DefaultTableModel not accepting Object type


I have been trying to send some data from an Editable JComboBox to a JXTable. The code for it goes like this : 

private void selectTestActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {                                           
    JTextField editorComponent = (JTextField) testName_cb.getEditor().getEditorComponent();
    System.out.println(editorComponent.getText());
    String data = editorComponent.getText();
    Object row = data; /* String to Object casting */
    DefaultTableModel model = (DefaultTableModel) testsSelected_table.getModel();
    model.addRow(row); /* Error : Cast row to Object or Vector */
}

But the last line of the method model.addRow(row); says Cast row to Object or Vector, which it already is.
I may be missing some conceptual or logical part as a beginner. So thought of posting a question here. Can anybody point out my mistake? I would gratefully accept any suggestion(s).

Thanks!!!

Solution

  • It should be an Object[]. You can do Object[] row = new Object[] { data }; assuming all you want the row to have is one column or data.

    Otherwise you can use model.setValueAt(value, row, col) to set a single value, if that's what you're really trying to do.
