Based on this example, the complete example example below illustrates the approach in the accepted answer. In particular,
The implementation of getRowCount()
in the TableModel
returns the size()
of the List<Employee>
, which is one less than the number of rows displayed in the table.
The implementation of getValueAt()
in the TableModel
illustrates the call to sum()
in the COLUMN_SALARY
and some possible display choices for the remaining columns in the extra row at the bottom.
The implementation of getViewRowCount()
in the TableRowSorter
enables the display of the extra row but precludes reasonable filtering.
