JTable cell editor number format

Question

I need to show numbers in jTable with exact 2 decimal places. To accomplish this I have created a custom cell editor as:

public class NumberCellEditor extend         


        

Answer 1

Use the locale to your advantage:

  //Locale myLocale = Locale.GERMANY;  //... or better, the current Locale

  Locale myLocale = Locale.getDefault(); // better still

  NumberFormat numberFormatB = NumberFormat.getInstance(myLocale);
  numberFormatB.setMaximumFractionDigits(2);
  numberFormatB.setMinimumFractionDigits(2);
  numberFormatB.setMinimumIntegerDigits(1);

  edit.setFormatterFactory(new javax.swing.text.DefaultFormatterFactory(
                    new NumberFormatter(numberFormatB)));
