Edit table cells (e.g. check box, text fields etc.)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

In Issue #99 reading of different table cell values of different types was
implemented.

I've an application where the table cells also have underlying editors, I
can click at at a table cell and edit a text field, or click a combo box in
a table cell to edit the value.

The editors are set like this:

table.getColumnModel().getColumn(1).setCellEditor(new DefaultCellEditor(new
JTextField()));

It would be a nice enhancement to be able to get a JTextFieldFixture (same
with JComboBoxFixture, JCheckBoxFixture) for the cell while I'm editing it. 

I suppose this issue doesn't need a high priority, I already found a
workaround for my tests, but the workaround is kind of dirty, so I thought,
I would also add an issue here. :)

Hi Mattias,

I've been thinking a way to return a specific fixture for a table cell, 
something like: 

JTextComponentFixture textBox = table.cell(row(0).column(0)).textBox();

but I think it will not scale. Users having their own custom cell editors will 
not be
able to extend it (we are currently having the same problem with
ContainerFixture...but a fix is coming soon).

I'm thinking about this:

table.cell(row(0).column(0)).enter("Hello")

and the fixture for the JTable will know how to enter the text depending on the 
type
of editor. For check boxes:

table.cell(row(0).column(0)).enter("true")

how it is actually done is using something like a cellWriter (similar to the 
current
cell reader that we have). Users can register cellWriters to the fixture, but 
the API
to edit a table does not need to change.

Thoughts?

Thanks!
-Alex

• Changed state: Fixed

Set the module as a label, instead of being part of the title.
