Rendering Table Cells: To install the renderer as the default renderer for the JTable for Object.class

Renderers for tables can be installed for individual classes or for specific columns.

TableCellRenderer renderer = new EvenOddRenderer();
table.setDefaultRenderer(Object.class, renderer);

Save the current value in the cell being edited and stops the editing process

import javax.swing.JTable;
public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] argv) throws Exception {
    int rows = 10;
    int cols = 5;
    JTable table = new JTable(rows, cols);
    // Enable the ability to select a single cell
    table.setColumnSelectionAllowed(true);
    table.setRowSelectionAllowed(true);
    if (table.getCellEditor() != null) {
      table.getCellEditor().stopCellEditing();
    }
  }
}
