- javax.swing.RowFilter.Entry<M,I>
 
- 
- Type Parameters:
- M- the type of the model; for example- PersonModel
- I- the type of the identifier; when using- TableRowSorterthis will be- Integer
 
 public abstract static class RowFilter.Entry<M,I> extends Object AnEntryobject is passed to instances ofRowFilter, allowing the filter to get the value of the entry's data, and thus to determine whether the entry should be shown. AnEntryobject contains information about the model as well as methods for getting the underlying values from the model.- Since:
- 1.6

Method Detail- 
getModelpublic abstract M getModel() Returns the underlying model.- Returns:
- the model containing the data that this entry represents
 
 - 
getValueCountpublic abstract int getValueCount() Returns the number of values in the entry. For example, when used with a table this corresponds to the number of columns.- Returns:
- number of values in the object being filtered
 
 - 
getValuepublic abstract Object getValue(int index) Returns the value at the specified index. This may returnnull. When used with a table, index corresponds to the column number in the model.- Parameters:
- index- the index of the value to get
- Returns:
- value at the specified index
- Throws:
- IndexOutOfBoundsException- if index < 0 or >= getValueCount
 
 - 
getStringValuepublic String getStringValue(int index) Returns the string value at the specified index. If filtering is being done based onStringvalues this method is preferred to that ofgetValueasgetValue(index).toString()may return a different result thangetStringValue(index).This implementation calls getValue(index).toString()after checking fornull. Subclasses that provide different string conversion should override this method if necessary.- Parameters:
- index- the index of the value to get
- Returns:
- non-nullstring at the specified index
- Throws:
- IndexOutOfBoundsException- if index < 0 || >= getValueCount
 
 - 
getIdentifierpublic abstract I getIdentifier() Returns the identifer (in the model) of the entry. For a table this corresponds to the index of the row in the model, expressed as anInteger.- Returns:
- a model-based (not view-based) identifier for this entry
