How can we add JTable in JPanel with null layout

Question

We want to add JTable into JPanel whose layout is null. JPanel contains other components. We have to add JTable at proper positions

Answer 1

The JPanel should have some layout manager.

JTable should be added into the JScrollPane which actually should be added into the JPanel.

If we don't care about the precision of components size you can use pure BorderLayout and combine it with FlowLayout and GridLayout. if you need precision - use jgoodies FormLayout.

The FormLayout is really tricky one, but you can play a little with WindowBuilder (which is embedded into Eclipse) and a look at the code it generates. It may look complicated but it is just an ignorance
