How to add and delete a row in a JTable.

[C-man]

Well I have a JTable set up with my own table model. Now how to I add, and
delete a row, or delete all rows and all that? Do I just make an addRow
function in my TableModel. If so, how do I make the function so that some
can call addRow(item1,item2,item3,item4...) and put an ambiguous amount of
items and have it add them to the columns that are in the table? Does that
make sense? Any help would be great.

Thanks

Yeah, sure, providing an addRow method is a fine idea, if it makes sense
for your model. As for how to do it, you first arrange for the model to
report the new information if asked (how you do this depends on how you
store the data for the table in your custom model; something we can't
possibly know), and then you fire an appropriate event. If you inherit
your custom model from AbstractTableModel (which you should...) then you
get a fireTableRowsInserted method that will fire the event for you, so
you just delegate that part to the superclass.
