Stop editing jtable cells programatically

[krimen]

Hi people, I'm developing a program that involves a lot of tables, of course I want to save in a file what the user does, so I save the tables as objects in a file.

Problem:
when the cell editor is not working, this is, when the table has no focus at all (and I mean at all because when the Jtables lost the focus, they're still editable, if I write something with the focus on other object, the text appears in the cell I left "open") I can perfectly save the tables as objects in a file.

When I try to save with the cell editor unclosed, I get an exception (therefore the saving is aborted).

I really don't know how to close the f***ing cell editor, and I've triyed everything that people say the use on the forums...

Clear cell editor code (not working) :

public void ClearTablesSelection(){
        System.out.println("Stopping cell editors");
        
        LocationTable.getSelectionModel().clearSelection();  
        if (LocationTable.getCellEditor() != null) {
            LocationTable.getCellEditor().stopCellEditing();
        }
       //the same for the rest of the tables...
}

My saving code (working with the cell editor closed):

 public void SaveProject(String Filename){
        // gather all the objects
        ClearTablesSelection();
        
        try{  // Catch errors in I/O if necessary.
            // Open a file to write to, named SavedObjects.sav.
            FileOutputStream saveFile=new FileOutputStream(Filename);

            // Create an ObjectOutputStream to put objects into save file.
            ObjectOutputStream save = new ObjectOutputStream(saveFile);

            // Now we do the save
            
            //EnableTables(false);           
            
                save.writeObject(lcm.getModel());
            
                save.writeObject(wrm.getModel());
            
                save.writeObject(ws100m.getModel());
            
                save.writeObject(wcm.getModel());
            
                save.writeObject(agm.getModel());
            
                save.writeObject(agp.getModel());
            
                save.writeObject(rwm.getModel());

            // Close the file.
            save.close(); // This also closes saveFile.
            System.out.println("Project succesfully saved to: " + Filename);
        }   
        catch(Exception exc){
            exc.printStackTrace(); // If there was an error, print the info.
        }
    }

Thanks in advance

Table Stop Editing « Java Tips Weblog

Is this just supposed to work magic?

where is the procedure?
if I create a property it should contain something, am I wrong?

JTable table = new JTable(...);
table.putClientProperty("terminateEditOnFocusLost", Boolean.TRUE);

this just doesn't work

if (table.isEditing())
    table.getCellEditor().stopCellEditing();

To anybody reading this, create an empty frame with a JTable and a JButton, the JTable containing a model with some empty cells, run the program, edit one celll and do not press enter, the click the button to quit the focus from th JTable, then write something, and check if youre editing the cell you left open with the focus on the button or not. This is my problem.

The code from the above link works fine or I wouldn't go to all the trouble of creating the posting.

That is your job. You post the code you wrote to test the problem. Its callled a SSCCE. Short, Self Contained, Correct Example

The client property and other suggestions in the blog seemed good when I tested them as you described (button both focusable and nonfocusable, since you talked about writing something). So a SSCCE sounds like a very good idea.
