Errata
Following is a list of errors (and their corrections) in the current edition of the book.
- On page 113 of Chapter 4 the tableSelectionChanged( ) method behaves improperly in certain scenarios. The if (!clearing) line needs to be changed to if (!clearing && table.getSelectedRow( ) > -1) in order for the code to work properly in all scenarios.
