Enabling auto resize of JTable only if it fit view

问题:

I need to create a JTable inside JScrollPane with resizeable columns (when user increase column width - horizontal scrollbar appears). For this I have use table.setAutoResizeMode(JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_OFF);. Also, when viewport is wide enough to contain entire table - columns should stretch to fill viewport width. To accomplish this I have override getScrollableTracksViewportWidth() method of JTable class as follow:

@Override
public boolean getScrollableTracksViewportWidth() {
    return getPreferredSize().width < getParent().getWidth();
}

This approach works good, except one thing: when I first time try to resize column it return own width to start position. If I quickly resize column and release mouse table continue to work good. So, what is the reason of such behavior? Why table try to resize even if getScrollableTracksViewportWidth() returns false? Or, maybe, you can propose better solution for implementing such resize mode?

Bellow is a simple working example of above problem:

import javax.swing.*;

public class TestTable {
    private static Object[][] data = new Object[][] {
            { "a", "b", "c" },
            { "d", "e", "f" }
    };
    private static Object[] colNames = new Object[] { "1", "2", "3" };

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                JTable table = new JTable(data, colNames) {
                    @Override
                    public boolean getScrollableTracksViewportWidth() {
                        return getPreferredSize().width < getParent().getWidth();
                    }
                };
                table.setAutoResizeMode(JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_OFF);

                JFrame frame = new JFrame();
                frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
                frame.add(new JScrollPane(table));
                frame.pack();
                frame.setVisible(true);
            }
        });
    }
}

It seemed like the default doLayout() logic wasn't working when you tried to increase the size of a column when the horizontal scrollbar wasn't visible, so I got rid of the default logic and just accepted the width of the column without attempting to adjust it.

import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.table.*;

public class TestTable {
    private static Object[][] data = new Object[][] {
            { "a", "b", "c" },
            { "d", "e", "f" }
    };
    private static Object[] colNames = new Object[] { "1", "2", "3" };

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                JTable table = new JTable(data, colNames)
                {
                    @Override
                    public boolean getScrollableTracksViewportWidth()
                    {
                        return getPreferredSize().width < getParent().getWidth();
                    }

                    @Override
                    public void doLayout()
                    {
                        TableColumn resizingColumn = null;

                        if (tableHeader != null)
                            resizingColumn = tableHeader.getResizingColumn();

                        //  Viewport size changed. May need to increase columns widths

                        if (resizingColumn == null)
                        {
                            setAutoResizeMode(JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_ALL_COLUMNS);
                            super.doLayout();
                        }

                        //  Specific column resized. Reset preferred widths

                        else
                        {
                            TableColumnModel tcm = getColumnModel();

                            for (int i = 0; i < tcm.getColumnCount(); i++)
                            {
                                TableColumn tc = tcm.getColumn(i);
                                tc.setPreferredWidth( tc.getWidth() );
                            }

                            // Columns don't fill the viewport, invoke default layout

                            if (tcm.getTotalColumnWidth() < getParent().getWidth())
                                setAutoResizeMode(JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_ALL_COLUMNS);
                                super.doLayout();
                        }

                        setAutoResizeMode(JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_OFF);
                    }

                };
                table.setAutoResizeMode(JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_OFF);

                JFrame frame = new JFrame();
                frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
                frame.add(new JScrollPane(table));
                frame.pack();
                frame.setVisible(true);
            }
        });
    }
}

Edited to use AUTO_RESIZE_ALL_COLUMNS.
