java.awt.swing.JTable.JTable(int columns, int rows) does not work as
specified in the JavaDoc.

(See JavaDoc comments)
"public JTable(int numColumns,
              int numRows)

      Constructs a JTable with numColumns and numRows of empty cells using
      the DefaultTableModel. The columns will
      have names of the form "A", "B", "C", etc.
      Parameters:
            numColumns - The number of columns the table holds
            numRows - The number of rows the table holds
"
In fact this ctor does not work as specified.

Here is the example demonstrating the bug:
------------------ Test.java -----------------
import java.awt.swing.*;
import java.awt.swing.table.*;

class Test {
  public static void main(String[] argv) {
   try {
    int col = 3, row = 1;
    System.out.println(" create object : new JTable("+col+","+row+");");
    
    JTable table = new JTable(col, row);
    
    System.out.println(" number of columns is "+table.getModel().getColumnCount()+" but should be "+col);
    System.out.println(" number of rows is "+table.getModel().getRowCount()+" but should be "+row);
    
    for(int i=0;i<table.getModel().getColumnCount();i++)
      System.out.println("Name of the "+i+" column : "+table.getModel().getColumnName(i));
      
   } catch(Exception e) {
     System.out.println(e+" has been thrown");
   }
   System.exit(0);
  }
}

-------------- Output from the test -----------------
:\>java Test
 create object : new JTable(3,1);
  number of columns is 0 but should be 3
  number of rows is 1 but should be 1
------------------------------------------------------
