The reshape() method was removed from the JTable class in JDK-1.3D.

It breaks binary compatibility.
The JLS says: "

13. Binary Compatibility

...

13.4.5 Class Body and Member Declarations

...

Deleting a class member or constructor that is not declared
private may cause a linkage error if the member or constructor is
used by a pre-existing binary, even if the member was an
instance method that was overriding a superclass method. This is
because, during resolution, the linker looks only in the
class that was identified at compile time.


"

Thus, this method should be restored.
