In javax.swing.JTable specification there is written:

public void sorterChanged(RowSorterEvent e)

    RowSorterListener notification that the RowSorter has changed in some way.
                                                                  ^^^^^^^^^^^
    Specified by:
        sorterChanged in interface RowSorterListener

    Parameters:
        e - the RowSorterEvent describing the change

But it is not clear in what way the RowSorter should be changed, to invoke sorterChanged method. For example, this method isn't invoked during execution of the following pieces of code:

-----------------------------------------------
JTable table = new JTable(someDataModel);
DefaultRowSorter rs1 = new TableRowSorter(someDataModel);
DefaultRowSorter rs2 = new TableRowSorter(someDataModel);
table.setRowSorter(rs1);
table.setRowSorter(null);
table.setRowSorter(rs2);
--------------------------------------------------
JTable table = new JTable(someDataModel);
DefaultRowSorter rs = new TableRowSorter(someDataModel);
table.setRowSorter(rs);

LinkedList<RowSorter.SortKey> keys = new LinkedList<RowSorter.SortKey>();
keys.add(new RowSorter.SortKey(0, SortOrder.UNSORTED));
rs.setSortKeys(keys);
--------------------------------------------------

It is possible to understand when this method is invoked, but it is desirable to extend and clarify the spec, because JCK tests can't be written using such unclear description.
