Description
A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
I would like to add the ability to move a row (or rows) up and down in the table without modifying the underlying data structure. This would be a simple task if I could extend from DefaultRowSorter and have access to the member variables. Unfortunately these variables are marked Private.
JUSTIFICATION :
Allows developers the ability to leverage existing Java code without having to reinvent the wheel.
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
When I extend from DefaultRowSorter I would like to have access to its members and methods. Declaring these Protected would allow for a developer to extend from the class and use the existing code.
ACTUAL -
When I extend from DefaultRowSorter I do not have access to some of its members and methods because they are declared private.
