How to change color of JTable row having a particular value
I am trying to change the color of entire row which is having a column of value "FAIL". Here is my code, which is changing only that particular column. But i want to change the entire row.

Can anyone please give me an idea?

Code:
public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(
JTable table, Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus,int row,int col)
{

String s = table.getModel().getValueAt(row,col).toString();

if(s.equalsIgnoreCase("Fail")) {
setForeground(Color.red);
}else {
setForeground(null);
}

return super.getTableCellRendererComponent(table, value, isSelected, hasFocus,
row, col);

}

If you know the column in the model that the test value will reside in, set it as a constant and your could would end up looking like this.

Code:
public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(
JTable table, Object value, boolean isSelected,
boolean hasFocus, int row, int col)
{
Component comp = super.getTableCellRendererComponent(
table, value, isSelected, hasFocus, row, col);

String s = table.getModel().getValueAt(row, VALIDATION_COLUMN ).toString();

if(s.equalsIgnoreCase("Fail"))
{
comp.setForeground(Color.red);
}
else
{
comp.setForeground(null);
}

return( comp );
}
