Single click to edit a JTable Cell

currently the JTable cell is selected on first click, and on the second one it is edited.

Is it possible to directly edit it on the first click?

How do you make a JTable cell editable?

How do I highlight a cell in JTable?

You can select cells by simulating clicks. To simulate clicks on JTable cells, you can use the ClickCell , ClickCellR , DblClickCell and similar actions of the JTable object. All of these actions have parameters that specify the row and the column that contain the needed cell.

In the DefaultCellEditor api there is a method named setClickCountToStart

    DefaultCellEditor singleclick = new DefaultCellEditor(new JTextField());
    singleclick.setClickCountToStart(1);

    //set the editor as default on every column
    for (int i = 0; i < table.getColumnCount(); i++) {
        table.setDefaultEditor(table.getColumnClass(i), singleclick);
    }
