I'm very new to Java Swing and I'm trying to create a JTable.  I need a
column of the table to display multiple types, such as a String in row
1, a JComboBox in row2, and a JRadioButton in row 3 for example.

I'm working on an editor of sorts and I need to create a table to
display the properties of a selected component.  Something like a 2
column Property/Value Table where the value may be any object such as a
string, a list of possible values in a comboBox, etc.

Any help or code snipets would be greatly appreciated!

I see here 2 ways:
1. May be you want to change table structure -
instead of having table with 2 columns (property name - value)
you may have table with 2 rows (name - value) or even with one row
and column header as "names" part.
2. Override
JTable:public Component prepareRenderer(TableCellRenderer renderer, int 
row, int column)

where you may return component you want.

If you want your table to be editable see prepareEditor.
