# Class TablePosition<S,T>

java.lang.Object
javafx.scene.control.TablePositionBase<TableColumn<S,T>>
javafx.scene.control.TablePosition<S,T>

Type Parameters:
  `S` - The type of the items contained within the TableView (i.e. the same generic type as the S in TableView<S>).
  `T` - The type of the items contained within the TableColumn.

public class TablePosition<S,T> extends TablePositionBase<TableColumn<S,T>>
This class is used to represent a single row/column/cell in a TableView. This is used throughout the TableView API to represent which rows/columns/cells are currently selected, focused, being edited, etc. Note that this class is immutable once it is created.

Because the TableView can have different `selection modes`, the row and column properties in TablePosition can be 'disabled' to represent an entire row or column. This is done by setting the unrequired property to -1 or null.

  - ### TablePosition

    public TablePosition(TableView<S> tableView, int row, TableColumn<S,T> tableColumn)
    Constructs a TablePosition instance to represent the given row/column position in the given TableView instance. Both the TableView and TableColumn are referenced weakly in this class, so it is possible that they will be null when their respective getters are called.
    Parameters:
      `tableView` - The TableView that this position is related to.
      `row` - The row that this TablePosition is representing.
      `tableColumn` - The TableColumn instance that this TablePosition represents.

- ## Method Details

  - ### getColumn

    public int getColumn()
    The column index that this TablePosition represents in the TableView. It is -1 if the TableView or TableColumn instances are null at the time the class is instantiated (i.e. it is computed at construction).
    Specified by:
      `getColumn` in class `TablePositionBase<TableColumn<S,T>>`
    Returns:
      the column index that this TablePosition represents in the TableView

  - ### getTableView

    public final TableView<S> getTableView()
    The TableView that this TablePosition is related to.
    Returns:
      the TableView

  - ### getTableColumn

    public final TableColumn<S,T> getTableColumn()
    The TableColumn that this TablePosition represents in the TableView.
    Overrides:
      `getTableColumn` in class `TablePositionBase<TableColumn<S,T>>`
    Returns:
      the TableColumn that this TablePosition represents in the TableView

  - ### toString

    public String toString()
    Returns a string representation of this `TablePosition` object.
    Overrides:
      `toString` in class `Object`
    Returns:
      a string representation of this `TablePosition` object.
