Adding a JProgressBar to a JTable Cell

Create a cell TableCellRenderer which uses a JProgressBar as follows:
import java.awt.Component;

import javax.swing.JProgressBar;
import javax.swing.JTable;
import javax.swing.table.TableCellRenderer;

public class ProgressCellRenderer extends JProgressBar
                        implements TableCellRenderer {

  /**
   * Creates a JProgressBar with the range 0,100.
   */
  public ProgressCellRenderer(){
    super(0, 100);
    setValue(0);
    setString("0%");
    setStringPainted(true);
  }

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

    //value is a percentage e.g. 95%
    final String sValue = value.toString();
    int index = sValue.indexOf('%');
    if (index != -1) {
      int p = 0;
      try{
        p = Integer.parseInt(sValue.substring(0, index));
      }
      catch(NumberFormatException e){
      }
      setValue(p);
      setString(sValue);
    }
    return this;
  }
}
Apply the cell renderer to a specific column in the table:
JTable myTable = new JTable();
TableColumn myCol = myTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(1);
myCol.setCellRenderer(new ProgressCellRenderer());
Now whenever you update a value in that column, the JProgressBar will get updated accordingly.
