AdvancedJTable creates and manages an AdvancedTableHeader subclass, AdvancedJTable.InnerTableHeader.

You can get an instance of the header as you would with JTable:

public JTableHeader getTableHeader();

or set it with:

public void setTableHeader(JTableHeader header);

Additionally, you can use AdvancedTableHeader in your custom JTable subclass:

JTable table = new JTable();

AdvancedTableHeader header = new AdvancedTableHeader(table.getColumnModel());

table.setTableHeader(header);
