28/**
29 * The AccessibleTableModelChange interface describes a change to
30 * the table model. The attributes of the model change can be
31 * obtained by the following methods:
32 * <ul>
33 * <li> public int getType()
34 * <li> public int getFirstRow();
35 * <li> public int getLastRow();
36 * <li> public int getFirstColumn();
37 * <li> public int getLastColumn();
38 * </ul>
39 * The model change type returned by getType() will be one of:
40 * <ul>
41 * <li> INSERT - one or more rows and/or columns have been inserted
42 * <li> UPDATE - some of the table data has changed
43 * <li> DELETE - one or more rows and/or columns have been deleted
44 * </ul>
45 * The affected area of the table can be determined by the other
46 * four methods which specify ranges of rows and columns
47 *
