Class DefaultTreeSelectionModel

java.lang.Object
javax.swing.tree.DefaultTreeSelectionModel
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Cloneable, TreeSelectionModel
Direct Known Subclasses:
JTree.EmptySelectionModel
public class DefaultTreeSelectionModel extends Object implements Cloneable, Serializable, TreeSelectionModel
Default implementation of TreeSelectionModel. Listeners are notified whenever the paths in the selection change, not the rows. In order to be able to track row changes you may wish to become a listener for expansion events on the tree and test for changes from there.

resetRowSelection is called from any of the methods that update the selected paths. If you subclass any of these methods to filter what is allowed to be selected, be sure and message resetRowSelection if you do not message super. Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeans has been added to the java.beans package. Please see XMLEncoder.

    • setRowMapper

      public void setRowMapper(RowMapper newMapper)
      Sets the RowMapper instance. This instance is used to determine the row for a particular TreePath.
      Specified by:
      setRowMapper in interface TreeSelectionModel
      Parameters:
      newMapper - RowMapper to be set

    • getRowMapper

      public RowMapper getRowMapper()
      Returns the RowMapper instance that is able to map a TreePath to a row.
      Specified by:
      getRowMapper in interface TreeSelectionModel
      Returns:
      the RowMapper instance that is able to map a TreePath to a row

    • setSelectionMode

      public void setSelectionMode(int mode)
      Sets the selection model, which must be one of SINGLE_TREE_SELECTION, CONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION or DISCONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION. If mode is not one of the defined value, DISCONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION is assumed.

      This may change the selection if the current selection is not valid for the new mode. For example, if three TreePaths are selected when the mode is changed to SINGLE_TREE_SELECTION, only one TreePath will remain selected. It is up to the particular implementation to decide what TreePath remains selected.

      Setting the mode to something other than the defined types will result in the mode becoming DISCONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION.

      Specified by:
      setSelectionMode in interface TreeSelectionModel
      Parameters:
      mode - selection mode to be set

    • getSelectionMode

      public int getSelectionMode()
      Returns the selection mode, one of SINGLE_TREE_SELECTION, DISCONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION or CONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION.
      Specified by:
      getSelectionMode in interface TreeSelectionModel
      Returns:
      the current selection mode

    • setSelectionPath

      public void setSelectionPath(TreePath path)
      Sets the selection to path. If this represents a change, then the TreeSelectionListeners are notified. If path is null, this has the same effect as invoking clearSelection.
      Specified by:
      setSelectionPath in interface TreeSelectionModel
      Parameters:
      path - new path to select

    • setSelectionPaths

      public void setSelectionPaths(TreePath[] pPaths)
      Sets the selection. Whether the supplied paths are taken as the new selection depends upon the selection mode. If the supplied array is null, or empty, the selection is cleared. If the selection mode is SINGLE_TREE_SELECTION, only the first path in pPaths is used. If the selection mode is CONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION and the supplied paths are not contiguous, then only the first path in pPaths is used. If the selection mode is DISCONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION, then all paths are used.

      All null paths in pPaths are ignored.

      If this represents a change, all registered TreeSelectionListeners are notified.

      The lead path is set to the last unique path.

      The paths returned from getSelectionPaths are in the same order as those supplied to this method.

      Specified by:
      setSelectionPaths in interface TreeSelectionModel
      Parameters:
      pPaths - the new selection

    • addSelectionPath

      public void addSelectionPath(TreePath path)
      Adds path to the current selection. If path is not currently in the selection the TreeSelectionListeners are notified. This has no effect if path is null.
      Specified by:
      addSelectionPath in interface TreeSelectionModel
      Parameters:
      path - the new path to add to the current selection

    • addSelectionPaths

      public void addSelectionPaths(TreePath[] paths)
      Adds paths to the current selection. If any of the paths in paths are not currently in the selection the TreeSelectionListeners are notified. This has no effect if paths is null.

      The lead path is set to the last element in paths.

      If the selection mode is CONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION, and adding the new paths would make the selection discontiguous. Then two things can result: if the TreePaths in paths are contiguous, then the selection becomes these TreePaths, otherwise the TreePaths aren't contiguous and the selection becomes the first TreePath in paths.

      Specified by:
      addSelectionPaths in interface TreeSelectionModel
      Parameters:
      paths - the new path to add to the current selection

    • getSelectionRows

      public int[] getSelectionRows()
      Returns the selection in terms of rows. There is not necessarily a one-to-one mapping between the TreePaths returned from getSelectionPaths and this method. In particular, if a TreePath is not viewable (the RowMapper returns -1 for the row corresponding to the TreePath), then the corresponding row is not included in the returned array. For example, if the selection consists of two paths, A and B, with A at row 10, and B not currently viewable, then this method returns an array with the single entry 10.
      Specified by:
      getSelectionRows in interface TreeSelectionModel
      Returns:
      the selection in terms of rows

    • getMinSelectionRow

      whether the row is selected

    • resetRowSelection

      public void resetRowSelection()
      Updates this object's mapping from TreePath to rows. This should be invoked when the mapping from TreePaths to integers has changed (for example, a node has been expanded).

      You do not normally have to call this, JTree and its associated Listeners will invoke this for you. If you are implementing your own View class, then you will have to invoke this.

      This will invoke insureRowContinuity to make sure the currently selected TreePaths are still valid based on the selection mode.

      Specified by:
      resetRowSelection in interface TreeSelectionModel

    • insureRowContinuity

      protected void insureRowContinuity()
      Makes sure the currently selected TreePaths are valid for the current selection mode. If the selection mode is CONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION and a RowMapper exists, this will make sure all the rows are contiguous, that is, when sorted all the rows are in order with no gaps. If the selection isn't contiguous, the selection is reset to contain the first set, when sorted, of contiguous rows.

      If the selection mode is SINGLE_TREE_SELECTION and more than one TreePath is selected, the selection is reset to contain the first path currently selected.

    • arePathsContiguous

      protected boolean arePathsContiguous(TreePath[] paths)
      Returns true if the paths are contiguous, or this object has no RowMapper.
      Parameters:
      paths - array of paths to check
      Returns:
      whether the paths are contiguous, or this object has no RowMapper

    • canPathsBeAdded

      protected boolean canPathsBeAdded(TreePath[] paths)
      Used to test if a particular set of TreePaths can be added. This will return true if paths is null (or empty), or this object has no RowMapper, or nothing is currently selected, or the selection mode is DISCONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION, or adding the paths to the current selection still results in a contiguous set of TreePaths.
      Parameters:
      paths - array of TreePaths to check
      Returns:
      whether the particular set of TreePaths can be added

    • canPathsBeRemoved

      protected boolean canPathsBeRemoved(TreePath[] paths)
      Returns true if the paths can be removed without breaking the continuity of the model. This is rather expensive.

      oldLeadSelection - the old selection path

    • updateLeadIndex

      protected void updateLeadIndex()
      Updates the leadIndex instance variable.

    • insureUniqueness

      protected void insureUniqueness()
