TreeTableView Model

org.netbeans.spi.viewmodel

Defines API for sharing of Tree Table View.

Support for tree table view. The view is described via models - TreeModel, TableModel and NodeModel. Filters can be applied to each model - TreeModelFilter, TableModelFilter and NodeModelFilter. The view listens on changes in the models and filters and updates itself accordingly.

What is New (see all changes)?

• Sep 25 '09 Introduction of AsynchronousModelFilter.

  This API introduced AsynchronousModelFilter that can be used by clients to override the default threading of their model implementations.

• Sep 1 '09 Check extension to NodeModel.

  This API change allows to change a node selection in the tree table view. SelectionChanged event is used to select a set of nodes (rows).

  Added classes:
  org.netbeans.spi.viewmodel.ModelEvent.SelectionChanged,

• Mar 8 '09 Check extension to NodeModel.

  This API change allows to display check-boxes next to the node icons in the tree column.

  Added classes:
  org.netbeans.spi.viewmodel.CheckNodeModel, org.netbeans.spi.viewmodel.CheckNodeModelFilter

• Jun 2 '08 Extension to NodeModel.

  This API change is necessary for the redesign of the debugger UI and to be able to better control node expansions.

  Added classes:
  org.netbeans.spi.viewmodel.TreeExpansionModelFilter

  Changed classes:
  Models.TreeFeatures - final class with a private constructor changed to an abstract class.

  Added methods:
  Models.createNodes(),

  Added fields:
  ModelEvent.EXPANSION_MASK

• Jun 6 '07 Extension to NodeModel.

  Add ability to in-place rename and copy/paste functionality to nodes in debugger views. Also, the models needs to have a way to provide an icon with arbitrary extension. Therefore following methods are provided with new ExtendedNodeModel and ExtendedNodeModelFilter interfaces and are also added into CompoundModel: canRename(), canCopy(), canCut(), clipboardCopy(), clipboardCut(), getPasteTypes(), setName(), getIconBaseWithExtension().

Use Cases

Used by debugger to display various information - threads, call stack, variables, etc.
