Interface NodeFactory

public interface NodeFactory

Factory interface for distributed creation of project node's children. Implementation instances are assumed to be registered in layers at a location specific for the particular project type. Project types wanting to make use of NodeFactory can use the NodeFactorySupport.createCompositeChildren(org.netbeans.api.project.Project, java.lang.String) method to create the Project nodes's children.

public class FooBarLogicalViewProvider implements LogicalViewProvider {
    public Node createLogicalView() {
        return new FooBarRootNode(NodeFactorySupport.createCompositeChildren(myProject, "Projects/org-foo-bar-project/Nodes"));
    }
  
}
