Class TreeSelectionEvent

java.lang.Object
java.util.EventObject
javax.swing.event.TreeSelectionEvent
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable
public class TreeSelectionEvent extends EventObject
An event that characterizes a change in the current selection. The change is based on any number of paths. TreeSelectionListeners will generally query the source of the event for the new selected status of each potentially changed row.

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.

    • TreeSelectionEvent

      public TreeSelectionEvent(Object source, TreePath[] paths, boolean[] areNew, TreePath oldLeadSelectionPath, TreePath newLeadSelectionPath)
      Represents a change in the selection of a TreeSelectionModel. paths identifies the paths that have been either added or removed from the selection.
      Parameters:
      source - source of event
      paths - the paths that have changed in the selection
      areNew - a boolean array indicating whether the paths in paths are new to the selection
      oldLeadSelectionPath - the previous lead selection path
      newLeadSelectionPath - the new lead selection path

    • TreeSelectionEvent

      public TreeSelectionEvent(Object source, TreePath path, boolean isNew, TreePath oldLeadSelectionPath, TreePath newLeadSelectionPath)
      Represents a change in the selection of a TreeSelectionModel. path identifies the path that has been either added or removed from the selection.
      Parameters:
      source - source of event
      path - the path that has changed in the selection
      isNew - whether or not the path is new to the selection, false means path was removed from the selection.
      oldLeadSelectionPath - the previous lead selection path
      newLeadSelectionPath - the new lead selection path

  • Method Details

    • getPaths

      public TreePath[] getPaths()
      Returns the paths that have been added or removed from the selection.
      Returns:
      copy of the array of TreePath objects for this event.

    • getPath

      public TreePath getPath()
      Returns the first path element.
      Returns:
      the first TreePath element represented by this event

    • isAddedPath

      public boolean isAddedPath()
      Returns whether the path identified by getPath was added to the selection. A return value of true indicates the path identified by getPath was added to the selection. A return value of false indicates getPath was selected, but is no longer selected.
      Returns:
      true if getPath was added to the selection, false otherwise

    • isAddedPath

      public boolean isAddedPath(TreePath path)
      Returns whether the specified path was added to the selection. A return value of true indicates the path identified by path was added to the selection.

This method is only valid for the paths returned from getPaths(); invoking with a path not included in getPaths() throws an IllegalArgumentException.
      Parameters:
      path - the path to test
      Returns:
      true if path was added to the selection, false otherwise
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if path is not contained in getPaths

      Parameters:
      index - the index of the path to test
      Returns:
