Display Checkbox along Tree node and its child elements

Experts,
I want to display a checkbox in front of the Tree displayed in the view. This is used for me to select the child item value for my selection condition.
let say if the user selects the node, all the child elements will be used for search condition.
Otherwise, if the node is expanded, then the checkbox selected in the child element will be used for search condition...
Can u ppl suggest me how to design it, if possible can u share some sample code or procedure to customize the Tree as per the requirement...
thanx in advance,
James...

How to avoid the selection of a Parent node and its child node at a time?

Example:
consider the below JTree.
Parent1
---->Parent2
-------->Child3
Parent3
---->Parent4
My requirement :
Parent1 and Parent3 can be selected at a time(using ctrl keys)
Parent2 and Parent4 can be selected at a time
Parent1 and Parent2 should not allowed to select at a time.
In general : A parent and any of its child should not be selected at a time.
How to achieve this? Anyone please help me.

I am very sorry.Whatever for? It's a valid question.
How do i implement a custom TreeSelectionModel?I would start by going through the source of DefaultTreeSelectionModel so see how the default selection is handled. Also probably check out JTree.EmptySelectionModel to see how selection is prevented.
Which methods to override?Methods in the class you choose to extend, obviously. But before that you need to firm up certain design decisions: if a parent node is selected and the user attempts to select one of its child nodes, do you select the child and deselect the parent or do nothing/ and vice versa.
etc.... may form the basis for a future, more specific question accompanied by a [_SSCCE_|http://mindprod.com/jgloss/sscce.html].

Setting Dialog, Tree Node and Menu Font in JDeveloper 11.1.1.4/11.1.1.5

Hi,
I'm near sighted and thus dependent on being able to choose larger fonts. For the code editor, this poses no problem. For the widgets in the views surrounding the editor (containing tree nodes) and dialogs (with the Preferences dialog being one example), the font is very small at high screen resolutions (I don't want to resort to a lower resolution since I would like the fonts to appear as detailed as possible).
Is there any way to override the menu, tree node, and dialog font via command line switches and/or property/config files during JDeveloper startup in a platform independent way?
If it can't be done platform independently, what are the necessary steps on Linux (probably for the GTK lib) and Windows?
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Holger

I previously developed under full screen option and my PC resolution was 1600x1200. But when the application was ran on other screens it was displaying with some page contents being cut out. It was due to other machines running on lower resoultion. I will need now redesign the pages to run on user defined lower resolution of 1280x1024. How do I setup Jdeveloper design tab to show for 1280x1024.
Thanks

To Obtain parent and its child categories

Hi,
I have a "categories" table. I use MySQL.
categories
category_id int(10)
category_name varchar(255)
parent_category_id int(10)
category_id category_name parent_category_id
1 A 0 -- 0 represents parent level
2 B 0
3 C 1
4 D 1
5 E 2
I need a query to display parent and its child categories like:
category_id category_name parent_category_id
1 A 0
3 C 1
4 D 1
Thanks.

Can't help you with MySQL.
But if you google for "mysql start with connect by", you may find what you need.

Tree Node and Ampersand

Hi,
I need to place ampersands in tree node text property. To get the text
rendered right I need to provide the text as, for example, Bed '&+amp+;'
Breakfast.
This tree node is rendering well in the browser as "Bed & Breakfast".
But if an action is associated with the tree node and I run the app
the tree node is rendering to "Bed '&+amp+;' Breakfast".
"&+amp+;" means the well formed XHTML for ampersand, if I had written this as it should be it would render in this post as &.
Is there any workaround?
Thanks.
Stephan

The Tree Node is now rendering right, but I run into another problem. After selection I need to display the Tree Node text in a static text component. which worked with this code:
public String node_action() {
        String fullId = tree1.getCookieSelectedTreeNode();
        String id = fullId.substring(fullId.lastIndexOf(":")+1);
        TreeNode selectedNode = (TreeNode) this.getForm1().findComponentById(id);
        String category = selectedNode.getParentTreeNode((TreeNode) selectedNode).getText();
        if ( category.indexOf("&") != -1 ) {
            getSessionBean1().getClassified().setCategory(category.replace("&", "&"));
        else {
            getSessionBean1().getClassified().setCategory(category);
        String subCategory = selectedNode.getText();
        if ( subCategory.indexOf("&") != -1 ) {
           getSessionBean1().getClassified().setSubCategory(subCategory.replace("&", "&"));
        else {
           getSessionBean1().getClassified().setSubCategory(subCategory);
        categoryTextfield.setText(getSessionBean1().getClassified().getSubCategory());
        categoryTextfield.setVisible(true);
        return null;
}(some & in the code section are original meant to be the XHTML for ampersand.)
but for the few Tree Nodes which are prerendered now, the call
String subCategory = selectedNode.getText(); returns null.
How can I get the text of for those prerendered Tree Node?
Thanks.

Folder icon display at richfaces tree node

Hello All,
I would like to use richfaces tree structure.
But the issue with that is the folder icon display at each tree node.
For some reason i don't want the folder icon at the tree node.
Is there anyway to get rid of that?
I tried to change the image (iconFolder.gif) to some 1X1 pixel image in the richfaces jar file.
But when i added the new jar with new image for icon, that image is not loading.
I'm using Jboss4.2 as my application server.
Please help me to remove the folder display at tree node.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Elizabath

Hi,
I could see the icon attribute to specify the folder icon at the node. I placed a 1x1 pixel image as the iconfolder image. But that results in a blank pixel at the node. I wish to get rid of that.
Also i wanted to change the navigation images too. i would like to have the + and - sign images instead of arrows.
Any suggestions?

How to directly change the text of a tree node once its in the tree

How can I directly change the text of a tree node once its in the tree.
I have a property box which fires an eventevery time it is edited
(this is currently just output to the screen via println)
What i want is for the tree node to take the updated text that is in the text box every time
thus giving tree labels that update as you type
PS. i have access to the tree node (DefaultMutableTreeNode) from the code that hanldes
the text box event

... use the setUserObject() method of your DefaultMutableTreeNode, that'll set the text of the node.
however, you probably need to do a treeModel.nodeChanged(node) with your tree model, to get the display updated.

Using checkboxes as tree nodes

Hi friends,
can I add checkboxes as tree nodes? if yes, how this can be done?
Thanks in advances.

Hi,
sorry, but this question is not really easy to parse ( I tried two times and gave up ), can you reword it. What is it that you want to synchronize with a tree selection ?

Move node and its silings from one jtree to another

Hi,
I am trying to move JTree nodes and its siblings from one JTree to another. If anyone has the code, please post it on the website or mail to [email protected]
Thanks
Pavan

Pavan,
You may have to do a sanity check before adding it.
Better run the program in a debugger and have a break point at the clipBoard.put() line. Else system.out.println() lines will kill enormouse programming time rather than using debugger.
Also in following this thread, i found that you may have to be bit more thorough with the DefaultMutableTreeNode class first.
Thanks,
ananth
Thomas,
for (int p = 0; p < jtree.getSelectionCount(); p++) {
               System.out.println(".3.......p= "+p);
node =
=
(EuamDefaultMutableTreeNode)paths[p].getLastPathCompon
nt();
                    clipBoard.put(node.toString(), node);
               System.out.println(".4...........");
Giving error at clipBoard.put()
line....java.lang.NullPointerException
..Any idea why?
Thanks.

Hi Kartik,
This one is similar to my question to print and email invoice at same time. I pass itcpo-tdgetotf = 'X' in order to get otfdata and send email with the attachment of otfdata.
Now I have data in otfdata, but when I call print_otf function, I clear out itcpo-tdgetotf, and passed
itcpo-tddest = device_type but I still get error message said 'Handler not valid for open spool request'.
Can you give me a working example that you have otfdata table and print data from that table. I also post my question on other thread
submit report and export to memory
thanks

XML element,if not including any attributes and/or child elements then

XML element in SQLX,if not including any attributes and/or child elements then the tag should not appear, how to achive this?
ex:Consider for <enumeration> tag where it is having some value.
<attribute>
<name>Ethernet Access</name>
<enumeration>
<StringValue>Bandwidth</StringValue>
</enumeration>
</attribute>
When <enumeration> tag is not have any Value in this, then output should be as follows.
<attribute>
<name>Ethernet Access</name>
</attribute>
But what i am getting is
<attribute>
<name>Ethernet Access</name>
</enumeration>
</attribute>
Please suggest me the solution for this.
I tried , but when xmlelement() is not having data it will display empty tag ie </enumeration>, If xmlforest() are null it wont show tag, But i have to use xmlelement only. how can that be achived using xmlelement .

Use a SQL case - when - else end construct to only execute the xmlelement if data is present. The SQL/XML standard is very clear, xmlElement will generate an empty element if no data is present. xmlforest will not.

Exception:"Decrease the number of char between the beginning of the document and its root element"

I'm now using a javabean in my jsp page to parse xml;when my xml file's size is
about 10k,it just work fine;when my xml file's size became 50k,it throws the followng
Exception:
Failed to open xml document,Failed to retrieve Public id or system id from the
document. Decrease the number of char between the beginning of the document and
its root element. But when I run this javabean in JBuild ,it works fine no matter
how big the xml file becomes;
Why? the error message is in the attachment.

The prologue must be included at the top of the document, followed by the root
          element.

Help with building a JTree using tree node and node renderers

Hi,
I am having a few problems with JTree's. basically I want to build JTree from a web spider. The webspide searches a website checking links and stores the current url that is being processed as a string in the variable msg. I wan to use this variable to build a JTree in a new class and then add it to my GUI. I have created a tree node class and a renderer node class, these classes are built fine. can someone point me in the direction for actually using these to build my tree in a seperate class and then displaying it in a GUI class?

I beleive that this line of code is required:
treeText.addObject(msgInfo);
I have placed it where the action events start the spider, but i keep getting this error:
cannot resolve symbol
symbol : method addObject (java.lang.String)
location: class javax.swing.JTextArea
treeText.addObject(msgInfo);
Also the jtree is not showing the window that I want it to and I am not too sure why. could you have a look to see why? i think it needs a fresh pair of eyes.
Many thanks

Custom tree node and DefaultTreeModel

Hello,
I would like to know if it's possible to use the following custom tree node with the DefaultTreeModel:
class MyTreeNode extends DefaultMutableTreeNode{
private String _argument = null;
public MyTreeNode(){}
public MyTreeNode(Object node, String argument){
     super(node);
      _argument = argument;
}I have tried it and it's not working but I think in theory it should work. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
The problem is that the tree won't display or insert the custom node when the insertNodeAt(...) method of
the DefaultTreeModel is called. I also tried using a custom tree listener and calling the .reload() method directly.
Any help will be very appreciated.
Thanks in advanced.

Are you sure it's not being inserted into the model,
and just not being displayed?
Are you calling nodesWereInserted() after your
insertion?Thanks for your reply.
I've modified my app. so that the following method will populate the tree for testing only:
public void populateTree()
    MyTreeNode root = new MyTreeNode("Root Node", "test");
    DefaultTreeModel treeModel = new DefaultTreeModel(root);
    JTree tree = new JTree(treeModel);
    tree.setEditable(true);
    tree.getSelectionModel().setSelectionMode(TreeSelectionModel.SINGLE_TREE_SELECTION);
    tree.setShowsRootHandles(true);
    JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(tree);
    setLayout(new GridLayout(1,0));
    add(scrollPane);
    int childIdx[] = {0,1};
    String p1Name = new String("Parent 1");
    String p2Name = new String("Parent 2");
    String c1Name = new String("Child 1");
    String c2Name = new String("Child 2");
    MyTreeNode p1 = new MyTreeNode(p1Name, "test");
    MyTreeNode p2 = new MyTreeNode(p2Name, "test");
    MyTreeNode c1 = new MyTreeNode(c1Name, "test");
    MyTreeNode c2 = new MyTreeNode(c2Name, "test");
    treeModel.insertNodeInto(p1, root, 0);
    treeModel.insertNodeInto(p2, root, 1);
    treeModel.nodesWereInserted(root, childIdx);
    treeModel.insertNodeInto(c1, p1, 0);
    treeModel.insertNodeInto(c2, p1, 1);
    treeModel.nodesWereInserted(p1, childIdx);
    treeModel.reload();
}And the result is that the "Root Node" will be displayed with "Parent1" and "Parent2" but "Parent1" won't have any children. Furthermore, if I try to remove "Parent1" using:
treeModel.removeNodeFromParent(p1);I will get an exception saying that node p1 has no parent, which suggests that the parent/child relation
is not being assigned by the model, even though the nodes (p1, p2) are displayed in the tree showing "Root node" as the parent. This is very strange.
Please help.
