How to get current node element for recursive node.

Question

Hello Xperts,
I have a requirement where I need to find the current node element of the recursive node.
I was trying following code for the same
Data:
selected_elem type ref to if_wd_context_element.
selected_elem  = WDEVENT->GET_CONTEXT_ELEMENT( NAME = 'CONTEXT_ELEMENT' ).
selected_elem  ->get_static_attributes(
    IMPORTING
      static_attributes = sel_attri ).
But it does not work for me and I always get 1st node value.
Please help me in this issue.

Hello ,
         If you implementing a simple tree ( not table tree )  and you want the selected element for
OnLoadChildren event  .
Then create an importing parameter CONTEXT_ELEMENT  of type IF_WD_CONTEXT_ELEMENT
in the event handler of onLoadChildren .
Webdynpro framework automatically filled up the context element with the current node in the tree .
I tried it , It really worked for me .
If you have a table tree then you need to create an importing parameter PATH  of type String in tha event handler .
Webdynpro frame automatically fills the PATH .
the use can use the following method to get the element from the PATH .
wd_context->path_get_element( path ).
I tried it , It also  worked for me .
