Field Detail

ROOT_PATH

public static final TreePath ROOT_PATH
Constructor Detail

TreePath

public TreePath(String key)
Constructs a TreePath containing only a single element. This is usually used to construct a TreePath for the the root of the TreeModel.


TreePath

public TreePath(TreePath parent,
                String key)
Constructs a new TreePath, which is the path identified by parent ending in lastElement.

Method Detail

getObjectPath

public Object[] getObjectPath(TreeModel model)
Returns an ordered array of Objects containing the components of this TreePath. The first element (index 0) is the root.

Returns:
an array of Objects representing the TreePath
See Also:
#TreePath()

getLastPathObject

public Object getLastPathObject(TreeModel model)
Returns the last component of this path. For a path returned by DefaultTreeModel this will return an instance of TreeNode.

Returns:
the Object at the end of the path
See Also:
#TreePath()

getPathCount

public int getPathCount()
Returns the number of elements in the path.

Returns:
an int giving a count of items the path

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)
Tests if two paths are equal. Two paths are considered equal if they are of same length and contain the same keys.

Parameters:
obj - the object ot compare

hashCode

public int hashCode()

isDescendant

public boolean isDescendant(TreePath aTreePath)
Returns true if aTreePath is a descendant of this TreePath. A TreePath P1 is a descendent of a TreePath P2 if P1 contains all of the components that make up P2's path. For example, if this object has the path [a, b], and aTreePath has the path [a, b, c], then aTreePath is a descendant of this object. However, if aTreePath has the path [a], then it is not a descendant of this object.

Returns:
true if aTreePath is a descendant of this path

getParentPath

public TreePath getParentPath()
Returns a path containing all the elements of this object, except the last path component.


getLastKey

public String getLastKey()
Returns the key of last element of this path.


toString

public String toString()
Returns a string that displays and identifies this object's properties.

Returns:
a String representation of this object

valueOf

public static TreePath valueOf(String s)
Returns the TreePath represented by a given String.

Parameters:
s - the string representation of the path
Returns:
a path object
See Also:
toString()

getObject

public Object getObject(TreeModel model)
