Type Parameters:

T - The type of the TreeItems contained within the TreeView.

All Implemented Interfaces:

EventTarget, Skinnable

public class ComboBoxTreeCell<T>
extends TreeCell<T>

A class containing a TreeCell implementation that draws a ComboBox node inside the cell.

By default, the ComboBoxTreeCell is rendered as a Label when not being edited, and as a ComboBox when in editing mode. The ComboBox will, by default, stretch to fill the entire tree cell.

To create a ComboBoxTreeCell, it is necessary to provide zero or more items that will be shown to the user when the ComboBox menu is showing. These items must be of the same type as the TreeView TreeItems, such that upon selection, they replace the existing value in the TreeItem.valueProperty().

These items must be of the same type as the TreeView generic type, such that upon selection, they replace the existing value in the TreeItem that is being edited (as noted in the TreeView.editingItemProperty().

Returns:

A Callback that will return a TreeCell that is able to work on the type of element contained within the TreeView.

converterProperty

public final ObjectProperty<StringConverter<T>> converterProperty()

The StringConverter property.

See Also:

getConverter(), setConverter(StringConverter)

setConverter

public final void setConverter(StringConverter<T> value)

Sets the StringConverter to be used in this cell.

getConverter

public final StringConverter<T> getConverter()

Returns the StringConverter used in this cell.

comboBoxEditableProperty

public final BooleanProperty comboBoxEditableProperty()

A property representing whether the ComboBox, when shown to the user, is editable or not.

See Also:

isComboBoxEditable(), setComboBoxEditable(boolean)

setComboBoxEditable

public final void setComboBoxEditable(boolean value)

Configures the ComboBox to be editable (to allow user input outside of the options provide in the dropdown list).

isComboBoxEditable

public final boolean isComboBoxEditable()

Returns true if the ComboBox is editable.

getItems

public ObservableList<T> getItems()

Returns the items to be displayed in the ChoiceBox when it is showing.

startEdit

public void startEdit()

Call this function to transition from a non-editing state into an editing state, if the cell is editable. If this cell is already in an editing state, it will stay in it.

Overrides:

startEdit in class TreeCell<T>

cancelEdit

public void cancelEdit()

Call this function to transition from an editing state into a non-editing state, without saving any user input.

Overrides:

cancelEdit in class TreeCell<T>

updateItem

public void updateItem(T item,
              boolean empty)

Updates the item associated with this Cell. This method should only be called by Skin implementations of ListView, TableView, TreeView, or other controls using Cells. It is not intended to be called by application developers.

Because null is a perfectly valid value in the application domain, Cell needs some way to distinguish whether or not the cell actually holds a value. The empty flag indicates this. It is an error to supply a non-null item but a true value for empty.

Overrides:

updateItem in class Cell<T>

Parameters:

item - The new item for the cell

empty - whether or not this cell represents data from the list. If it is empty, then it does not represent any domain data, but is a cell being used to render an "empty" row.
