Hi All,
I have created tree using TreeViewer. If I am trying to do any operation on collapsed tree items, it does not have any effect.
For example, if I want to set an image to a child item and I try to traverse the tree to find the same, below code returns empty array when tree items are collapsed.
TreeItem[] items = treeItem.getItems();
Can any one help on this?

Snehil,
You should generally be working with content and label providers, not
directly with tree items. In the later case your question is an SWT
question, not a JFace question. JFace manages the underlying widgets
for you via the providers so you should only operate on the model level
and content/label provider level. I.e., you'd tell the viewer that some
object's label is changed and ensure that the label provider returns the
appropriate new image when asked for the image.

Items are created in a lazy manner so there are no child items until you
expanded the TreeItem at least once.
But lig you and Ed stated already do not work with the low-level SWT-API
if you are using Viewers.
