Hi,

I'm new to SWTBot. I cannot find ClassMatcher in SWTBot 2.0. Someone mentioned that the ClassMatcher is now replaced by the api widgetOfType(class). But, I don't find this either. I find the findControls() method takes in parameter Matcher<T> matcher. But I'm not sure
how to use it fo find the tree in my selected view.

I want to find the controls in the selected view.
I'm trying to use it the following way:
SWTBotView view = bot.activeView();

List controls = new ChildrenControlFinder(view.getWidget()).findControls(Matcher <Tree> (Tree.class));//which I know is wrong

Can someone please correct me ?

Thanks.

widgetOfType(Class) is a static method found in WidgetMatcherFactory. To
easily find the other methods in this class (and others), you can
activate a simple preferences:
Window > Preferences > SWTBot Preferences and check the single check box.

The bot() method in SWTBotView is what you want. It returns a SWTBot
that search inside the view for widgets.

you can do this instead:
bot.activeView().bot().tree();

or, if you want them all in the view:
bot.activeView().bot().widget(widgetOfType(Tree.class));
with this addition in your imports:
import static
org.eclipse.swtbot.swt.finder.matchers.WidgetMatcherFactory. widgetOfType;

Hope this helps.
