Two questions about Treetable [message #547578]

I am a newbie for Riena, I have two questions about treetable.

1.The method of setColumnWidths does not work, Why getUIControl() always return null?
My View:
public void basicCreatePartControl(Composite parent) {
ergebnis = new Tree(container, SWT.BORDER | SWT.FULL_SELECTION);
new TreeColumn(ergebnis, SWT.NONE);
addUIControl(ergebnis, "result");
}

My Controller:
final ITreeTableRidget kunden = ((ITreeTableRidget) getRidget("result"));
// set the widths
ColumnLayoutData[] widths = new ColumnLayoutData[] { new ColumnWeightData(2), new ColumnWeightData(1) };
treeTableRidget.setColumnWidths(widths);

String[] columnValues = new String[] { "word", "upperCase" };
String[] columnHeaders = new String[] { "Word", "Uppercase" };
treeTableRidget.bindToModel(createTreeInput(), WordNode.class, "children", "parent",
columnValues, columnHeaders);
treeTableRidget.expandAll();

2. Is it posible to control the showing folder or file icon by a property in the model?
e.g. Show a folder icon for a node which doesn't have a child, but it's property is a category?

Thanks.

getUIControl() returns null in method configureRidgets since controller and view are not "bound" yet.

Overwrite afterBind() in the controller and getUIControl() will return a result.

not sure about the others.....maybe Elias has an answer...

Hi Christian,

Thanks for you reply.
But the getUIControl() still returns null when I overwrite the afterBind() in the controller. I can't add custom listener to the tree.
---------------------------------------
@Override
public void afterBind() {
}
---------------------------------------

To make setColumnWidths work, please setting the layout of tree container to null

I still have no any idea for the question 2.

Thanks,
lushiwei

You need to do this

public void afterBind() {
ITreeTableRidget kunden = ((ITreeTableRidget) getRidget("result"));
Tree tree = kunden.getUIControl();
}

We had the same problem just today with a Table. However, this seems to
be a SWT issue. Try putting the Tree into its own Composite like this:

@Override
protected void basicCreatePartControl(final Composite parent) {
GridLayoutFactory.fillDefaults().spacing(0, 0).applyTo(parent);

Composite tblCmp = new Composite(parent, SWT.NONE);
GridDataFactory.fillDefaults().grab(true, true).applyTo(tblCmp);
Table table = UIControlsFactory.createTable(tblCmp,
SWT.NONE, "table");
}

It also seems to be important to *not* set any GridData to the Table.
Hope it's the same with the Tree.

If this doesn't work, try ColumnPixelData(..) or ColumnWeightData(int
weight, int minWidth).

Hi Stephan,

Yes, it's the same with the Tree.

The method setColumnWidths works well when I put the Tree into its own Composite and set layout of composite to null.

You can get more information from the codes. ColumnUtils.applyColumnWidths(...) in line 132.

Yes, there are two ways to do this:

(a) use one of the treeRidget.bindToModel(...) methods that have
....imageAccessor arguments. One of the bind methods accepts a
leafImageAccessor property. Another variant accepts an imageAccessor and
openNodeImageAccessor property. Refer to the javadoc for a detailed
description.

These properties point to methods that return a String with the filename
of an image. The image is found by searching the known imagePaths. Use
the imagePaths extension point to register the directory containing your
images:

<extension
point="org.eclipse.riena.ui.swt.imagePaths">
<path path="icons"/>
</extension>

Example: see SonarController#setRootNodes and plugin.xml in
org.eclipse.riena.example.ping.client.

(b) if you use an ITreeTableRidget you can use a ColumnFormatter and
override the getImage() method.

treeTableRidget.setColumnFormatter(columnNumber, new ColumnFormatter() {
public Image getImage(final Object element) { ... }
});

At the moment you will run into Bug 316103 if you use this on the 1st
column. This will be fixed with the next milestone.

Hope this helps,
Elias.
