TreeViewer with TableLayout [message #539549]

Hi friends,

I created a TreeViewer with TableLayout. The business model just has 2 level hierarchy. And I do not display the root element. So, you just can see the second-level items and their leaves. Each element has attributes like name, path, label and so on which are displayed in the table cell. My new requirement is to add a delete icon for each second-level, putting it in the last place(or column if it is) . Then if user click I will remove this element and its children.

But I am not familiar with the UI part. I just know adding an icon is easy(getColumnImage() in the LabelProvider). But I do not know how to listener the user clicking event. Any suggestion is welcome and appreciated.

Thanks,
Ricky

You can track user clicks by adding a mouse listener to the tree viewer.
"treeViewer.getTree().addMouseListener(...)"

A better UI design will be provide the delete option inside a context
menu (rather than as an icon). Give the user the option to delete even
using the 'DEL' key. You can track selection changes using
"treeViewer.getTree().addSelectionListener(...)"
