Refreshing JTree

hi,

i am on creating FTP in GUI using JFC components(JTree).When server sends

the folder to client.Treeview in the client should be refreshed for

getting new folder.Please help me regarding this.

Are you familiar with JTree? If not, the Sun Java Tutorial has an extensive chapter about them. If you do know it, tell us in detail what you have so far, and where you're stuck making progress.

Hello,

Try

SwingUtilities.UpdateComponentTree( treeinstance);

sven

@sven

it is working good.But after deleting the node.But when i send the new

Folder or File(means adding new node).the tree is not getting Updated.

How do you send that new folder / file?

i am not using any predefined API's.I am on creating from scratch.

When client selected the Folder to receive it in its side.A command

dout.writeUTF("FOLDER") is sent to server.

So particular Folder as a node will be updated immediately in client side

tree view.

Am I right if I think you are using your own TreeModel implementation?

If so, you need to fire an event to all TreeModelListeners. Whether that's a changed, inserted, removed or even complete structure changed event is up to you.

Action a3 = new AbstractAction("Refresh")
{
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
{
System.out.println("inside");
m_model.addTreeModelListener(new javax.swing.event.TreeModelListener()
{
public void treeStructureChanged(javax.swing.event.TreeModelEvent evt)
{
System.out.println(evt.getTreePath());
DefaultMutableTreeNode nn=getTreeNode(evt.getTreePath());
String sname=nn.toString();
System.out.println(sname);
m_model.reload(nn);
}
public void treeNodesRemoved(javax.swing.event.TreeModelEvent evt)
{
System.out.println(evt.getTreePath());
DefaultMutableTreeNode nn=getTreeNode(evt.getTreePath());
String sname=nn.toString();
System.out.println(sname);
m_model.reload(nn);
//System.out.println(" node changed->II"+evt.getTreePath());
}
public void treeNodesInserted(javax.swing.event.TreeModelEvent evt)
{
System.out.println(evt.getTreePath());
DefaultMutableTreeNode nn=getTreeNode(evt.getTreePath());
String sname=nn.toString();
System.out.println(sname);
m_model.reload(nn);
//System.out.println("Nodes Inserted method called..III");
}
public void treeNodesChanged(javax.swing.event.TreeModelEvent evt)
{
System.out.println(evt.getTreePath());
DefaultMutableTreeNode nn=getTreeNode(evt.getTreePath());
String sname=nn.toString();
System.out.println(sname);
m_model.reload(nn);
}
});
//SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI(m_tree);
//JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(FileTree2.this,"Rename option is not implemented","Info", JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
}
};
m_popup.add(a3);
m_tree.add(m_popup);

i used the above code to refresh the JTree.

but it is not updated.what went wrong in that code.

When you press the tree you add a tree model listener, but that doesn't mean the tree model is actually updated. Any subsequent update should be shown though.

DefaultTreeModel has two methods called reload - one takes a TreeNode and updates that TreeNode and all of its descendants, the other one updates the entire tree.

i got solution for the Refreshing JTree.

Thanks and Regards,

Krishna
