I made a treeview with normal treecells and a cellfactory to display my custom objects.
I wanned to be able to edit the object names in the treeview.
So i switched from a normal TreeCell to a TextFieldTreeCell so that i can edit the name of my objects in the tree.
But now the setGrapic methods in updateitem is not working. what am i doing wrong?
Also im not sure how to acces the custom object from the fromString methode for editing the object.
treeView.setCellFactory(new Callback<TreeView<MenuItem>, TreeCell<MenuItem>>() {
@Override
public TreeCell<MenuItem> call(TreeView<MenuItem> menuItemTreeView) {
// MenuItemTreeCell menuItemTreeCell = new MenuItemTreeCell();
TextFieldTreeCell<MenuItem> cell = new TextFieldTreeCell<MenuItem>(new StringConverter<MenuItem>() {
@Override
public String toString(MenuItem menuItem) {
if(menuItem==null){
return "";
}
return menuItem.getName();
}
@Override
public MenuItem fromString(String s) {
// todo add code for changing name
return null;
}
})
{
@Override
public void updateItem(MenuItem item, boolean empty) { // empty was b
super.updateItem(item, empty);
// setText((empty || item == null) ? "" : item.getName());
// checking if not null , and then what class to determ icon
if (item != null) {
switch (item.getClass().getSimpleName()) {
case "Group":
setGraphic(new ImageView(caseicon));
break;
case "Item":
setGraphic(new ImageView(basicicon));
break;
case "ClassItem":
setGraphic(new ImageView(classicon));
break;
case "MechanicItem":
setGraphic(new ImageView(mechanicicon));
break;
}
} else {
// no icon
setGraphic(null);
}
super.updateItem(item, empty);
}
};
