Enum Constant Detail

PARENT

public static final TreeModelType PARENT
In this model, each node has an ID unique across the whole tree and a parent ID that points to its parent. The name of the unique ID property is can be specified via idField and the name of the parent ID property can be specified via parentIdField. The initial set of nodes can be passed in as a list to data and also added as a list later via Tree.linkNodes(com.smartgwt.client.widgets.tree.TreeNode[]) . Whether or not a given node is a folder is determined by the value of the property specified by isFolderProperty.

The "parent" modelType is best for integrating with relational storage (because nodes can map easily to rows in a table) and collections of Beans and is the model used for DataBound trees.


CHILDREN

public static final TreeModelType CHILDREN
In this model, nodes specify their children as a list of nodes. The property that holdes the children nodes is determined by childrenProperty. Nodes are not required to have an ID that is unique across the whole tree (in fact, no ID is required at all). Node names (specified by the nameProperty, unique within their siblings, are optional but not required. Whether or not a given node is a folder is determined by the presense of the children list (childrenProperty).

Method Detail

values

public static TreeModelType[] values()
Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
for (TreeModelType c : TreeModelType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:
an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static TreeModelType valueOf(String name)
Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:
name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
Returns:
the enum constant with the specified name
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
NullPointerException - if the argument is null

getValue

public String getValue()
Specified by:
getValue in interface ValueEnum
