Virtual Tree and Lazy Tree Content Provider [message #310334] Tue, 28 November 2006 20:07 Go to next message

I saw an earlier post asking a similar question, but I didn't see a good
answer for this.

I have a tree viewer that I've defined as Virtual.

The content provider implements ILazyTreeContentProvider. When the tree is
displayed, the top level elements are displayed properly, however, there
aren't any plus signs next to them to view any children.

What is the recommended way to get the plus sign to display by default.
I've tried calling updateChildCount from updateElement, but that results in
updateElement getting called for the children, which negates the benefit of
using the virtual tree with lazy loading.

In updateElement(), make sure that you set the text/icon as well as the
child count for the new element. One way of doing that is to call your
updateChildCount implementation with the new element after having called
viewer.replace.

This should not materialize the whole tree. If it does, it's a bug and
should be entered into bugzilla.

Thanks,
Boris.
