Class IlpDefaultTreeExpansionStrategyFactory

java.lang.Object

ilog.cpl.tree.IlpDefaultTreeExpansionStrategyFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

IlpExpansionStrategyFactory

public class IlpDefaultTreeExpansionStrategyFactory
extends Object
implements IlpExpansionStrategyFactory

This class models a default expansion strategy factory for tree components.

This factory returns specific expansion strategies according to the value of the CSS property expansion in the different business objects. Expansion strategies are shared among all objects with a certain expansion type.

By default, the following expansion types are supported:

• IN_PLACE: Loads the children objects on demand, as the user expands the parent tree node. In this expansion strategy, tree nodes are considered as parent nodes, only when they have containment relationships. These relationships are defined in the attached data source through its IlpContainer interface. The children objects should already be loaded in the data source, and should be visible according to the data source filter, if there is one defined.
• IN_PLACE_MINIMAL_LOADING: Loads the children objects on demand, as the user expands the parent tree node. All tree nodes with this expansion strategy are considered as possible parent nodes, and are represented with an expansion icon. If the tree node does not contain children objects, the expansion icon will disappear when the expansion is executed for the first time.
• NO_EXPANSION: Expansion is not supported by the tree node.

JTGO 4.0

adapter - Tree adapter.

Since:

JTGO 4.0

Since:

JTGO 4.0

create

public IlpExpansionStrategy create(IlpObject ilpObject)

Creates an expansion strategy that will be used by the representation object that corresponds to the given business object.

An expansion strategy defines how the representation object behaves in the component when it is collapsed or expanded.

This method returns a predefined expansion strategy according to the object expansion type:

• IN_PLACE: Loads the children objects on demand, as the user expands the parent tree node. In this expansion strategy, tree nodes are considered as parent nodes, only when they have containment relationships. These relationships are defined in the attached data source, through its IlpContainer interface. The children objects should already be loaded in the data source, and should be visible according to the data source filter, if there is one defined.
• IN_PLACE_MINIMAL_LOADING: Loads the children objects on demand, as the user expands the parent tree node. All tree nodes with this expansion strategy are considered as possible parent nodes, and are represented with an expansion icon. If the tree node does not contain children objects, the expansion icon will disappear when the expansion is executed for the first time.
• NO_EXPANSION: Expansion is not supported by the tree node.

The business object expansion type is customized in the tree adapter using cascading style sheets (CSS). The following example illustrates this customization:

     object {
       expansion: NO_EXPANSION;
     }
 

Expansion strategies are shared among business objects that share the same expansion type.

Specified by:

create in interface IlpExpansionStrategyFactory

Parameters:

ilpObject - Business object
