Perforce JViews TGO Sample: Tree Component - Custom Classes


Description

This sample shows how to create custom business classes and use them with the tree component.

How to Use the Sample

The sample shows a simple tree with a few nodes representing network domains and the computer equipment they contain.

The tree supports standard interaction for expanding and collapsing nodes, as well as multiple selection. Click a node to select it. Use the Shift key to select several adjacent nodes or Ctrl to select individual nodes.

How to Run the Sample as an Application

This sample can be run as an application. The installation directory contains an executable JAR file, tree-customClasses.jar, that allows you to execute the sample with a double click from a file browser. Note that if you are using Internet Explorer, you can open the installation directory and execute the JAR file from the browser. This technique may not work in other Web browsers.

Alternatively, you can run the sample application from the command line. First check that the Ant utility is properly configured. If not, see the instructions on how to configure Ant for Perforce JViews.

Then, go to the installation directory of the sample and type:

ant run
