package javax.swing.event;

import java.util.EventObject;
import javax.swing.tree.TreePath;

An event that characterizes a change in the current selection. The change is based on any number of paths. TreeSelectionListeners will generally query the source of the event for the new selected status of each potentially changed row.

Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeans™ has been added to the java.beans package. Please see XMLEncoder.

Represents a change in the selection of a TreeSelectionModel. paths identifies the paths that have been either added or removed from the selection.
Params:
  • source – source of event
  • paths – the paths that have changed in the selection
  • areNew – a boolean array indicating whether the paths in paths are new to the selection
  • oldLeadSelectionPath – the previous lead selection path
  • newLeadSelectionPath – the new lead selection path

Represents a change in the selection of a TreeSelectionModel. path identifies the path that has been either added or removed from the selection.
Params:
  • source – source of event
  • path – the path that has changed in the selection
  • isNew – whether or not the path is new to the selection, false means path was removed from the selection.
  • oldLeadSelectionPath – the previous lead selection path
