I have a TreeTable which has maximum depth of 2, e.g.
fooType
-foo
-foo
If I select fooType I want the program to select automatically all child-items AND deselect the parent item. But when I try this, I always get an IndexOutOfBoundsException.
myTreeTable.getSelectionModel().selectedItemProperty().addListener((obs, ov, nv) -> {
if (nv.getValue() instanceof fooType) {
myTreeTable.getSelectionModel().clearSelection(myTreeTable.getSelectionModel().getSelectedIndex());
if (!nv.isExpanded()) {
nv.setExpanded(true);
}
ObservableList<TreeItem<IfooTreeItem>> children = nv.getChildren();
for (TreeItem<IfooTreeItem> item : children) {
annotationsTreeTable.getSelectionModel().select(item);
}
}
});
Multi selection mode is enabled.
Any help appreciated.
In JavaFX, you are not allowed to change an ObservableList while an existing change to that list is being processed. (Whether or not this is a sensible rule is open to debate, nevertheless, it is a rule.)
The selection model keeps ObservableLists of both the selected indices and the selected items. Part of the processing of changes in those lists is to call listeners on the selected item and selected index. Consequently, you can't change the selection from a listener on the selection itself.
The "proper" way to do this would be to provide your own implementation of the selection model. This is a bit of a pain, as there are a lot of methods to implement, and their use is not well documented. Here is an example, though this is intended as a starting point and is not intended to be production quality:
