        areChildrenAllowed in interface Container.Hierarchical
        Parameters:
        itemId - ID of the Item in the container whose child capability is to be tested

        Deprecated.
        Description copied from interface: Container.Hierarchical
        Gets the IDs of all Items that are children of the specified Item. The returned collection is unmodifiable.
        Specified by:
        getChildren in interface Container.Hierarchical
        Parameters:
        itemId - ID of the Item whose children the caller is interested in
        Returns:
        An unmodifiable collection containing the IDs of all other Items that are children in the container hierarchy; null if item does not have any children.

        the ID of the parent Item. Will be null if the specified Item is a root element.
      • hasChildren

        public boolean hasChildren​(Object itemId)
        Deprecated.
        Description copied from interface: Container.Hierarchical

        Tests if the Item specified with itemId has child Items or if it is a leaf. The Container.Hierarchical.getChildren(Object itemId) method always returns null for leaf Items.

        Note that being a leaf does not imply whether or not an Item is allowed to have children.

        Specified by:
        hasChildren in interface Container.Hierarchical
        Parameters:
        itemId - ID of the Item to be tested

        Specified by:
        isRoot in interface Container.Hierarchical
        Parameters:
        itemId - ID of the Item whose root status is to be tested

        Gets the IDs of all Items in the container that don't have a parent. Such items are called root Items. The returned collection is unmodifiable.
        Specified by:
        rootItemIds in interface Container.Hierarchical
        Returns:
        An unmodifiable collection containing IDs of all root elements of the container

                                          boolean childrenAllowed)
        Deprecated.

        Sets the given Item's capability to have children. If the Item identified with the itemId already has children and the areChildrenAllowed is false this method fails and false is returned; the children must be first explicitly removed with setParent(Object itemId, Object newParentId) or Container.removeItem(Object itemId).

        Specified by:
        setChildrenAllowed in interface Container.Hierarchical
        Parameters:
        itemId - the ID of the Item in the container whose child capability is to be set.

                                 Object newParentId)
        Deprecated.

        Sets the parent of an Item. The new parent item must exist and be able to have children. (canHaveChildren(newParentId) == true). It is also possible to detach a node from the hierarchy (and thus make it root) by setting the parent null.

        Specified by:
        setParent in interface Container.Hierarchical
        Parameters:
        itemId - the ID of the item to be set as the child of the Item identified with newParentId.
        newParentId - the ID of the Item that's to be the new parent of the Item identified with itemId.
        Returns:
        true if the operation succeeded, false if not

        Deprecated.
        Moves a node (an Item) in the container immediately after a sibling node. The two nodes must have the same parent in the container.
        Parameters:
        itemId - the identifier of the moved node (Item)
        siblingId - the identifier of the reference node (Item), after which the other node will be located

        protected void doSort()
        Deprecated.
        Description copied from class: AbstractInMemoryContainer
        Perform the sorting of the data structures in the container. This is invoked when the itemSorter has been prepared for the sort operation. Typically this method calls Collections.sort(aCollection, getItemSorter()) on all arrays (containing item ids) that need to be sorted.

      • isIncludeParentsWhenFiltering

        public boolean isIncludeParentsWhenFiltering()

        Deprecated.
        Controls how the filtering of the container works. Set this to true to make filtering include parents for all matched items in addition to the items themselves. Setting this to false causes the filtering to only include the matching items and make items with excluded parents into root items.
        Parameters:
        includeParentsWhenFiltering - true to include all parents for items that match the filter, false to only include the matching items
      • doFilterContainer

        Deprecated.
        Description copied from class: AbstractInMemoryContainer
        Filters the data in the container and updates internal data structures. This method should reset any internal data structures and then repopulate them so AbstractInMemoryContainer.getItemIds() and other methods only return the filtered items.
        Overrides:
        doFilterContainer in class AbstractInMemoryContainer<Object,​Object,​Item>
        Parameters:
        hasFilters - true if filters has been set for the container, false otherwise

        Deprecated.
        Description copied from class: AbstractInMemoryContainer

        Overrides:
        passesFilters in class AbstractInMemoryContainer<Object,​Object,​Item>
        Parameters:
        itemId - An itemId that exists in the container.
        Returns:
        true if the itemId passes all filters or no filters are set, false otherwise.
