Databinding for TreeViewer

[niklasskeppstedt]

Hi (Eric?),
We have discussed this before but I need some refreshing...
We have a lot of UI's using JFace TreeViewers and after designing UI's with TableViewers and databinding which works excellent I am now wondering if databinding support for TreeViewers is something you work on or have plans for? I have searched for solutions and the only thing I have come up with is org.eclipse.jface.internal.databinding.provisional.viewers.UnorderedTreeContentProvider but it doesnt seem to be class for me to use(internal).

Best regards,

The current Eclipse DataBinding API does not support TreeViewers.

If and when TreeViewer support is added to Eclipse, we will add the correspondings upport to SWT Designer.

You should look at the PhoneBookUsingTreeViewer example provided in our DataBinding example project for one approach to using a TreeViewer in conjunction with the DB API.
