Menu
Here I have an complete and very easy example to dynamically add/remove nodes to an celltree. My example is not working very well. It seems there is an refresh problem. Only closing/expanding the nodes will show the correct result. I also did not found any answer in this forum which fits to this problem. Maybe somebody can try my example and tell me where the problem is. Any other hint is also very appreciated.
Greetings, Marco

Thanks Ümit for your explanation. I tried the close-reopen version. I have replaced my refresh method with the methods below. Adding is working but removing not. Very strange the whole topic. I'm very suprised that these basic functions are not really supported by GWT. Can somebody give me more help to run a real working example.
public void refresh() {
closeReopenTreeNodes(cellTree.getRootTreeNode());
}
private void closeReopenTreeNodes(TreeNode node) {
if(node == null) {
return;
}
for(int i = 0; i < node.getChildCount(); i++) {
if(node.getChildValue(i).equals(this)){
if(node.getParent() != null){
node.getParent().setChildOpen(i, false);
//node.getParent().setChildOpen(i, true);
}
node.setChildOpen(i, false);
node.setChildOpen(i, true);
}
TreeNode child = node.setChildOpen(i, node.isChildOpen(i));
closeReopenTreeNodes(child);
}
}
Here my third try: This way is recommended by gwt-commiter. Please see following issue: http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=7160
Current status: * Adding is possible * Removing is possible if not last child!
So, last open point, refresh the tree if last open child!

This is somehow a known problem with CellTree.
The reason for the refresh problem is that in the getNodeInfo() function you create a new ListDataProvider instance for each CellTree level.
The CellTree only updates/refreshes itself if you update the items in that ListDataProvider.
I believe that your removeMenu() and addSubMenu() functions add and remove items from the original list stored in your MyNode class but won't update the list in the corresponding ListDataProviders (you can try to check that in debug mode).
The reason why the CellTree is refreshed when you close and re
-open the nodes is because when you re-open the nodes the getNodeInfo() is called again and the whole CellTree structure will be constructed again (including the new menu or without the removed one respectively).
There are two possible solutions:
ListDataProviders somewhere and call remove/add on that list (although you do that I assume that the items are not really added/removed there).Both are somehow a PITA to implement. Unfortunately there is no easy way around it.
