I am working on an App that uses a JTree, with a DefaultTreeModel, with
customized nodes derived from DefaultMutableTreeNode. As nodes are added
they are displayed in the JTree in alphabetical ordering by node labels
under their parent nodes. This is a problem because 1)strings including
numerics do not alphabetize as expected (i.e. "node12" will show up directly
after "node1" and before "node2") and also in certain situations, I want to
order by a different requirement, like a sequence number. Is there any
simple way to control the order in which the nodes are displayed in the
tree? Can 2 different criteria for ordering be used in the same tree? Any
suggestions on how to accomplish this? Thanks! T.
