Listeners Firing In the W

Show all headers | View raw

As far as I know, listeners fire in the order that they're added to an
object.

With that in mind, I am creating a JTree (extend JTree).  Here is my
setup process...

1. I first set the tree's model (class/es that implement
MutableTreeNode).

2. Set the tree's cell editor.  The cell editor extends
DefaultTreeCellEditor and implements the CellEditorListener
interface.  When I set the tree's cell editor, the constructor of my
cell editor sets itself as its own listener.

3. I then have the tree's model items add themselves as
TreeModelListeners of the tree (they implement the TreeModelListener
interface).  This way they can react to changes made directly to the
tree.


So, if I rename a node on the tree, I want the CellEditorListener to
fire first (to update the model item that was changed) and I want the
TreeModelListener to fire second.  However, the reverse is happening.
I'm very confused why this is.  Can anybody explain how listeners fire
or why these listeners are not firing in the (seemingly appropriate
order).

Sorry I don't have any code to paste.  Thanks for any help.
