  TreeSearchable is an concrete implementation of {@link Searchable} that enables the search function inJTree.

  It's very simple to use it. Assuming you have a JTree, all you need to do is to call

   JTree tree = ....; TreeSearchable searchable = new TreeSearchable(tree); 

  Now the JTree will have the search function.

  There is very little customization you need to do to TreeSearchable. The only thing you might need is when the element in the JTree needs a special conversion to convert to string. If so, you can override convertElementToString() to provide you own algorithm to do the conversion.

   JTree tree = ....; TreeSearchable searchable = new TreeSearchable(tree) { protected String convertElementToString(Object object) { ... } }; 

  Additional customization can be done on the base Searchable class such as background and foreground color, keystrokes, case sensitivity.

  JTree actually has a simple searchable feature but has flaws. It will affect our searchable feature. To workaround it, you can override getNextMatch method and always return -1 when you create your JList.

   JTree tree = new JTree(...) { public TreePath getNextMatch(String prefix, int startingRow, Position.Bias bias) { return null; } };
