I need to implement a content tree with context menu (add, delete, edit) in JSF 2.0. Please suggest me some components. The tree node should be an object like (Data, ID). When I click on tree node I need to get the id to backend bean.

Example:

index.xhtml

Prime Tree

 <p:growl id="messages" showDetail="true" /> <p:tree value="#{treeBean.root}" var="node" id="pTree" selectionMode="single" selection="#{treeBean.selectedNode}"> <p:treeNode> <h:outputText value="#{node}" /> </p:treeNode> </p:tree> <p:contextMenu for="pTree" id="cmenu"> <p:menuitem value="Add topic as child" update="pTree, cmenu" actionListener="#{treeBean.addChildNode}" /> <p:menuitem value="Add topic Below" update="pTree, cmenu" actionListener="#{treeBean.addTopicBelow}" /> <p:menuitem value="Delete Topic" update="pTree, cmenu" actionListener="#{treeBean.deleteNode}" /> </p:contextMenu> </h:form> </h:body> 

TreeBean.java

/* * To change this template, choose Tools | Templates * and open the template in the editor. */

package com.prime.tree;

/** * * @author Veerendra */ @ManagedBean @SessionScoped public class TreeBean implements Serializable {

private TreeNode root; private TreeNode selectedNode; public TreeBean() { root = new DefaultTreeNode("Root", null); List rootNodes<Employee> = SearchDao.getRootNodes(); Iterator it = rootNodes.iterator(); while (it.hasNext()) { TreeNode node1 = new DefaultTreeNode(**it.next()**, root); **/* in place of it.next() I need to display empName. When I click on empName, I need to get the Id(Pkey). */** } } public TreeNode getRoot() { return root; } public TreeNode getSelectedNode() { return selectedNode; } public void setSelectedNode(TreeNode selectedNode) { this.selectedNode = selectedNode; } public void addChildNode(ActionEvent actionEvent) { System.out.println("Selected Node: "+getSelectedNode().toString()); TreeNode newNode = new DefaultTreeNode("Node New", getSelectedNode()); getSelectedNode().setExpanded(true); } public void addTopicBelow(ActionEvent actionEvent){ TreeNode newNode = new DefaultTreeNode("Node New", getSelectedNode().getParent()); } public void deleteNode(ActionEvent actionEvent){ System.out.println("Node to be deleted: "+getSelectedNode().toString()); //getSelectedNode(). } 

}

Employee.java

public class Employee{

private String empID; private String empName; /** * @return the empName */ public String getEmpName() { return empName; } /** * @param empName the empName to set */ public void setEmpName(String empName) { this.empName = empName; } /** * @return the empID */ public String getEmpID() { return empID; } /** * @param empID the empID to set */ public void setEmpID(String empID) { this.empID = empID; } 

}
