I have a PrimeFaces tree table and would like to add a check box which allows the user to select/unselect all.
Here is an extract from my xhtml
<p:selectBooleanCheckbox
itemLabel="Select all"
value="#{mainViewBean.selectAll}">
<p:ajax listener="#{mainViewBean.onSelectAll}"
update="@this :mainForm" />
</p:selectBooleanCheckbox>
<p:treeTable id="treeToAssign"
value="#{mainViewBean.treeValue}" var="vh"
selectionMode="checkbox"
selection="#{mainViewBean.treeSelection}">
<f:facet name="header">
Tree Table
</f:facet>
<p:column>
<h:outputText value="#{vh.name}" />
</p:column>
</p:treeTable>
and here is my bean method
private TreeNode treeValue;
private TreeNode[] treeSelection;
private boolean selectAll;
public void onSelectAll() {
List<TreeNode> selection = new ArrayList<>();
for (TreeNode node : treeValue.getChildren()) {
node.setSelected(selectAll);
selection.add(node);
}
treeSelection = selection.toArray(new TreeNode[selection.size()]);
}
I had initially tried just setting NODE.setSelected(selectAll);
, but that didn't work so I tried manually manually filling treeSelection
as well.
I feel like this should be straightforward, but have been unable to figure it out, any suggestions?
Thanks
