Description Sam Sampson CLA 2005-09-27 17:42:45 EDT 
TreeViewer has two add methods inherited from AbstractTreeViewer. Neither 
allows you to add an item with a null parent, i.e. a root item. The only way 
to add root items is through the content provider, which is not always ideal.
Comment 1 Boris Bokowski CLA 2005-12-01 14:15:50 EST 
To add a root item, call add and pass in the input as the first argument. Closing as worksforme.
