[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Re: Drop Down Tree View

["Grant Gayed" <grant_gayed@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Debbie,

SWT doesn't have something like this, and I don't know of a similar
third-party Control, so you would have to custom-implement it.  It shouldn't
be too hard though, if you start with CCombo, replace its List with a Tree,
and add api for adding TreeItems to its Tree.  Trees do not have have a way
of automatically not showing leaf nodes, so you would have to process this
at some point to not create them.
