[bug-classpath] [Bug swing/23255] New: Current BasicTreeUI assumes root is a TreeNode

[WBaer at gmx dot de]

Hi,

the current BasicTreeUI implementation makes the assumption
at several places that root is a TreeNode type.

However this is not true as TreeModel.getRoot() can return
any type and this is true for applications which
implement their own TreeModel for example Jump (GIS-App).

The attached demo application is a derived demonstration
example of the problem from the Jump application.

It works with Sun JDK and throws ClassCastExceptions
with GNU classpath.
