getChildren

Description

The getChildren method returns a table containing all the children nodes of a specified node within a Treeview object.

Returns

1. table A table containing all the children nodes of the specified node

Usage

• Creates a Treeview, adds a child node, and retrieves its children:

local basalt = require("basalt")

local mainFrame = basalt.createFrame()
local treeview = mainFrame:addTreeview()

local rootNode = treeview:getRoot()
local childNode1 = rootNode.addChild("Child Node 1")
local childNode2 = rootNode.addChild("Child Node 2")

local children = rootNode.getChildren()

basalt.debug("Children count:", #children)

basalt.autoUpdate()

In this example, a Treeview object is created and added to the mainFrame. The getRoot method is used to access the root node, and two new child nodes are added to it using the addChild method. The getChildren method is then used to retrieve a table containing all the children nodes of the root node, and the number of children is printed to the console using basalt.debug.
