Syntax error Allow multiple selection of nodes not necessarily contigous in JTree

Allow multiple selection of nodes not necessarily contigous in JTree

To allow multiple selection of nodes not necessarily contiguous, set the selection mode for tree to be DISCONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION −

tree.getSelectionModel().setSelectionMode(TreeSelectionModel.DISCONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION);

The following is an example to allow multiple selection of nodes, which are not necessarily contigous −

Example

package my;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JTree;
import javax.swing.tree.DefaultMutableTreeNode;
import javax.swing.tree.TreeSelectionModel;
public class SwingDemo {
   public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
      JFrame frame = new JFrame("Demo");
      DefaultMutableTreeNode node = new DefaultMutableTreeNode("Products");
      DefaultMutableTreeNode node1 = new DefaultMutableTreeNode("Clothing");
      DefaultMutableTreeNode node2 = new DefaultMutableTreeNode("Electronics");
      DefaultMutableTreeNode node3 = new DefaultMutableTreeNode("Home Decor");
      DefaultMutableTreeNode node4 = new DefaultMutableTreeNode("Furniture");
      node.add(node1);
      node.add(node2);
      node.add(node3);
      node.add(node4);
      DefaultMutableTreeNode one = new DefaultMutableTreeNode("Shirt");
      DefaultMutableTreeNode two = new DefaultMutableTreeNode("Trousers");

      node4.add(nine);
      node4.add(ten);
      JTree tree = new JTree(node);
      for (int i = 0; i < tree.getRowCount(); i++) {
         tree.expandRow(i);
      }
      tree.putClientProperty("JTree.lineStyle", "Angled");
      tree.getSelectionModel().setSelectionMode(TreeSelectionModel.DISCONTIGUOUS_TREE_SELECTION);
      tree.setRowHeight(25);
      frame.add(tree);
      frame.setSize(600,450);
      frame.setVisible(true);
