mxCellPath

Implements a mechanism for temporary cell Ids.

Summary

mxCellPath	Implements a mechanism for temporary cell Ids.
Variables
PATH_SEPARATOR	Defines the separator between the path components.
Functions
create	Creates the cell path for the given cell.
getParentPath	Returns the path for the parent of the cell represented by the given path.
resolve	Returns the cell for the specified cell path using the given root as the root of the path.
compare	Compares the given cell paths and returns -1 if p1 is smaller, 0 if p1 is equal and 1 if p1 is greater than p2.

Variables

PATH_SEPARATOR

Defines the separator between the path components. Default is “.”.

Functions

create

create: function( cell )

Creates the cell path for the given cell. The cell path is a concatenation of the indices of all ancestors on the (finite) path to the root, eg. “0.0.0.1”.

Parameters

cell	Cell whose path should be returned.

getParentPath

getParentPath: function( path )

Returns the path for the parent of the cell represented by the given path. Returns null if the given path has no parent.

Parameters

path	Path whose parent path should be returned.

resolve

resolve: function( root,
path )

Returns the cell for the specified cell path using the given root as the root of the path.

Parameters

root	Root cell of the path to be resolved.
path	String that defines the path.

compare

compare: function( p1,
p2 )

Compares the given cell paths and returns -1 if p1 is smaller, 0 if p1 is equal and 1 if p1 is greater than p2.
