translateToPublicParent

public Object translateToPublicParent(Object element)

When element is returned as the parent of an element A, but element is actually not displayed in the tree because A was returned as the child of an element B, allows element to return B as the actual parent of A. This mechanism requires a coordination between the content provider of B (in its ExtContentProvider.getChildrenAsList(Object) implementation) and the content provider of element (in its ExtContentProvider.translateToPublicParent(Object) implementation).

Parameters:

element -

Returns:
