<div class="block">Defines the structure (list of columns) of a table and provides the root of the tree
containing the data. <code>Tree­Table</code> can be seen as a table in which the first
column contains a tree. Every row in this table is a <a href="TreeTable.Node.html" title="interface in org.apache.sis.util.collection"><code>Tree­Table​.Node</code></a> instance, and each
node can have an arbitrary number of <a href="TreeTable.Node.html#getChildren()">children</a> nodes.
<p>Below is an example of what a two-columns <code>Tree­Table</code> instance may look like
when <a href="TreeTableFormat.html" title="class in org.apache.sis.util.collection">formatted as a text</a>:</p>

<p>In many cases, the columns are known in advance as hard-coded static constants.
Those column constants are typically documented close to the class producing the
<code>Tree­Table</code> instance. Using directly those static constants provides type
safety, as in the following example:</p>
<blockquote><pre>TreeTable table = ...; <i><font color="gray">// Put here a TreeTable instance.</font></i>
TreeTable.Node node = table.<b>getRoot</b>();
CharSequence name = node.<b>getValue</b>(TableColumn.NAME);
Class&lt;?&gt; type = node.<b>getValue</b>(TableColumn.TYPE);</pre></blockquote>
In the above example, the type of value returned by the <a href="TreeTable.Node.html#getValue(org.apache.sis.util.collection.TableColumn)"><code>Tree­Table​.Node​.get­Value(Table­Column)</code></a>
method is determined by the column constant. However, this approach is possible only when
the table structure is known in advance. If a method needs to work with arbitrary tables,
then that method can get the list of columns by a call to <a href="#getColumns()"><code>get­Columns()</code></a>. However
this column list does not provide the above type-safety.</div>
