Handling component in multiple Tabs

[xlomo]

Hello forum, I am posting to ask how to handle a Jtree.
I need to have the same Jtree showing in two different tabs and every change that happens to the first it should happen to the second too.
Is there any way to connect the Jtrees so that when an event occurs to the jtree in the first tab the same event to be triggered in the second one ? or is there a better solution? Help me please.

If you want both trees to be equal all the time set the same TreeModel to both JTrees and manipulate that single model.

Thank you for your reply Jos.
Unfortunately there are more than one tree models that I need to use and they depend on the actions of the user, so I need to have the same events for both trees too, and I need to have the "Selected Path" to be the same. If there is no better way I guess I will have to change the program. but can't I link the trees somehow ?

Hook up TreeModelListeners to the JTrees and if an event occurs in one tree take the appropriate actions for the other JTrees.
