- Enclosing interface:
GuiRepresentation
public static interface GuiRepresentation.TreeString
intermediate repesentation of table string; composition of
GuiRepresentation.TreeStringValue
and GuiRepresentation.TreeStringComposite
.
toString() returns multiline-strings of tab-separated columns with quoting columns by double-quotation (GuiRepresentation.quoteForTabSeparatedValues(String)
).
