Parameters:

tree - the JTree that is asking the editor to edit; this parameter can be null

value - the value of the cell to be edited

isSelected - true is the cell is to be renderer with selection highlighting

expanded - true if the node is expanded

leaf - true if the node is a leaf node

row - the row index of the node being edited

Returns:

the component for editing
