Opening context menu on tree node causes NodeContextException

In my code I select a node from a SapTree and 

String key = tree.findNodeKeyByPath(path);
tree.selectNode(key);
tree.nodeContextMenu(key);

but instead of opening a context menu, it results in an exception:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Error executing 'NodeContextMenu'. An unexpected COM exception occurred at SAP Frontend Server (). .

    at com.microfocus.silktest.jtf.sap.SapTree.nodeContextMenu(SapTree.java:1490)
    ...

The nodeContextMenu() documentation is not very helpful regaring potential issues.

How can I open a context menu if not the way I did it?

Solution

  • This exception may occur if more than one node is selected, i.e. if a node was already selected before you selected the second one.

    To clear all selected nodes, insert a call tree.unselectAll() (Silk documentation)
