You should probably implement a TreeNode extended class to wrap
java.io.File objects and implement the TreeWillExpandL istener. Then when
you get the treeWillExpand event you check which File object the user is
trying to expand and then just list the files under that object,
creating TreeNode objects for each and tell the tree that the node has
been updated.
