/**
* Used to create an event when nodes have been changed, inserted, or
* removed, identifying the path to the parent of the modified items as
* an array of Objects. All of the modified objects are siblings which are
* direct descendents (not grandchildren) of the specified parent.
* The positions at which the inserts, deletes, or changes occurred are
* specified by an array of <code>int</code>. The indexes in that array
* must be in order, from lowest to highest.
* <p>
* For changes, the indexes in the model correspond exactly to the indexes
* of items currently displayed in the UI. As a result, it is not really
* critical if the indexes are not in their exact order. But after multiple
* inserts or deletes, the items currently in the UI no longer correspond
* to the items in the model. It is therefore critical to specify the
* indexes properly for inserts and deletes.
* <p>
* For inserts, the indexes represent the <i>final</i> state of the tree,
* after the inserts have occurred. Since the indexes must be specified in
* order, the most natural processing methodology is to do the inserts
* starting at the lowest index and working towards the highest. Accumulate
* a Vector of <code>Integer</code> objects that specify the
* insert-locations as you go, then convert the Vector to an
* array of <code>int</code> to create the event. When the postition-index
* equals zero, the node is inserted at the beginning of the list. When the
* position index equals the size of the list, the node is "inserted" at
* (appended to) the end of the list.
* <p>
* For deletes, the indexes represent the <i>initial</i> state of the tree,
* before the deletes have occurred. Since the indexes must be specified in
* order, the most natural processing methodology is to use a delete-counter.
* Start by initializing the counter to zero and start work through the
* list from lowest to higest. Every time you do a delete, add the current
* value of the delete-counter to the index-position where the delete occurred,
* and append the result to a Vector of delete-locations, using
* <code>addElement()</code>. Then increment the delete-counter. The index
* positions stored in the Vector therefore reflect the effects of all previous
* deletes, so they represent each object's position in the initial tree.
* (You could also start at the highest index and working back towards the
* lowest, accumulating a Vector of delete-locations as you go using the
* <code>insertElementAt(Integer, 0)</code>.) However you produce the Vector
* of initial-positions, you then need to convert the Vector of <code>Integer</code>
* objects to an array of <code>int</code> to create the event.
* <p>
* <b>Notes:</b><ul>
* <li>Like the <code>insertNodeInto</code> method in the
* <code>DefaultTreeModel</code> class, <code>insertElementAt</code>
* appends to the <code>Vector</code> when the index matches the size
* of the vector. So you can use <code>insertElementAt(Integer, 0)</code>
* even when the vector is empty.
* <ul>To create a node changed event for the root node, specify the parent
