Evolution of Data Binding

JavaFX BindingBind LibraryProperty Change ListenersCallbacks


Bind Expressions

> Unidirectional:property: bind object.valueproperty: bind sequence[index]sequence: bind for (v in values) convert(v)

> Bijective:property: bind value with inverse

> Function:public bound function calculateTotal(subtotal, tax) { return subtotal * (1 + tax);}

New in JavaFX 1.3 – All binding is lazy!


Binding to Controls

bound function getScore() {[ ScoreLine {line: "Ski Jumping - Individual Norml"} ScoreLine {line: " "} ScoreLine {line: bind " {%-10s medal.type} "} ScoreLine {line: bind "{%-17s medal.name} {%-3s medal.country} {%3.1f medal.score}"} ]}

def sb = ScoreBoard { lightColor: bind medal.lightColor lines: bind getScore() onMousePressed: function(e) { if (e.primaryButtonDown) { medal = medals[(Sequences.indexOf(medals, medal) + 1) mod sizeof medals] } else { FX.exit(); }}}


Dynamic Binding

JFXtras extension for runtime binding to an existing JavaFX object via reflection.

Example:class ReflectionTarget { public var fieldA:String;}def reflectionTarget = ReflectionTarget {fieldA: “A"}

def mirror = context.mirrorOf(reflectionTarget);def xbind = XBind.bindWithInverse(mirror, mirror.getType().getVariable("fieldA"));xbind.ref = "B";

What is the value of: reflectionTarget.fieldA? 8


Java to JavaFX Binding

Prototype by Johannes Schneider: http://blog.cedarsoft.com/

Java to JavaFXPropertyChangeEvents: Just make your Java Bean fire PropertyChangeEvents whenever a property has changedJavaFX to JavaVariable Setter: The corresponding setter of your Java object is calledPropertyChangeEvents: JavaFX binding updates trigger PropertyChangeEvents

JavaFxBridge.bridge(javaModel).to(slider as FXObject).connecting( JavaFxBridge.bind("amount").to("value").withInverse());

Will be included in the JFXtras 0.8 Release – Feedback on the syntax welcome!

Styling Controls – Button/CheckBox

.button { -fx-base: dodgerblue; -fx-shape: "M 50,30 m 0,25 a 1,1 0 " "0,0 0,-50 a 1,1 0 1,0 0,50"; -fx-scale-shape: false;}.check-box:selected *.label { -fx-text-fill: red}.check-box:selected *.mark { -fx-background-color: red; -fx-shape: "M 0,0 H1 L 4,4 7,0 H8 V1 L 5,4 8,7 " "V8 H7 L 4,5 1,8 H0 V7 L 3,4 0,1 Z";}



Styling Controls – Slider

.slider *.track { -fx-base: derive( goldenrod, 50% );}

.slider *.thumb { -fx-shape: "M 50,5 L 37,40 5,40 30,60 20,95 " "50,75 80,95 70,60 95,40 63,40 Z"; -fx-background-color: derive(goldenrod,-50%), goldenrod; -fx-background-radius: 0, 0; -fx-background-insets: 0, 2; -fx-padding: 10; -fx-effect: dropshadow( two-pass-box , rgba(0,0,0,0.6) , 4, 0.0 , 0 , 1 );}



JavaFX 1.3 Layout Enhancements

GridLayout> Based on the JFXtras XGrid> In the JavaFX Preview Package

Fill> Controls how Nodes expand to take available space

Grow/Shrink> Controls how available space is allocated between competing Nodes> Priority values:

– NEVER– SOMETIMES– ALWAYS
