JavaFX 2.0 :: How To Access Application From Controller
Sep 25, 2014
I do Java for decades, but am a FXML beginner. Currently I do FXMLLoader.load(fxmlFile) in Application.start(), which is working well. My Application instance is creating a background thread in Application.init() which feeds several custom application properties with incoming data taken from a remote model (wrapping a sensor hardware). Some of my windows shall later be able to access those properties. So the question is: How can I inject my Application instance into the FXMLLoader-created controller instances auto-bound to the FXML-created Scene instances?

I used the SceneBuilder to create an applications and it works quite well. Now I got a problem to set the pref. size of a ScrollPane to the size of the app.
I want to install a binding between the scroll pane's pref. size and the stage's pref. size. Since the scroll pane field reside in the FXMLController class I need a way to access this field.

Sometimes models needs to access blocking devices, like network cards, databases, files, and so on. This should be done by worker threads or services. But who is in charge of that? The controller or the model itself? I tend to say it is the model, as only the model knows about the fact that it accesses a blocking object. On the other hand, it is said that a model should be a POJO, so it would be the controller's job. Is there a best practice or general design rule?

I am coming from a Seam 2 and ATG background, and working on re-writing an old Seam 2 application using JSF 2 on Tomcat 8. I've run into a snag:
I have an application scoped managed bean, let's call it EMail. It holds a collection of Email objects, and does some other stuff.
I have an IMAPClient, which is currently setup as an application scoped managed bean (mostly to simply configuration, etc...).
I need to call a method on the IMAPClient to go check email every X seconds (let's call it 60 seconds), and add any new email into the Email managed bean's collection of email. In Seam 2 this was easy with the @Asynchronous annotation. In JSF 2 I can't figure out how to do it. I've tried using Quartz, which will happily run my IMAPCheckJob every 60 seconds, but I am so far unable to figure out how the IMAPCheckJob can get access to either the IMAPClient or the EMail beans.. There's no dependency injection into the Quartz Job, and since it's not executing in a HTTP request flow, there's no Faces context available.
It seems like there has to be some way to allow for scheduling and still have access to the benefits of the Application scoped managed bean DI system...
Or do I need to give up and move to JBoss with EJBs and CDI instead of JSF beans?

I have following methods, which I call from the Event Dispatcher Thread:
public void setTitle(String title) {
Platform.runLater(() -> stage.setTitle(title));}
public String getTitle() {
return stage.getTitle(); // <- Access from outside JFX App Thread ok?}
Is it thread-safe, when the getter-Method just return the value like the example show? Or must I create a Runnable, so stage.getTitle() is called inside the Java Application Thread? How I return the value then?

Our users want us to build the following ontop of a TableView: When a key was typed, the row selection shall change to the first row showing a cell in a given column whose getText() starts with the typed letter. Such a functionality is known from lots of other software, like the Windows file explorer, where you can type a key to jump to the first file starting with that letter. It shouldn't be too complex to build, but due to the separation of "items" and "formatted cell text" it actually is... :-(
Using TableColumn.getCellData(S) we can access the item, but at that point, we don't want to repeat the formatting just for the sake of this functionality. We have set a cell factory providing this format, so the view looks great, but how can we access that formatted String programmatically to jump to the right row at a later time?

I have a UI that uses fx:include to include a handful of nodes in a StackPane. So far I have less than 10 panes and I can already notice a delay of ~3 seconds (on an older machine) when the initial scene is built. It's especially noticeable because I'm using a pre-loader with a progress bar. The progress bar runs smoothly until the pre-loader calls start() on my application. After that, the scene is built on the application thread, so the progress bar doesn't get any more updates. It looks like the progress bar freezes until the main scene is built and shown.
I was hoping I could build the main scene on the JavaFX launcher thread, but that doesn't work. I tried it and, not surprisingly, get an exception for not being on the application thread. What are the options, if any, for making an application's start up feel a bit smoother?

I need to work with multiple threads in background in a JavaFX application. I have a screen with ten buttons and I need to 'bind' each thread with the button that started the thread. If the user pressed a button that had started a thread (in the main screen, MainController.java), I need to recover it to display the information that contains to display it on the controls of Details Screen ( a second screen, DetailController.java).
What Class do you recommend for this? Service?
[URL] ....
It is possible to name the threads with any of these classes?

I'm new in JavaFX world. I'm going to write an application using FXML and this application will use embedded database. Is there any tutorial or example showing how to connect FXML (using controller as I expect) with database. I'm using Hibernate with classic JAva - is it possible to work with Hibernate with JavaFX?

What would be the most effective method to display data grabbed from a web source that is queried every second, for example the most recent EUR/USD price?
I already have access to the data stream, and I've built a simple FXML in javaFX that contains a grid; I'm not sure how to approach putting the live ticking data into the grid so it continues to update as the price changes, for example.

For information, The structure of my application :
app

The behavior of JDK 1.8.0_20 about the management of the preloading mecanism is it different of the behavior of JDK 1.8 (B116) ?

I have the following problem:
Let's say, there is a simple Java application. It could either be a Swing or JavaFX or a plain Console application.
Then there are kind of X plugin jars which can be also on the classpath.
The main application (e.g. main.jar) scans the classpath for classes, which implement an plugin interface. For each found implementation it invokes some method on the interface.
The interesting part now is, that upon calling the interface method, some plugins may want to popup a JavaFX window.
And the problem is, that I can't just call Platform.runLater there, because of "java.lang.IllegalStateException: Toolkit not initialized".
And if I somehow manage to call Application.launch() (when? where?) in the plugin then there's the danger, that the second plugin gets "IllegalStateException: Application launch must not be called more than once"
I also don't want to call launch() in the main application, since it is not necessarily an JavaFX application.
Do I maybe need to start separate JVM in the plugin? Could it still communicate with the original JVM then (main.jar)?

Any documentation that deals with assigining an icon to your application? I have tried the:
"stage.getIcons().add(new Image(this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("myicon.png")));"
Code as suggested on the web. It looks like this changes the icon in the window decoration only, which doesn't actually show on my Ubuntu desktop with Unity. What I really want is a custom icon for when I alt-tab through open applications. Currently it shows the default grey question mark. How do I assign an icon to the application.

I'm creating UI's that run on top of backend tools that can run from seconds to days and output GB's of generated data (imagine running tar on the Google servers).
I understand how to execute my backed tools using a runtime process and how to interact with them, and running a simple text as a command line Java app works as expected. The issue occurs when I wrap the code in a JavaFX frount end UI try to update the UI elements in a reasonable manner. If I simply use System.out.println() as in the command line version, I see the output from my task. However, simply trying to put that same output into a TextArea using .appendText() doesn't update the TextArea until the background process completes.
I see all sorts of clippings relating to Task, CreateProcess, invokeLater, updateProgress, but none of them seem to solve their original posters' question (nor mine at this point).

Model View Controller design pattern I completely understand then I was told about the observer controller pattern. After reading and reading I and watching video clips on youtube explaining it I have a question:
Isn't the actionListener the observer so to speak. It is firing whatever action it is told to do and dynamically updates the program to.
Example, I have a JButtons and a JTextArea. I press the button and it gives the current stock price of some stock, I press it again it refreshes. Sounds like an observer to me... Am i on the right track here?

create an application following the MVC pattern. My frame is composed of a JTable with some JComboBox and classic next/previous buttons to page the table. The table shows data of current accounts of the members of a family. My problem is figuring out how the controller interacts with the view, for example to enable / disable buttons or reset and reload the data in the comboboxes. In the view class all the graphical components are private instance variables. What is the best approach to ensure that the controller can act on them?
I need to create in the view public methods to act on each component like getSelectedItemAccountCombo, getSelectedItemYearsCombo, getSelectedItemMonthCombo, populateAccountCombo (ArrayList <String> list), setNextButton (boolean b) ... and so on (I think that the methods would be many ...) This approach does not convince me because I think that the class is fouled by procedures that should be in the controller class.
