JavaFX 2.0FundamentalsProperties, Lists, Binding 18

JavaFX 2.0 Properties>  Primitive Properties>  Object Properties>  FX List Collection Properties>  Properties are: l  Observable l  Lazy l  Type Safe 19

Properties in Java Property Declarationpublic class Person { private StringProperty firstName; public void setFirstName(String val) { firstNameProperty().set(val); } public String getFirstName() { return firstNameProperty().get(); } public StringProperty firstNameProperty() { if (firstName == null) firstName = new SimpleStringProperty(this, "firstName"); return firstName; } } 20

Properties in Javapublic class Person { private StringProperty firstName; public void setFirstName(String val) { firstNameProperty().set(val); } public String getFirstName() { return firstNameProperty().get(); Setter Method } (Convenience) public StringProperty firstNameProperty() { if (firstName == null) firstName = new SimpleStringProperty(this, "firstName"); return firstName; } } 21

Properties in Javapublic class Person { private StringProperty firstName; Getter Method public void setFirstName(String val) { (Convenience) firstNameProperty().set(val); } public String getFirstName() { return firstNameProperty().get(); } public StringProperty firstNameProperty() { if (firstName == null) firstName = new SimpleStringProperty(this, "firstName"); return firstName; } } 22

Properties in Javapublic class Person { private StringProperty firstName; public void setFirstName(String val) { Property Fetcher firstNameProperty().set(val); (Lazy Construction) } public String getFirstName() { return firstNameProperty().get(); } public StringProperty firstNameProperty() { if (firstName == null) firstName = new SimpleStringProperty(this, "firstName"); return firstName; } } 23

Properties in Javapublic class Person { private StringProperty firstName; Even Lazier… public void setFirstName(String val) { firstNameProperty().set(val); } public String getFirstName() { return firstName == null ? null : firstNameProperty().get(); } public StringProperty firstNameProperty() { if (firstName == null) firstName = new SimpleStringProperty(this, "firstName"); return firstName; } } 24

Properties in Javapublic class Person { private StringProperty firstName; public void setFirstName(String val) { With initial value firstNameProperty().set(val); } public String getFirstName() { return firstName == null ? "Peter" : firstNameProperty().get(); } public StringProperty firstNameProperty() { if (firstName == null) firstName = new SimpleStringProperty(this, "firstName", "Peter"); return firstName; } } 25

Demo PropertiesUndirectional, Bidirectional and Lazy binding in Java

Listeners>  Change Listener l  Observable, old value, new value>  Invalidation Listeners l  Observable 2 7

Property Listener Example IntegerProperty temperature = new SimpleIntegerProperty(0); temperature.setOnChangeListener( new ChangeListener<Number>() { public void change( ObservableValue<? Extends Number> ov, Number newValue, Number oldValue) System.out.printf(“%f %f %f”, ov.doubleValue(), oldValue.doubleValue(), newValue.doubleValue() } ); temperature.set(2); temperature.set(4); 28

Hey Ho! This is all just to say:var temperature: Integer = 23 on replace oldValue { println("temperature={temperature}, oldValue={oldValue}"); } // Visage (previously JavaFX Script) 29

JavaFX 2.0 Observable Lists>  Extends java.util.List>  Includes addListener/removeListener>  For bulk operations use: l  addAll l  removeAll l  setAll>  Sort with l  FXCollections.sort() 30

List Change Listenerlist.addListener(new ListChangeListener<Item>() { public void onChanged(Change<Item> c) { while (c.next()) { if (c.wasPermutated()) { for (int i = c.getFrom(); i < c.getTo(); i++) { int newLoc = getPermutation(i); // handle move (a.k.a. sort) } } else { for (Item removed : c.getRemoved()) { // handle removal } for (Item added : c.getAddedSubList()) { // handle addition } }}}}); 31

JavaFX 2.0 Observable Maps>  Extends java.util.Map >  Includes addListener() / removeListener() >  MapChangeListener l  Supports add() / remove() l  Can get associated: l  Key l  Old Value l  New Value 32

Binding in JavaFX 2.0>  One of the most important features of JavaFX 1.3 and prior>  Now supported via an API (that works with Observable Properties)>  Can handle most cases quite elegantly and with full type safety 33

Binding in JavaFX 2.0Infix Addition/Subtraction/Multiplication/Division: heightProperty().bind(rect1.heightProperty().add(rect2.heig htProperty())); Aggregate Operators: widthProperty().bind(Bindings.max(rect1.widthProperty(), rect2.widthProperty(), rect3.widthProperty())); Conditional Expressions: strokeWidthProperty().bind(Bindings.when(hover).then(4).oth erwise(0)); Bidirectional Binding: heightProperty().bindBidirectional(rect1.heightProperty()); 34

JavaFXComponents 57

Pens, papers and inks, first! 58

A component is anencapsulation that bindsa set of nodes with theoperations that act onthose nodes 59

Component Types>  Non-Resizable l  javafx.scene.shape.Shape l  javafx.scene.Group >  Resizable l  javafx.scene.layout.Pane l  javafx.scene.layout.Region l  javafx.scene.layout.Control 6 0

Group based>  Particularly using the JavaFX primitive nodes under javafx.scene.shape.*;>  Design is not meant to be resized>  Layout is fixed at construction / initialisation time 6 1

Region based>  Region is the sub class of javafx.scene.Parent >  Adds the ability to resize a node, layout a particular set of children 6 2

Control based>  Allows particular subclass of Region that permits skinning of node with a stylesheet>  You need 3 classes l  The Control java.scene.control.Control l  The Skinnable java.scene.control.Skinnable l  The Behaviour com.sun.javafx.scene.control.BehaviorBase 6 3

Control based contd>  See JFXtras.org for more examples of skinnable components written for JavaFX 2.0>  Define CSS file referencing a Skin class>  A Skin is a Region (JavaFX 2.0)com.sun.javafx.scene.control.BehaviorBase com.sun.javafx.scene.control.SkinBase 6 4

Skins are StackPanes>  SkinBase is a type of StackPane >  A StackPane is a Region>  Idea of shuffling a deck of cards and only showing one 6 5

Layout Children Methodvoid layoutChildren() >  Layout all of the children of a Region based component>  Compute the preferred width and height of the children (first)>  May cache those values internally as part of the component or use Constraints 6 6

Layout Boundaries>  SDK will make a request to find the best width and height for your component.>  Your component must do the same for its children>  Implement at least computePrefWidth and computePrefHeight methods! 6 7

Layout Methodsprotected double computePrefHeight(double w) { return child.prefHeight(w) + 2 *ht; } protected double computePrefWidth(double h) { return child.prefWidth(h) + 2 * wt; } 6 8

Pedantic CompleteImplement the other four methods too>  computeMinWidth(v)>  computeMinHeight(v)>  computeMaxWidth(v)>  computeMaxHeight(v) 6 9

DemoCustom Border Layout

Writing JavaFX Containers

Event Input on Node>  Mouse Events fall under the pointer iteraction (single) l  Clicked, Entered, Exited, Pressed, Dragged, Released, Wheel l  Target Entered, Target Exited>  Key Events l  Clicked, Pressed, Released

Event Input on Node>  It is possible to consume an event and stop it bubbling further down the scene-graph hierarchy>  You can block a component from event interaction>  Using clever tricks (opaque shape) you can implement dialog / focus / modal behaviour

Tips>  When Dragging a Node prefer to translate (X,Y)>  When Laying Out a Node prefer to set the position with layoutX, layoutY>  Given steady state conditions you can swap layout (X,Y) for translation (X,Y)

Tips 2>  Use blocking boolean flags to prevent conflict when you animating children in a container>  If you are unsure about MT concurrency you can always use AtomicBoolean>  Prefer JavaFX Properties

JavaFX With Scala 122

What is Scala 2001 2006 •  Scala Started •  Scala v2.0 2003/2004 2011 •  Scala v1.0 •  Scala 2.9.0 (latest)>  Started in 2001 by Martin Odersky>  Compiles to Java bytecodes>  Pure object-oriented language>  Also a functional programming language 123

Why Scala?>  Shares many language features with JavaFX Script that make GUI programming easier: l  Static Type Checking – Catch your errors at compile time l  Closures – Wrap behavior and pass it by reference l  Declarative – Express the UI by describing what it should look like>  Scala also supports Type Safe DSLs! l  Implicit Conversions – type safe class extension l  Operator Overloading – with standard precedence rules l  DelayedInit / @specialized – advanced language features 124
