JavaFX Example
var x = 0.0;
var y = 10;
var rect = Rectangle { x: bind x y: bind x fill: Color.BLUE};
var anim = Timeline {
keyFrames: [
at(0s) { x=>5 },
at(0s) { rect.fill=>Color.GREEN},
at(500ms) { x=>200, radius=>50 tween EASEIN },
at(1s) { action: function () {
System.out.println("time is now");
}}
repeatCount: Timeline.INDEFINITE
]
}
anim.start();

Invoking JavaScript
// The way it is
var applet = FX.getArgument(“javafx.applet”) as
java.applet.Applet;
if (applet != null) {
var window:JSObject = JSObject.getWindow(applet);
window.call(“generateResultTable”, catalog.data);
}
// The way it will be
ext.eval(“generateResultTable”, catalog.data);
