  • bindBidirectional

    public void bindBidirectional(Property<Number> other)

    Create a bidirectional binding between this Property and another one. Bidirectional bindings exists independently of unidirectional bindings. So it is possible to add unidirectional binding to a property with bidirectional binding and vice-versa. However, this practice is discouraged.

    It is possible to have multiple bidirectional bindings of one Property.

    JavaFX bidirectional binding implementation use weak listeners. This means bidirectional binding does not prevent properties from being garbage collected.

    Specified by:

    bindBidirectional in interface Property<Number>

    Parameters:

    other - the other Property

  • unbindBidirectional

    public void unbindBidirectional(Property<Number> other)

    Remove a bidirectional binding between this Property and another one. If no bidirectional binding between the properties exists, calling this method has no effect. It is possible to unbind by a call on the second property. This code will work:

    property1.bindBirectional(property2);
         property2.unbindBidirectional(property1);

    Specified by:

    unbindBidirectional in interface Property<Number>

    Parameters:

    other - the other Property

  • toString

    public String toString()

    Returns a string representation of this FloatProperty object.

    Overrides:

    toString in class ReadOnlyFloatProperty

    Returns:

    a string representation of this FloatProperty object.

  • floatProperty

    public static FloatProperty floatProperty(Property<Float> property)

    Returns a FloatProperty that wraps a Property and is bidirectionally bound to it. Changing this property will result in a change of the original property.

    This is very useful when bidirectionally binding an ObjectProperty and a FloatProperty.

    FloatProperty floatProperty = new SimpleFloatProperty(1.0f);
       ObjectProperty<Float> objectProperty = new SimpleObjectProperty<>(2.0f);
    
       // Need to keep the reference as bidirectional binding uses weak references
       FloatProperty objectAsFloat = FloatProperty.floatProperty(objectProperty);
    
       floatProperty.bindBidirectional(objectAsFloat);

    Another approach is to convert the FloatProperty to ObjectProperty using asObject() method.

    Note: null values in the source property will be interpreted as 0f

    Parameters:

    property - The source Property

    Returns:

    A FloatProperty that wraps the Property

    Throws:

    NullPointerException - if property is null

    JavaFX 8.0

  • asObject

    public ObjectProperty<Float> asObject()

    Creates an ObjectProperty that bidirectionally bound to this FloatProperty. If the value of this FloatProperty changes, the value of the ObjectProperty will be updated automatically and vice-versa.

    Can be used for binding an ObjectProperty to FloatProperty.

    FloatProperty floatProperty = new SimpleFloatProperty(1.0f);
       ObjectProperty<Float> objectProperty = new SimpleObjectProperty<>(2.0f);
    
       objectProperty.bind(floatProperty.asObject());

    Overrides:

    asObject in class ReadOnlyFloatProperty

    Returns:

    the new ObjectProperty
