Class BooleanProperty

java.lang.Object

javafx.beans.binding.BooleanExpression

javafx.beans.property.ReadOnlyBooleanProperty

javafx.beans.property.BooleanProperty

All Implemented Interfaces:

Observable, Property<java.lang.Boolean>, ReadOnlyProperty<java.lang.Boolean>, ObservableBooleanValue, ObservableValue<java.lang.Boolean>, WritableBooleanValue, WritableValue<java.lang.Boolean>

Direct Known Subclasses:

BooleanPropertyBase, JavaBeanBooleanProperty

public abstract class BooleanProperty
extends ReadOnlyBooleanProperty
implements Property<java.lang.Boolean>, WritableBooleanValue

This class provides a full implementation of a Property wrapping a boolean value.

The value of a BooleanProperty can be get and set with ObservableBooleanValue.get(), BooleanExpression.getValue(), WritableBooleanValue.set(boolean), and setValue(Boolean).

A property can be bound and unbound unidirectional with Property.bind(ObservableValue) and Property.unbind(). Bidirectional bindings can be created and removed with bindBidirectional(Property) and unbindBidirectional(Property).

The context of a BooleanProperty can be read with ReadOnlyProperty.getBean() and ReadOnlyProperty.getName().

Note: setting or binding this property to a null value will set the property to "false". See setValue(java.lang.Boolean).

Method Detail

setValue

public void setValue(java.lang.Boolean v)

Set the wrapped value.

Specified by:

setValue in interface WritableBooleanValue

Specified by:

setValue in interface WritableValue<java.lang.Boolean>

Parameters:

v - The new value

bindBidirectional

public void bindBidirectional(Property<java.lang.Boolean> other)

Create a bidirectional binding between this Property and another one.

Specified by:

bindBidirectional in interface Property<java.lang.Boolean>

Parameters:

other - the other Property

unbindBidirectional

public void unbindBidirectional(Property<java.lang.Boolean> 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.

Specified by:

unbindBidirectional in interface Property<java.lang.Boolean>

Parameters:

other - the other Property

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Returns a string representation of this BooleanProperty object.

Overrides:

toString in class ReadOnlyBooleanProperty

Returns:

a string representation of this BooleanProperty object.

booleanProperty

public static BooleanProperty booleanProperty(Property<java.lang.Boolean> property)

Returns a BooleanProperty that wraps a Property. If the Property is already a BooleanProperty, it will be returned. Otherwise a new BooleanProperty is created that is bound to the Property. Note: null values in the source property will be interpreted as "false"

Parameters:

property - The source Property

Returns:

A BooleanProperty that wraps the Property if necessary

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException - if value is null

asObject

public ObjectProperty<java.lang.Boolean> asObject()

Creates an ObjectProperty that holds the value of this BooleanProperty. If the value of this BooleanProperty changes, the value of the ObjectProperty will be updated automatically.

Overrides:

asObject in class ReadOnlyBooleanProperty

Returns:

the new ObjectProperty
