Class DoubleProperty

java.lang.Object

javafx.beans.binding.DoubleExpression

javafx.beans.property.ReadOnlyDoubleProperty

javafx.beans.property.DoubleProperty

All Implemented Interfaces:

NumberExpression, Observable, Property<java.lang.Number>, ReadOnlyProperty<java.lang.Number>, ObservableDoubleValue, ObservableNumberValue, ObservableValue<java.lang.Number>, WritableDoubleValue, WritableNumberValue, WritableValue<java.lang.Number>

Direct Known Subclasses:

DoublePropertyBase, JavaBeanDoubleProperty

public abstract class DoubleProperty
extends ReadOnlyDoubleProperty
implements Property<java.lang.Number>, WritableDoubleValue

This class defines a Property wrapping a double value.

The value of a DoubleProperty can be get and set with ObservableDoubleValue.get(), DoubleExpression.getValue(), WritableDoubleValue.set(double), and setValue(Number).

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 DoubleProperty can be read with ReadOnlyProperty.getBean() and ReadOnlyProperty.getName().

Note: setting or binding this property to a null value will set the property to "0.0". See setValue(java.lang.Number).

Method Detail

setValue

public void setValue(java.lang.Number v)

Set the wrapped value.

Specified by:

setValue in interface WritableDoubleValue

Specified by:

setValue in interface WritableValue<java.lang.Number>

Parameters:

v - The new value

bindBidirectional

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

Create a bidirectional binding between this Property and another one.

Specified by:

bindBidirectional in interface Property<java.lang.Number>

Parameters:

other - the other Property

unbindBidirectional

public void unbindBidirectional(Property<java.lang.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.

Specified by:

unbindBidirectional in interface Property<java.lang.Number>

Parameters:

other - the other Property

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Returns a string representation of this DoubleProperty object.

Overrides:

toString in class ReadOnlyDoubleProperty

Returns:

a string representation of this DoubleProperty object.

doubleProperty

public static DoubleProperty doubleProperty(Property<java.lang.Double> property)

Returns a DoubleProperty 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 DoubleProperty.

   DoubleProperty doubleProperty = new SimpleDoubleProperty(1.0);
   ObjectProperty<Double> objectProperty = new SimpleObjectProperty<>(2.0);

   // Need to keep the reference as bidirectional binding uses weak references
   DoubleProperty objectAsDouble = DoubleProperty.doubleProperty(objectProperty);

   doubleProperty.bindBidirectional(objectAsDouble);

 

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

Note: null values in the source property will be interpreted as 0.0

Parameters:

property - The source Property

Returns:

A DoubleProperty that wraps the Property

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException - if value is null

See Also:

asObject()

asObject

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

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

Can be used for binding an ObjectProperty to DoubleProperty.

   DoubleProperty doubleProperty = new SimpleDoubleProperty(1.0);
   ObjectProperty<Double> objectProperty = new SimpleObjectProperty<>(2.0);

   objectProperty.bind(doubleProperty.asObject());
 

Overrides:

asObject in class ReadOnlyDoubleProperty

Returns:

the new ObjectProperty
