The class SetPropertyBase is the base class for a property wrapping an javafx.collections.ObservableSet. It provides all the functionality required for a property except for the getBean() and getName() methods, which must be implemented by extending classes.

Method Detail

addListenerback to summary
public void addListener(InvalidationListener listener)

Implements javafx.beans.Observable.addListener.

Doc from javafx.beans.Observable.addListener.

Adds an InvalidationListener which will be notified whenever the Observable becomes invalid. If the same listener is added more than once, then it will be notified more than once. That is, no check is made to ensure uniqueness.

Note that the same actual InvalidationListener instance may be safely registered for different Observables.

The Observable stores a strong reference to the listener which will prevent the listener from being garbage collected and may result in a memory leak. It is recommended to either unregister a listener by calling removeListener after use or to use an instance of WeakInvalidationListener avoid this situation.

public void addListener(ChangeListener<? super ObservableSet<E>> listener)

Implements javafx.beans.value.ObservableValue.addListener.

Doc from javafx.beans.value.ObservableValue.addListener.

Adds a ChangeListener which will be notified whenever the value of the ObservableValue changes. If the same listener is added more than once, then it will be notified more than once. That is, no check is made to ensure uniqueness.

Note that the same actual ChangeListener instance may be safely registered for different ObservableValues.

The ObservableValue stores a strong reference to the listener which will prevent the listener from being garbage collected and may result in a memory leak. It is recommended to either unregister a listener by calling removeListener after use or to use an instance of WeakChangeListener avoid this situation.

public void bind(final ObservableValue<? extends ObservableSet<E>> newObservable)

Implements javafx.beans.property.Property.bind.

Doc from javafx.beans.property.Property.bind.

Create a unidirection binding for this Property.

Note that JavaFX has all the bind calls implemented through weak listeners. This means the bound property can be garbage collected and stopped from being updated.

Annotations

public ReadOnlyBooleanProperty emptyProperty()

Doc from javafx.beans.binding.SetExpression.emptyProperty.

A boolean property that is true, if the set is empty.

Annotations
@Override
fireValueChangedEventback to summary
protected void fireValueChangedEvent()

Sends notifications to all attached InvalidationListeners, ChangeListeners, and javafx.collections.SetChangeListener. This method is called when the value is changed, either manually by calling set(javafx.collections.ObservableSet) or in case of a bound property, if the binding becomes invalid.

fireValueChangedEventback to summary
protected void fireValueChangedEvent(SetChangeListener.Change<? extends E> change)

Sends notifications to all attached InvalidationListeners, ChangeListeners, and javafx.collections.SetChangeListener. This method is called when the content of the list changes.

Parameters
change:SetChangeListener.Change<? extends E>

the change that needs to be propagated

getback to summary
public ObservableSet<E> get()

Implements javafx.beans.value.WritableObjectValue.get, javafx.beans.value.ObservableObjectValue.get.

Doc from javafx.beans.value.WritableObjectValue.get.

Get the wrapped value. This must be identical to the value returned from getValue().

This method exists only to align WritableObjectValue API with WritableBooleanValue and subclasses of WritableNumberValue

Annotations
@Override
invalidatedback to summary
protected void invalidated()

The method invalidated() can be overridden to receive invalidation notifications. This is the preferred option in Objects defining the property, because it requires less memory. The default implementation is empty.

public void removeListener(InvalidationListener listener)

Implements javafx.beans.Observable.removeListener.

Doc from javafx.beans.Observable.removeListener.

Removes the given listener from the list of listeners, that are notified whenever the value of the Observable becomes invalid.

If the given listener has not been previously registered (i.e. it was never added) then this method call is a no-op. If it had been previously added then it will be removed. If it had been added more than once, then only the first occurrence will be removed.
