Class BooleanPropertyBase

javafx.beans.property.BooleanPropertyBase

All Implemented Interfaces:: Observable, Property<Boolean>, ReadOnlyProperty<Boolean>, ObservableBooleanValue, ObservableValue<Boolean>, WritableBooleanValue, WritableValue<Boolean>

Direct Known Subclasses:: SimpleBooleanProperty, StyleableBooleanProperty

public abstract class BooleanPropertyBase
extends BooleanProperty

The class BooleanPropertyBase is the base class for a property wrapping a boolean value. It provides all the functionality required for a property except for the ReadOnlyProperty.getBean() and ReadOnlyProperty.getName() methods, which must be implemented by extending classes.

Since:: JavaFX 2.0
See Also:: BooleanProperty

Constructor Details

BooleanPropertyBase

public BooleanPropertyBase()

The constructor of the BooleanPropertyBase.

BooleanPropertyBase

public BooleanPropertyBase(boolean initialValue)

The constructor of the BooleanPropertyBase.

Parameters:: initialValue - the initial value of the wrapped value

Method Details

fireValueChangedEvent

protected void fireValueChangedEvent()

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

invalidated

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.

bind

public void bind(ObservableValue<? extends Boolean> rawObservable)

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. Note:

Parameters:: rawObservable - The observable this Property should be bound to.

toString

public String toString()

Returns a string representation of this BooleanPropertyBase object.

Overrides:: toString in class BooleanProperty
Returns:: a string representation of this BooleanPropertyBase object.
