Class StringProperty
- javafx.beans.binding.StringExpression
-
- javafx.beans.property.ReadOnlyStringProperty
-
- javafx.beans.property.StringProperty
All Implemented Interfaces:
Observable, Property<String>, ReadOnlyProperty<String>, ObservableObjectValue<String>, ObservableStringValue, ObservableValue<String>, WritableObjectValue<String>, WritableStringValue, WritableValue<String>
Direct Known Subclasses:
public abstract class StringProperty extends ReadOnlyStringProperty implements Property<String>, WritableStringValue
Property wrapping a String value. The value of a StringProperty can be get and set with ObservableObjectValue.get(), StringExpression.getValue(), WritableObjectValue.set(Object), and setValue(String). 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 StringProperty can be read with ReadOnlyProperty.getBean() and ReadOnlyProperty.getName().Since:

setValue
public void setValue(String v)
Set the wrapped value.Specified by:
setValuein interfaceWritableValue<String>Parameters:
v- The new value
-
bindBidirectional
public void bindBidirectional(Property<String> other)
Create a bidirectional binding between thisPropertyand 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:
bindBidirectionalin interfaceProperty<String>Parameters:
other- the otherProperty
-
bindBidirectional
public void bindBidirectional(Property<?> other, Format format)Create a bidirectional binding between thisStringPropertyand another arbitrary property. Relies on an implementation ofFormatfor conversion.Parameters:
other- the otherPropertyThrows:
NullPointerException- ifotherorformatisnullSince:
JavaFX 2.1
-
bindBidirectional
public <T> void bindBidirectional(Property<T> other, StringConverter<T> converter)Create a bidirectional binding between thisStringPropertyand another arbitrary property. Relies on an implementation ofStringConverterfor conversion.Parameters:
other- the otherPropertyThrows:
NullPointerException- ifotherorconverterisnullSince:
JavaFX 2.1
-
unbindBidirectional
public void unbindBidirectional(Property<String> other)
Remove a bidirectional binding between thisPropertyand 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:
unbindBidirectionalin interfaceProperty<String>Parameters:
other- the otherProperty
-
unbindBidirectional
public void unbindBidirectional(Object other)
Remove a bidirectional binding between thisPropertyand another one. If no bidirectional binding between the properties exists, calling this method has no effect.Parameters:
other- the otherPropertyThrows:
NullPointerException- ifotherisnullSince:
JavaFX 2.1
-
toString
public String toString()
Returns a string representation of thisStringPropertyobject.Overrides:
toStringin classReadOnlyStringPropertyReturns:
a string representation of this
StringPropertyobject.
