在FXML中使用ObservableList绑定TableView项 - Java FX

Question

I'm unable to bind TableView items with ObservableList in FXML.

Everything works fine when I set materialTable.setItems(materialDataObservableList); in button click event. But I don't want button to know about TableView so I wanted to bind materialTable.items to materialDataObservableList property.

What am I doing wrong? Or maybe I don't understand how binding works...

Thanks for help!

    }

    private void getMaterialsFromRESTController() {
        MaterialClient controller = new MaterialClient();
        try {
            materialDataObservableList = FXCollections.observableArrayList(controller.getMaterias());
        } catch (IOException e) {
            System.out.println("Failed to connect to RESTController");
        }
        //materialTable.setItems(materialDataObservableList);
    }

    public ObservableList<MaterialData> getMaterialDataObservableList() {
        return materialDataObservableList;
    }
}

If you are calling getMaterialsFromRESTController() from MainSceneController 's constructor (so it is initialized as soon as the controller is available to the FXMLLoader ), then

<TableView fx:id="materialTable" editable="true" prefHeight="413.0" prefWidth="600.0" 
    items="${controller.materialDataObservableList}" >

will work. (Note you access a property of the controller with ${controller.property} .)

If not, you can modify the controller as follows to make it work:

public class MainSceneController {


    private final ObservableList<MaterialData> materialDataObservableList 
        = FXCollections.observableArrayList();
    public TableView materialTable;
    public Button getMaterialsButton;

    public void getMaterialsButton() {
        getMaterialsFromRESTController();
    }

    private void getMaterialsFromRESTController() {
        MaterialClient controller = new MaterialClient();
        try {
            materialDataObservableList.setAll(controller.getMaterias());
        } catch (IOException e) {
            System.out.println("Failed to connect to RESTController");
        }
    }

    public ObservableList<MaterialData> getMaterialDataObservableList() {
        return materialDataObservableList;
    }

}

and then the above FXML should work.

Here is a SSCCE:

BindTableItemsExample.fxml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<?import javafx.scene.layout.BorderPane?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.TableView?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.TableColumn?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.cell.PropertyValueFactory?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.Button?>
<?import javafx.geometry.Insets?>

<BorderPane xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1" fx:controller="TableController">
    <center>
        <TableView items="${controller.items}">
            <columns>
                <TableColumn text="Item">
                    <cellValueFactory><PropertyValueFactory property="name" /></cellValueFactory>
                </TableColumn>
            </columns>
        </TableView>
    </center>
    <bottom>
        <Button text="Load" onAction="#loadItems" BorderPane.alignment="center" >
            <BorderPane.margin>
                <Insets top="5" left="5" right="5" bottom="5"/>
            </BorderPane.margin>
        </Button>
    </bottom>
</BorderPane>

TableController.java:

import java.util.List;
import java.util.stream.Collectors;
import java.util.stream.IntStream;

import javafx.beans.property.SimpleStringProperty;
import javafx.beans.property.StringProperty;
import javafx.collections.FXCollections;
import javafx.collections.ObservableList;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;

public class TableController {

    private final ObservableList<Item> items = FXCollections.observableArrayList();

    @FXML
    private void loadItems() {
        items.setAll(createItems());
    }

    private List<Item> createItems() {
        return IntStream.rangeClosed(1, 100)
                .mapToObj(i -> "Item "+i)
                .map(Item::new)
                .collect(Collectors.toList());
    }

    public ObservableList<Item> getItems() {
        return items ;
    }


    public static class Item {
        private final StringProperty name = new SimpleStringProperty();

        public Item(String name) {
            setName(name);
        }

        public final StringProperty nameProperty() {
            return this.name;
        }

        public final java.lang.String getName() {
            return this.nameProperty().get();
        }

        public final void setName(final java.lang.String name) {
            this.nameProperty().set(name);
        }

    }
}
