Topic#01 Creating a Basic Window

package javafxtopics;

import static javafx.application.Application.launch;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;
import javafx.event.EventHandler;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class JavaFXTopics extends Application {

public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);//This is the method inside the Aplication class
}

button.setText("Click me");//setting text on the button e.g.Click me

//To display anything on the screen need to make a layout(Layout is essantially just how you
want everything arranged on your screen)
StackPane layout = new StackPane();//StackPane is the really simple layout it's going to
position this button in the middle
layout.getChildren().add(button);//to organized everything in position call getChildren
and add the button by using add

Scene scene = new Scene(layout,350,250);//This first parameters scenes take is the layout
how do you want stuff arrranged in your scene and other two parameters are the size of your
scene 350 is the width and 250 is the height
primaryStage.setScene(scene);//setting the scene in the Window
primaryStage.show();//It just displays it to the user

//Window is called "Stage" and the content in the Window is called the "Scene"

}
}

Output:

Topic#02 Handle User Events

Whenever we click this button we want to perform so kind of action so our program becomes
interactive. So to handle these types of events we need to implement an interface called
EventHandler.
package javafxtopics;

public class JavaFXTopics extends Application implements EventHandler<ActionEvent> {

/*For EventHandler there are bunch of different types of events For e.g. there is a button
click and there are Mouse events whenever the
user moves their mouse around ,there is also touch events for touch devices whenever user
touch screen*/
//but of a simple button click we use <ActionEvent>
Button button;//Create button Here name of the Button is "button"

public static void main(String[] args) {

launch(args);//This is the method inside the Aplication class
}

button.setText("Click me");//setting text on the button e.g.Click me

button.setOnAction(this);//This class will handle the button events

Scene scene = new Scene(layout, 350, 250);//This first parameters scenes take is the
layout how do you want stuff arrranged in your scene and other two parameters are the size of
your scene 350 is the width and 250 is the height
primaryStage.setScene(scene);//setting the scene in the Window
primaryStage.show();//It just displays it to the user

//Window is called "Stage" and the content in the Window is called the "Scene"
}

@Override
public void handle(ActionEvent event) {/*Handle method is going to be called whenever
user clicks the button so whenever they click the button
that is called an event)e.g. MouseEvents,TouchEvents etc...*/
if (event.getSource() == button) {//This is uesd for identify the particular button(it
matches what particular button is click)
System.out.println("Ok! Button has click!");//If it mathces the button then verify and
print the message that button has click
//if we have another buttons then we use else if condition
}
}
}

Alternatives ways of handling user events

button.setText("Click me");//setting text on the button e.g.Click me

//THis class will handle the button events
//Anonymous inner class code
/* button.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>(){//instead of implementing
EventHandler we pass in Parameter this is called as anonymous inner class
@Override
public void handle(ActionEvent event){//whenever button click occured,we needed to
call this handle method and it was inside the EventHandler interface
System.out.println("I am an anonymous inner class!");
}
}
);*/

/*(reason of using this code is that it is the little bit cleaner and not having your code spread
out all over the place,whenever you use
anonymous inner classes you don't have to check the event source)
but if we use this anonymous code for multiple buttons it creates the problem that's why in
this condition we use lambda expressions*/

//instead of implementing anything or using an anonymous inner class use this Lamda
expression code

//Lambda Expression Code

// button.setOnAction(e-> System.out.println("Lambda Expression code!"));for one line code
button.setOnAction(e-> {
System.out.println("Lambda Expression code!");
System.out.println("Cograts!Button is working");
});//It is easier than writing any code or implementing the interface
//e represents the event and the paramter write to the left hand side and any code want to run
goes on right side

Scene scene = new Scene(layout, 350, 250);//This first parameters scenes take is the
layout how do you want stuff arrranged in your scene and other two parameters are the size of
your scene 350 is the width and 250 is the height

If the user clicks on no button program will not be closed

If the user clicks on min bar then it consume the event and hold yes or no manually by
using e.consume
If we not use e.consume then our program will close by click on min bar.

right hand side."v" stands for observable it is the property of the item itself,2nd is the old
value for e.g.if you had apple selected
by default and now you select the ham so ham is the new value which prints on the

select the new item they print the new value on screen because we want to print the new

Topic#14 Combo Box(Functionality with Button)

Combo Box is essentially a really awesome drop down menu. These combo box can actually
generate actions so we don’t have to stick listeners on them. With a regular drop down menu
click button drop down got some options but with a combo box you can either select one of these
options or type one in yourself.

Topic#15 ListView
List View is a little bit different than other lists because first of all it’s not a drop down and
another reason that is different is unlike a drop down list where you can select only one item
from the list whenever you have a list view you can select multiple items. It is similar to a combo
box.

Topic#16 Tree View
A tree view is special type of list JavaFX because you can take your list items and arrange them
in a hierarchy. So whenever we create a main tree we always need a root so every tree has one
singe root. So if we have a root we can start adding branches to it and your branches can have
other branches or you can have a single item on branch. And whenever you have an item that
does not have any children called a leaf.

changes.

Topic#31 Introduction to FXML

FXML is the HTML for Java. You can use it to design the view, in other words the layout or the
interface for the user and then you can stick all of your brains all of the logic in a separate file
called a Controller. Reason to use FXML because it breaks up your view and your logic so, it
organizes your project a little bit easier. FXML is based on XML language
First one is the main that is our starting point.
Second one is the Controller.
And third one is FXML.

Topic#33 Initialize, Binding and Reusable Components

How to use an initializer and how to perform a binding in FXML.
Binding is to tie a property of one object to a property of another object.
Main Class

package fxmlexample;
import java.io.IOException;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.*;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class FXMLExample extends Application {
Stage window;
//whenever the program first starts it call main
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
//after main call will "start"
@Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws IOException {
Parent r=FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("FXMLDocument.fxml"));//kick off
the resource which is "FXMLDocument.fxml" file
/*FMXL file tied to the FXMLDocumentController.java*/
window=primaryStage;
window.setTitle("Here Title");
Scene scene=new Scene(r,300,200);
window.setScene(scene);
window.show();

}
}

Controller Class
package fxmlexample;

import java.net.URL;
import java.util.ResourceBundle;
import javafx.fxml.Initializable;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;

/*whenever we click the button to print something on the terminal e.g.whenever we submit a
form a send it to the database,all the behind the scenes
logic stick into this class*/
//only one FXML file can only have a one single controller
public class FXMLDocumentController implements Initializable {//whenever we use
"initilizable" we actually need to implement one method called initialize
@Override
//without call any method manually,it calls initialize
public void initialize(URL location, ResourceBundle resources){
System.out.println("(This is the part of Initializable ) Loading User Data ");
}

FXML File
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.*?>

<VBox id="AnchorPane" prefHeight="400.0" prefWidth="600.0"

xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1"
fx:controller="fxmlexample.FXMLDocumentController">

<fx:define> 
<ToggleGroup fx:id="togglegroup"/>
</fx:define>

<Label text= "Difficulty"/>

<RadioButton text="Easy" toggleGroup="$togglegroup"/>
<RadioButton text="Medium" toggleGroup="$togglegroup"/>
<RadioButton text="Hard" toggleGroup="$togglegroup"/>
</VBox>
