How to pass a Variable through JavaFX Application to the Controller?
17,240
First you will have to add the setter and getter in the MyClass (as the var is private
) and change it to static:
private static String myVariable;
public String getMyVariable() {
return myVariable;
}
public void setMyVariable(String myVariable) {
this.myVariable = myVariable;
}
Then, as the MyClass is static can do:
System.out.println(MyClass.getMyVariable());
Working example:
MyClass.java
import java.net.URL;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.fxml.JavaFXBuilderFactory;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class MyClass extends Application {
private static String myVariable;
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
@Override
public void start(Stage stage) throws Exception {
setMyVariable("Anything");
URL location = getClass().getResource("MyGui.fxml");
FXMLLoader fxmlLoader = new FXMLLoader();
fxmlLoader.setLocation(location);
fxmlLoader.setBuilderFactory(new JavaFXBuilderFactory());
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(location);
Scene scene = new Scene(root);
stage.setTitle("Hello Word");
stage.setScene(scene);
stage.show();
}
public static String getMyVariable() {
return myVariable;
}
public static void setMyVariable(String myVariable) {
MyClass.myVariable = myVariable;
}
}
MyController.java
import java.net.URL;
import java.util.ResourceBundle;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.fxml.Initializable;
import javafx.scene.control.Label;
public class MyController implements Initializable{
@FXML Label labelVar;
@Override
public void initialize(URL arg0, ResourceBundle arg1) {
labelVar.setText(labelVar.getText() + MyClass.getMyVariable());
}
}
MyGui.fxml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?import java.lang.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.*?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.*?>
<Pane maxHeight="-Infinity" maxWidth="-Infinity" minHeight="-Infinity" minWidth="-Infinity" prefHeight="110.0" prefWidth="305.0" xmlns="http://javafx.com/javafx/8" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1" fx:controller="MyController">
<children>
<Label fx:id="labelVar" layoutX="24.0" layoutY="32.0" prefHeight="17.0" prefWidth="129.0" text="MyVariable = " />
</children>
</Pane>

I'd like to ask if it is possible to pass a Variable through a JavaFX Class what extends Application to my JavaFx Controller? I am very new to JavaFx and only may need a little kick.
The goal is to pass a Id from MyClass to MyController.
My Application class:
public class MyClass extends Application { private String myVariable="Anything"; public static void main(String[] args) { launch(args); } @Override public void start(Stage stage) throws Exception { URL location = getClass().getResource("MyGui.fxml"); FXMLLoader fxmlLoader = new FXMLLoader(); fxmlLoader.setLocation(location); fxmlLoader.setBuilderFactory(new JavaFXBuilderFactory()); Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(location); Scene scene = new Scene(root); stage.setTitle(title); stage.setScene(scene); stage.show(); } }
My Controller:
public class Controller extends Group implements Binding { public void initialize(Map<String, Object> namespace, URL location, Resources resources) { // HERE I'D LIKE TO GET MY VARIABLE LIKE System.out.println(myVariable); } @Override public List<Handler> getHandlerChain() { return null; } @Override public void setHandlerChain(List<Handler> chain) { } @Override public String getBindingID() { return null; } }
