public abstract class LongProperty
extends ReadOnlyLongProperty
implements Property<Number>, WritableLongValue

This class defines a Property wrapping a long value.

The value of a LongProperty can be get and set with ObservableLongValue.get(), ObservableValue.getValue(), WritableLongValue.set(long), and WritableLongValue.setValue(Number).

A property can be bound and unbound unidirectional with Property.bind(ObservableValue) and Property.unbind(). Bidirectional bindings can be created and removed with Property.bindBidirectional(Property) and Property.unbindBidirectional(Property).

The context of a LongProperty can be read with ReadOnlyProperty.getBean() and ReadOnlyProperty.getName().

Note: setting or binding this property to a null value will set the property to "0.0". See WritableLongValue.setValue(java.lang.Number).

JavaFX 2.0

Method Detail

toString

public String toString()

Returns a string representation of this LongProperty object.

Overrides:

toString in class ReadOnlyLongProperty

Returns:

a string representation of this LongProperty object.

longProperty

public static LongProperty longProperty(Property<Long> property)

Returns a LongProperty that wraps a Property and is bidirectionally bound to it. Changing this property will result in a change of the original property.

This is very useful when bidirectionally binding an ObjectProperty<Long> and a LongProperty.

   LongProperty longProperty = new SimpleLongProperty(1L);
   ObjectProperty<Long> objectProperty = new SimpleObjectProperty<>(2L);

   // Need to keep the reference as bidirectional binding uses weak references
   LongProperty objectAsLong = LongProperty.longProperty(objectProperty);

   longProperty.bindBidirectional(objectAsLong);

 

Another approach is to convert the LongProperty to ObjectProperty using asObject() method.

Note: null values in the source property will be interpreted as 0L

Parameters:

property - The source Property

Returns:

A LongProperty that wraps the Property

Throws:

NullPointerException - if property is null

JavaFX 8.0

asObject()

asObject

public ObjectProperty<Long> asObject()

Creates an ObjectProperty that bidirectionally bound to this LongProperty. If the value of this LongProperty changes, the value of the ObjectProperty will be updated automatically and vice-versa.

Can be used for binding an ObjectProperty to LongProperty.

   LongProperty longProperty = new SimpleLongProperty(1L);
   ObjectProperty<Long> objectProperty = new SimpleObjectProperty<>(2L);

   objectProperty.bind(longProperty.asObject());
 

Overrides:

asObject in class ReadOnlyLongProperty

Returns:

the new ObjectProperty
