Class JavaBeanFloatPropertyBuilder

java.lang.Object

javafx.beans.property.adapter.JavaBeanFloatPropertyBuilder

public final class JavaBeanFloatPropertyBuilder
extends Object

A JavaBeanFloatPropertyBuilder can be used to create JavaBeanFloatProperties. To create a JavaBeanFloatProperty one first has to call create() to generate a builder, set the required properties, and then one can call build() to generate the property.

Not all properties of a builder have to specified, there are several combinations possible. As a minimum the name(java.lang.String) of the property and the bean(java.lang.Object) have to be specified. If the names of the getter and setter follow the conventions, this is sufficient. Otherwise it is possible to specify an alternative name for the getter and setter (getter(java.lang.String) and setter(java.lang.String)) or the getter and setter Methods directly (getter(java.lang.reflect.Method) and setter(java.lang.reflect.Method)).

All methods to change properties return a reference to this builder, to enable method chaining.

If you have to generate adapters for the same property of several instances of the same class, you can reuse a JavaBeanFloatPropertyBuilder by switching the Java Bean instance (with bean(java.lang.Object) and calling build().

Constructor Detail

JavaBeanFloatPropertyBuilder

public JavaBeanFloatPropertyBuilder()

Do not use this constructor. It will be deprecated in the next version. Use create() instead.

Method Detail

create

public static JavaBeanFloatPropertyBuilder create()

Creates a new instance of JavaBeanFloatPropertyBuilder.

Returns:

the new JavaBeanFloatPropertyBuilder

build

public JavaBeanFloatProperty build()
                            throws NoSuchMethodException

Generates a new JavaBeanFloatProperty with the current settings.

Returns:

the new JavaBeanFloatProperty

Throws:

NoSuchMethodException - if the settings were not sufficient to find the getter and the setter of the Java Bean property

IllegalArgumentException - if the Java Bean property is not of type float or Float

name

public JavaBeanFloatPropertyBuilder name(String name)

Sets the name of the property.

Parameters:

name - the name of the property

Returns:

a reference to this builder to enable method chaining

bean

public JavaBeanFloatPropertyBuilder bean(Object bean)

Sets the Java Bean instance the adapter should connect to.

Parameters:

bean - the Java Bean instance

Returns:

a reference to this builder to enable method chaining

beanClass

public JavaBeanFloatPropertyBuilder beanClass(Class<?> beanClass)

Sets the Java Bean class in which the getter and setter should be searched. This can be useful if the builder should generate adapters for several Java Beans of different types.

Parameters:

beanClass - the Java Bean class

Returns:

a reference to this builder to enable method chaining

getter

public JavaBeanFloatPropertyBuilder getter(String getter)

Sets an alternative name for the getter. This can be omitted if the name of the getter follows Java Bean naming conventions.

Parameters:

getter - the alternative name of the getter

Returns:

a reference to this builder to enable method chaining

setter

public JavaBeanFloatPropertyBuilder setter(String setter)

Sets an alternative name for the setter. This can be omitted if the name of the setter follows Java Bean naming conventions.

Parameters:

setter - the alternative name of the setter

Returns:

a reference to this builder to enable method chaining

getter

public JavaBeanFloatPropertyBuilder getter(Method getter)

Sets the getter method directly. This can be omitted if the name of the getter follows Java Bean naming conventions.

Parameters:

getter - the getter

Returns:

a reference to this builder to enable method chaining

setter

public JavaBeanFloatPropertyBuilder setter(Method setter)

Sets the setter method directly. This can be omitted if the name of the setter follows Java Bean naming conventions.

Parameters:

setter - the setter

Returns:

a reference to this builder to enable method chaining
