      • addListener

        public void addListener​(InvalidationListener listener)
        Description copied from interface: Observable
        Adds an InvalidationListener which will be notified whenever the Observable becomes invalid. If the same listener is added more than once, then it will be notified more than once. That is, no check is made to ensure uniqueness.

        Note that the same actual InvalidationListener instance may be safely registered for different Observables.

        The Observable stores a strong reference to the listener which will prevent the listener from being garbage collected and may result in a memory leak. It is recommended to either unregister a listener by calling removeListener after use or to use an instance of WeakInvalidationListener avoid this situation.

        Specified by:
        addListener in interface Observable
        Parameters:
        listener - The listener to register
        See Also:
        Observable.removeListener(InvalidationListener)
      • removeListener

        public void removeListener​(InvalidationListener listener)
        Description copied from interface: Observable
        Removes the given listener from the list of listeners, that are notified whenever the value of the Observable becomes invalid.

        If the given listener has not been previously registered (i.e. it was never added) then this method call is a no-op. If it had been previously added then it will be removed. If it had been added more than once, then only the first occurrence will be removed.

        Specified by:
        removeListener in interface Observable
        Parameters:
        listener - The listener to remove
        See Also:
        Observable.addListener(InvalidationListener)
      • addListener

        public void addListener​(ChangeListener<? super Boolean> listener)
        Description copied from interface: ObservableValue
        Adds a ChangeListener which will be notified whenever the value of the ObservableValue changes. If the same listener is added more than once, then it will be notified more than once. That is, no check is made to ensure uniqueness.

        Note that the same actual ChangeListener instance may be safely registered for different ObservableValues.

        The ObservableValue stores a strong reference to the listener which will prevent the listener from being garbage collected and may result in a memory leak. It is recommended to either unregister a listener by calling removeListener after use or to use an instance of WeakChangeListener avoid this situation.

        Specified by:
        addListener in interface ObservableValue<Boolean>
        Parameters:
        listener - The listener to register
        See Also:
        ObservableValue.removeListener(ChangeListener)
      • removeListener

        public void removeListener​(ChangeListener<? super Boolean> listener)
        Description copied from interface: ObservableValue
        Removes the given listener from the list of listeners that are notified whenever the value of the ObservableValue changes.

        If the given listener has not been previously registered (i.e. it was never added) then this method call is a no-op. If it had been previously added then it will be removed. If it had been added more than once, then only the first occurrence will be removed.

        Specified by:
        removeListener in interface ObservableValue<Boolean>
        Parameters:
        listener - The listener to remove
        See Also:
        ObservableValue.addListener(ChangeListener)
      • bind

        protected final void bind​(Observable... dependencies)
        Start observing the dependencies for changes. If the value of one of the dependencies changes, the binding is marked as invalid.
        Parameters:
        dependencies - the dependencies to observe
      • unbind

        protected final void unbind​(Observable... dependencies)
        Stop observing the dependencies for changes.
        Parameters:
        dependencies - the dependencies to stop observing
      • dispose

        public void dispose()
        A default implementation of dispose() that is empty.
        Specified by:
        dispose in interface Binding<Boolean>
      • get

        public final boolean get()
        Returns the result of computeValue(). The method computeValue() is only called if the binding is invalid. The result is cached and returned if the binding did not become invalid since the last call of get().
        Specified by:
        get in interface ObservableBooleanValue
        Returns:
        the current value
      • onInvalidating

        protected void onInvalidating()
        The method onInvalidating() can be overridden by extending classes to react, if this binding becomes invalid. The default implementation is empty.
      • invalidate

        public final void invalidate()
        Description copied from interface: Binding
        Mark a binding as invalid. This forces the recalculation of the value of the Binding next time it is request.
        Specified by:
        invalidate in interface Binding<Boolean>
      • isValid

        public final boolean isValid()
        Description copied from interface: Binding
        Checks if a binding is valid.
        Specified by:
        isValid in interface Binding<Boolean>
        Returns:
        true if the Binding is valid, false otherwise
      • computeValue

        protected abstract boolean computeValue()
        Calculates the current value of this binding.

        Classes extending BooleanBinding have to provide an implementation of computeValue.

        Returns:
        the current value
      • toString

        public String toString()
        Returns a string representation of this BooleanBinding object.
        Overrides:
        toString in class Object
        Returns:
        a string representation of this BooleanBinding object.
