Class JavaBeanBooleanPropertyBuilder

java.lang.Object
javafx.beans.property.adapter.JavaBeanBooleanPropertyBuilder

public final class JavaBeanBooleanPropertyBuilder extends Object
A JavaBeanBooleanPropertyBuilder can be used to create JavaBeanBooleanProperties. To create a JavaBeanBooleanProperty 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 JavaBeanBooleanPropertyBuilder by switching the Java Bean instance (with bean(java.lang.Object) and calling build().

    • create

      public static JavaBeanBooleanPropertyBuilder create()
      Creates a new instance of JavaBeanBooleanPropertyBuilder.
      Returns:
      the new JavaBeanBooleanPropertyBuilder
    • build

      Generates a new JavaBeanBooleanProperty with the current settings.
      Returns:
      the new JavaBeanBooleanProperty
      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 boolean or Boolean
    • 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

      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 JavaBeanBooleanPropertyBuilder 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 JavaBeanBooleanPropertyBuilder 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 JavaBeanBooleanPropertyBuilder 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 JavaBeanBooleanPropertyBuilder 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 JavaBeanBooleanPropertyBuilder 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
