Ok, I'm starting to lose my mind on this one. I have a tableview where there are 3 combobox table cells. The first is a box where a user can select a job, the job selected changes the next combobox's options (job category). The job category selection changes the options in the labor box. So the flow down is:
job > job category > labor.
I have a very peculiar problem. When editing the table, you can click on any box to get a corresponding list of the available selections based on the other fields. This works fine. Where it blows up is when a selection ISN'T made. To make things more interesting, it only effects the job and job category comboboxes the labor box works flawlessly.
symptom:
-- job category selection disappears when edit is canceled via esc or focus lost
-- selection chosen in the job category field is placed into the job field when editing is canceled via esc or upon loss of focus
Here's the steps to recreate the symptoms:
1) click on job category box and enable editing mode
2) make a new selection from the drop down list
new selection made img
3) click on the job box and enable editing
4) click off the job box and cancel editing by click on job category or labor box in the same row
5) enable job category editing and then cancel job category edit by clicking on either labor / labor boxes or using esc
lose the job category / job selections img
here is the code to initialize the graphic when it comes up:
public void initialize(URL location, ResourceBundle resources) {
/* this is here because the screen handler will load up the Main screen in the

I know there are probably better ways to do things here. I'm still new to JAVA and coding. I work at a small company so I'm the only coder they employee. Unfortunately this limits me to what I can teach myself, so there are probably some more efficient ways to accomplish the same mission here. Anyway, if anyone could help me figure out what is going on, it would be appreciated.
The answer to this problem is actually found in the SetOnEdit portion of the jobcatCol.
upon closer inspection and a lot of debugging, I found that this line
t.getRowValue().setJob(ssp);
is actually supposed to be
t.getRowValue().setJobCat(ssp);
I also chose to forego the ComboBoxTableCell API and write my own combobox implementations for each cell. It's a very basic version found here:
public class JobComboBoxCell extends TableCell<Model_Time, String>
{
private ComboBox<String> comboBox;
private Helper_UserSpecificTimDat cmbxPopulator = new Helper_UserSpecificTimDat();
public JobComboBoxCell(Helper_UserSpecificTimDat cmbxPopulator)
{
comboBox = new ComboBox<>();
this.cmbxPopulator = cmbxPopulator;
}
#Override
public void startEdit()
{
if ( !isEmpty() )
{
super.startEdit();
comboBox.setItems( cmbxPopulator.getJobComboBox() );
comboBox.getSelectionModel().select( this.getItem() );
comboBox.focusedProperty().addListener( new ChangeListener<Boolean>()
{
#Override
public void changed( ObservableValue<? extends Boolean> observable, Boolean oldValue, Boolean newValue )
{
if ( !newValue )
{
commitEdit( comboBox.getSelectionModel().getSelectedItem() );
}
}
} );
setText( null );
setGraphic( comboBox );
}
}
#Override
public void cancelEdit()
{
super.cancelEdit();
setText( ( String ) this.getItem() );
setGraphic( null );
}
#Override
public void updateItem( String item, boolean empty )
{
super.updateItem( item, empty );
if ( empty )
{
setText( null );
setGraphic( null );
}
else
{
if ( isEditing() )
{
setText( null );
setGraphic( comboBox );
}
else
{
setText( this.getItem() );
setGraphic( null );
}
}
}
}
This code was courtesy of Uluk Biy's response in thread:Populate combo box list dynamically for each row in javaFx table view
I adapted his code a little bit to specifically fit my needs. This solved a problem with values disappearing from the job category field and from data transferring from the job category field to the Job field.
This was one of the harder pieces of code I've had to troubleshoot. It was a combination of how the ComboBoxTableCell operates, the dynamic data of my comboboxes, and a slip in the which setter I was calling. It was about a perfect storm of flubs that the program saw no exceptions for as a result.
Thank you for the help

In app I'm bulding I used data model presented by James_D here:
Applying MVC With JavaFx
I just can find a way to bind labels text to property of object held in DataModel
Data is structured like this:
model class Student
//partial class
public class Student {
private final StringProperty displayName = new SimpleStringProperty();
public final StringProperty displayNameProperty(){
return this.displayName;
}
public Student(){
}
public final String getDisplayName() {
return this.displayNameProperty().get();
}
public final void setDisplayName(String displayName) {
this.displayNameProperty().set(displayName);
}
}
Student instaces are held by StudentDataModel class
public class StudentDataModel {
// complete student list
private final ObservableList<Student> studentList = FXCollections.observableArrayList();
private final ObjectProperty<Student> selectedStudent = new SimpleObjectProperty<>(new Student());
public final Student getSelectedStudent() {
return selectedStudent.get();
}
public final ObjectProperty<Student> selectedStudentProperty() {
return selectedStudent;
}
public final void setSelectedStudent(Student student) {
selectedStudent.set(student);
}
}
StudentList is displayed by Table View, there is change listener that sets selectedStudent like this:
public class TableViewController {
public void initModel(StudentDataModel studentDM) {
// ensure model is set once
if (this.studentDM != null) {
throw new IllegalStateException("StudentDataModel can only be initialized once");
}
this.studentDM = studentDM;
tableView.getSelectionModel().selectedItemProperty().addListener((obs, oldSelection, newSelection) -> {
if (newSelection != null) {
studentDM.setSelectedStudent(newSelection);
}
});
}}
There is another controller ActionsBarController that has label to display selected student (this seems redundant, but there is option for selecting multiple objects to perform bulk operations).
StudentDataModel is initialized properly (I can see it in debuger) but below doesn't do anything:
chosenStudentLabel.textProperty().bind(studentDM.getSelectedStudent().displayNameProperty());
//this shows class name with instance number changing correctly
chosenStudentLabel.textProperty().bind(studentDM.selectedStudentProperty().asString());
I could inject ActionsBarController to TableViewController and change label text from change Listener there, but this seems counter productive with data model.
What am I doing wrong?
Your code doesn't work, because you call (and evaluate) getSelectedStudent() at the time the binding is created (i.e. when you initialize the model). As a consequence, you only bind to the displayName property of the student that is selected at that time. (If nothing is selected, you'll get a NullPointerException.) The binding will only change if that initially-selected student's display name changes; it won't change if the selection changes.
You need a binding that unbinds from the old selected student's display name, and binds to the new selected student's display name, when the selected student changes. One way to do this is:
chosenStudentLabel.textProperty().bind(new StringBinding() {
{
studentDM.selectedStudentProperty().addListener((obs, oldStudent, newStudent) -> {
if (oldStudent != null) {
unbind(oldStudent.displayNameProperty());
}
if (newStudent != null) {
bind(newStudent.displayNameProperty());
}
invalidate();
});
}
#Override
protected String computeValue() {
if (studentDM.getSelectedStudent() == null) {
return "" ;
}
return studentDM.getSelectedStudent().getDisplayName();
}
});
Note that there is also a "built-in" way to do this, but it's a bit unsatisfactory (in my opinion) for a couple of reasons. Firstly, it relies on specifying the name of the "nested property" as a String, using reflection to access it. This is undesirable because it has no way to check the property exists at compile time, it requires opening the module for access, and it is less good performance-wise. Secondly, it gives spurious warnings if one of the properties in the "chain" is null (e.g. in this case if the selected student is null, which is will be initially), even though this is a supported case according to the documentation. However, it is significantly less code:
chosenStudentLabel.textProperty().bind(
Bindings.selectString(studentDM.selectedStudentProperty(), "displayName")
);
I have created a two column editable TableView which the user can edit and change the data thats inside each cell. Now my question is, once the user has changed some data around in each cell, how do I then save this data or print it out in a way to add to an SQL query like this example below
INSERT INTO table_name
VALUES (Value from table,Value from table,Value from table,...);
//Editable cell
PriceColumn.setCellFactory(TextFieldTableCell.forTableColumn());
PriceColumn.setOnEditCommit(
new EventHandler<CellEditEvent<NewCustomerList, String>>() {
#Override
public void handle(CellEditEvent<NewCustomerList, String> t) {
((NewCustomerList) t.getTableView().getItems().get(
t.getTablePosition().getRow())).setPrice(t.getNewValue());
}
}
);
You could do this by getting the required values and then passing them onto the DAO class to execute the query on the DB. Example follows-
PriceColumn.setOnEditCommit(
new EventHandler<CellEditEvent<NewCustomerList, String>>() {
#Override
public void handle(CellEditEvent<NewCustomerList, String> t) {
((NewCustomerList) t.getTableView().getItems().get(t.getTablePosition().getRow())).setPrice(t.getNewValue());
String newPrice = t.getNewValue();
String uniqueIdentifier = t.getRowValue().getUniqueIdentifier(); //Unique identfier is something that uniquely identify the row. It could be the name of the object that we are pricing here.
daoObj.updatePrice(newPrice, uniqueIdentifier); //Call DAO now
}
}
);
And somewhere in the deep dark jungles of DAO class,
private final String updateQuery = "UPDATE <TABLE_NAME> SET <PRICE_COLUMN> = ? WHERE <UNIQUE_COLUMN> = ?"; //If you require multiple columns to get a unique row, add them in the where clause as well.
public void updatePrice(String newPrice, String uniqueIdentifier) {
PreparedStatement ps = con.prepareStatement(updateQuery); //con is the connection object
ps.setString(1,uniqIdentifier); //if a string
ps.setString(2,newPrice); //if a string
ps.executeQuery();
}
If this is not what you were expecting, then can you please clarify your requirement?
I currently have two tableviews in one screen, which results in both TableViews have rows which the user can select.
Now I want only one row to be selected at the same time (doesn't matter which TableView it is selected from). I was thinking about some kind of listener which deselects the other row when a row is selected. This is my initial setup:
Step 1
Search for a way to bind a method to the selection of a row (there is not something like tableview.setOnRowSelected(method))
Step 2
Create the method which acts like a kind of listener: when a row is selected, deselect the other row (I know how to do this part)
Class1 selectedObject1 = (Class1)tableview1.getSelectionModel().getSelectedItem();
Class2 selectedObject2 = (Class2)tableview2.getSelectionModel().getSelectedItem();
if(selectedObject1 != null && selectedObject2 != null) {
tableview1.getSelectionModel().clearSelection();
}
So, step one is the problem. I was thinking of an observable list on which a listener can be created, and then add the selected row to the list. When this happens, the listener can call the method.
Anyone any clue how to make this?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
The selectedItem in the selection model is an observable property, so you should be able to achieve this with:
tableview1.getSelectionModel().selectedItemProperty().addListener((obs, oldSelection, newSelection) -> {
if (newSelection != null) {
tableview2.getSelectionModel().clearSelection();
}
});
tableview2.getSelectionModel().selectedItemProperty().addListener((obs, oldSelection, newSelection) -> {
if (newSelection != null) {
tableview1.getSelectionModel().clearSelection();
}
});
My solution would be creating custom cell factory for table and set it for each table columns.
Callback<TableColumn<..., ...>, TableCell<..., ...>> value = param -> {
TextFieldTableCell cell = new TextFieldTableCell<>();
cell.addEventFilter(MouseEvent.MOUSE_CLICKED, event -> {
//your code
}
);
return cell;
};
packageName.setCellFactory(value);
table1.column1.setCellFactory();
table2.column1.setCellFactory();
...
I use it for deleting the chosen row.
public void ButtonClicked()
{
ObservableList<Names> row , allRows;
allRows = table.getItems();
row = table.getSelectionModel().getSelectedItems();
row.forEach(allRows::remove);
}
This question helped me but during experiment in javafx and jfoenix this also works for me.
deleteSingle.addEventHandler(MouseEvent.MOUSE_CLICKED, (e) -> {
StringProperty selectedItem = table.getSelectionModel().getSelectedItem().getValue().link1;
System.out.println("That is selected item : "+selectedItem);
if (selectedItem.equals(null)) {
System.out.println(" No item selected");
} else {
System.out.println("Index to be deleted:" + selectedItem.getValue());
//Here was my database data retrieving and selectd
// item deleted and then table refresh
table.refresh();
return;
}
});
In case you need not only the row, but the x|y position of the table cell, do this:
table.getFocusModel().focusedCellProperty().addListener(
new ChangeListener<TablePosition>() {
#Override
public void changed(ObservableValue<? extends TablePosition> observable,
TablePosition oldPos, TablePosition pos) {
int row = pos.getRow();
int column = pos.getColumn();
String selectedValue = "";
if (table.getItems().size() > row
&& table.getItems().get(row).size() > column) {
selectedValue = table.getItems().get(row).get(column);
}
label.setText(selectedValue);
}
});
In this example, I am using a "classic" TableView with List<String> as column model. And, of course, that label is just an example from my code.
I have TableView with number of columns, I have set onEditCommit method on the first column to get the value inserted and then retrieve data from database based on that value and set the retrieved data in other columns. the table couldn't update it's content.
accountNoCol.setOnEditCommit(new EventHandler<CellEditEvent<Bond, String>>() {
#Override
public void handle(CellEditEvent<Bond, String> event) {
String newValue = event.getNewValue();
Bond bond = event.getRowValue();
int selectedRow = event.getTablePosition().getRow();
if (isInteger(newValue)) {
((Bond) event.getTableView().getItems().get(
event.getTablePosition().getRow())).setAccountNo(newValue);
if (isDebtAccount(newValue)) {
String accountName = getDebtAccountName(newValue);
String coinName = getCoinName(newValue);
float coinExchange = getCoinExchange(newValue);
bond.setAccountName(accountName);
bond.setCoinName(coinName);
bond.setCoinExchange(coinExchange);
bondTable.getSelectionModel().select(selectedRow, statementCol);
} else if (isNonDebtAccount(newValue)) {
String accountName = getNonDebtAccountName(newValue);
bond.setAccountName(accountName);
bond.setCoinName(getDefaultCoinName());

}
else {
System.out.println("wrong acount name");
// show accounts table - i guess
}

I tried to use this next line but the table get crashed after adding new rows
bondData.set(selectedRow,Bond);
Solved. The problem was the table get crashed when am trying to open new stage from a listener on a tablecolumn. so on listener and before fire my action which is opening new stage i set the tablecolumn uneditable.
I have a form that has 4 TextFields which I'm trying to track with an ObservableList that has 5 columns. The TableView has an extra column to hold a calculated value (the 5th column in my ObservableList).
The data is dumping fine from the 4 TextFields, but the calculated column comes out blank. I assume this is a problem with my getters and setters, because the value is calculated before I pass it to my data model, AND I just tested the data model, and it is GETTING the value (passed as a parameter).
To not put extraneous code here, I think these are the relevant parts:
// This is (part of) my data model
public static class ItemSale {
private ItemSale (Double barC, String itemm, Double pricee,
Integer quant, Double totsP) {
this.barCode = new SimpleDoubleProperty(barC);
this.item = new SimpleStringProperty(itemm);
this.price = new SimpleDoubleProperty(pricee);
this.quantity = new SimpleIntegerProperty(quant);
this.rowPrice = new SimpleDoubleProperty(totsP);
System.out.println(totsP); // this (also) prints the correct value to the screen
// price * quantity = rowPrice, the calculated value that doesn't show up later
// getter & setter for quantity (works, is a textfield in my form)
public SimpleIntegerProperty getQuantity() {
return quantity;
}
public void setQuantity(Integer quant) {
quantity.set(quant);
}
// getter & setter for rowPrice (doesn't work, is calculated, see below)
public SimpleDoubleProperty getRowPrice(Double totsP) {
return rowPrice;
}
public void setRowPrice(Double totsP) {
rowPrice.set(totsP);
}
// in the Add button action handler, I have this:
Double rowPP;
rowPP = qua * pr; //qua = variable for quantity, pr = variable for price
System.out.println(rowPP); //prints to screen fine
data.add(new ItemSale(
bcode,
item.getText(),
pr,
qua,
rowPP
));
Ooops...got it figured out. I was researching another problem and found the answer on JavaFx - How to display SimpleStringProperty value in TableView and, in going through my code, I noticed I had the getter with parameters. Removed the parameters and BOOM! it worked.
