Comments on: The confusion JavaFX brings http://chaoticjava.com/posts/the-confusion-javafx-brings/ The internet, design patterns, frameworks and Java Sat, 05 Nov 2011 18:39:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Carl http://chaoticjava.com/posts/the-confusion-javafx-brings/comment-page-1/#comment-5282 Carl Mon, 04 Jun 2007 22:52:49 +0000 http://chaoticjava.com/posts/the-confusion-javafx-brings/#comment-5282 >> So, if I have some data model outside JavaFX which I want to bind to graphical elements inside JavaFX, how do I do that? This is the same bummer I encountered. There are bindings to swing classes (or any rt.jar components), so it seems there should be a way... That said, if your application is a front end to an http server (chances are you are), you can use normal http protocols to pass the data back and forth to the server, such as xml. This is an area where Grails/Groovy can shine, because a lot of this is managed for you through controllers and implicit web-tear objects like Session. On the controller side you can work with persistent objects. None of this is unique to Groovy/Grails, of course. You can use Struts or Spring Web MVC, but Grails has a very nice Object-Relational Mapping (GORM) that easily works with Hibernate on the fly. You can then use POJOs at that point.... >> So, if I have some data model outside JavaFX which I want to bind to graphical elements inside JavaFX, how do I do that?

I figured there'd be something there... I guess I should've actually googled it up, but really just wanted to wrap up the post. So, thanks again! Wow thanks!
