GroovyFX.next

Hello everyone, A question for those of you still using GroovyFX or willing to give it a try: As you may be aware JavaFX8 and JavaFX9 are binary incompatible due to package updates. It's a bit troublesome for library makers to keep a project compatible with JavaFX8 and JavaFX9+ (as a matter of

Java is Still Free

Apologies if you've heard this news item from other sources already but the information contained in the mentioned article is quite important to all JVM related endeavors going forward. Please read on. As you may have heard in past months the JDK now has a 6 months release cadence. Coupled to

Re: Availability of 2.5.0 groovy-all in Maven Central

I believe groovy-all.jar is no more. Instead we get a super POM groovy-all.pom that describes all individual modules. Sent from my primitive Tricorder > On 3 Jun 2018, at 16:10, Mike Thomsen wrote: > > Any release date for when the groovy-all artifact will be accessible from > Maven

Re: Loading groovy as a Jigsaw auto-module

Right. My gut feeling tells me META-INF/services should be used as intended, this would mean breaking compatibility by moving existing files that are not service providers, as noted by Cedric. This change should be made in the 3.x branch and beyond IMHO. But it's also true we don't know the exact

Re: Loading groovy as a Jigsaw auto-module

Yes. But. The current content breaks the expected semantics of the ServiceLoader mechanism. That is, a line in a file such as META-INF/services/com.acme.Foo, is expected to be - a fully classified classname - with no-args constructor - that implements (if the filename denotes an interface) or

Re: [GroovyFX] Hybrid FXML / builder approach

Hi Charles, Yes, it's possible to build a hybrid view with both FXML injected fields and GroovyFX. Have a look at http://griffon-framework.org/tutorials/4_javafx_views.html#_tutorial_4_6 Even though it's not a "pure" GroovyFX example it shows that your goal is attainable. Cheers, Andres

Re: GroovyFx binding to two properties

You must create a composite binding. The standard JavaFX API provides a `javafx.beans.binding.Bindings` class that can be used to create a BooleanBinding out of a group of ObservableValues. There's also EasyBind (my personal favorite) https://github.com/TomasMikula/EasyBind You may create a

Re: GroovyFX - InternalFrame like window

Hi there, This is the correct place to ask GroovyFX questions. Short answer: no, it does not support InternalFrame out of the box because the standard JavaFX API does not provide such widget. However if there were to be a 3rd party JavaFX library that provides such widget then it would be

Re: [GroovyFX] using ColorPicker

Hmm looks like we missed `ColorPicker` in the 8.0.0 release. If you could create an issue at https://github.com/groovyfx-project/groovyfx/issues In the meantime, you can manually register a factory that can handle a `colorPicker` node, like this SceneGraphBuilder sgb = new

Re: About Gradle, Kotlin and Inner Fear

Or you know, use XML as a DSL and put the Maven vs. Gradle discussion to rest for good. (wink) Joking aside, I'm aware that the tooling API has been improved a lot in past released; how much remains to be seen, and how much of that API relies on Groovy specific classes too. Cheers, Andres
