    Study Notes

    JavaFX Application Structure

    • JavaFX applications use Application class
    • Application class has start method (for initializing and showing components)
    • Applications must have main method
    • Include imports for javafx.application, javafx.fxml, javafx.scene, javafx.stage

    HelloApplication Class

    • HelloApplication extends Application
    • Includes start method to initialize stage, scene, and load FXML file
    • start method handles exceptions with throws IOException
    • Loads FXML file using FXMLLoader
    • Creates a Scene from the loaded FXML file
    • Sets the scene and title for the Stage
    • Shows the Stage

    Event Handling

    • Separate classes for event handling:
    • The example (EventHandler) handles Action Events and implements Event Handler
    • It overrides the handle method to execute code when an event occurs
      • Example: System.out.println("Test")

    Hello Controller

    • HelloController class imports javafx.scene.control.*
    • helloController has a button and initialisation method
    • Initializes the button by specifying an EventHandler to handle future events

    Example Without Controller

    • Shows creation of an Event Handler to implement event handling without a controller class

    Mouse Event Handling

    • Shows importing javafx.scene.input.MouseEvent and javafx.event.*

    • MouseEvent handler class (MouseEventHandler) implements EventHandler <MouseEvent>

    • The handle method shows how to handle mouse events and print a message.

    Inner Class Event Handling

    • Creating inner classes to handle events:
    • The code shows creating an inner class (Inner Button Event Handler) to handle the button-related event.

    Anonymous Inner Class Example

    • Anonymous inner class example:
      • The event handler is declared directly within the setOnAction method.
    • Sets the title and shows the Stage.

    Lambda Example

    • Creates a Lambda event handler that handles Action Events
    • Example shows using System.out.println to show a specific output.
    • Shows a TextField example, with onMouseEntered and the output ("Hello")
