JavaFX open new window issue with fxml

JavaFX open new window issue with fxml - java

I'm developing a password manager program. When opening a new window in this program it throws an exception on the addEntry() mouse click event. I have a Main class that opens the main window (with sample.fxml) and a Controller class that manages to open the new window (with addNewEntryDialog.fxml). Here's my code:
Main.java
package sample;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.stage.Modality;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import java.io.IOException;
public class Main extends Application {
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception{
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("/sample.fxml"));
primaryStage.setTitle("Password Manager");
primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(root, 800, 600));
primaryStage.show();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
Controller.java
package sample;

Look at your addEntryDialog.fxml file. There is definition of this view's controller:
<Pane ... fx:controller="sample.Controller>
JavaFX loads the view, looks for the controller and creates it. (At this moment another sample.Controller object is instantiated). After creating it sees that this controller implements Initializable interface, so it executes initialize method which in turn calls fillTable method and finally the statement siteColumn.setCellValueFactory(..) is reached. The problem is that there's no siteColumn for addEntryDialog.fxml view - it has not been binded since there's no element on view with that id.
Solution is to create proper controller for addEntryView.fxml and call it in xml fx:controller attribute.

Exception running application application.TipCalculator

So I was given code from the textbook to use in eclipse and it actually won't run the base code even though I did everything the professor told me to do. Im getting an error exception running application application.TipCalculator and I have no idea what to do. First code snippet is my main, second is my controller, third is my xml file.

Exception running application application.TipCalculator
Please help.

firstly you need to change the controller which you added in application package:
note: the / make it to read from the src folder because they are not in the same package.
TipController
change this:
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("TipCalculator.fxml"));
to
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("/TipCalculator.fxml"));
then change the fxml file where you specified the path of controller:
TipCalculator.fxml

Move cards inside vbox javafx?

I have a vbox which contains a list of cards(Anchor panes). I am trying to make each card draggable so that I can change the order of the list whenever I want. I am using a scene builder.
However, I keep getting the following message after I drag and attempt to drop.
Java Messsge:class javafx.scene.layout.VBox cannot be cast to class javafx.scene.layout.AnchorPane(javafx.scene.layout.VBox and javafx.scene.layout.AnchorPane are in module javafx.graphics of loader 'app')
My code:
minimal code provided only contains two cards, one of which is being used only in my code.
Edit: I no longer get the error message however, I am not getting my desired result as the cards are not changing positions

“javafx.fxml.LoadException” error when loading fxml

For a project I need to create a GUI using JavaFX. So with a tutorial of Scene Builder/JavaFX that I followed very closely I created a very basic GUI. But the load doesn't seem to work and throws an LoadException. I've seem a few similar problems online, but none of their answers seemed to fix mine. I have done as much googleFoo as I can trying similar guides and tutorials, but it just won't load.
Here is main:
package stacksim;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class stacksim extends Application {
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
#Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception {
try {
// Read file fxml and draw interface.
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass()
.getResource("stacksim.fxml"));
primaryStage.setTitle("Stack Simulation");
primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(root));
primaryStage.show();
} catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}

Please kindly help me solve this problems and explain me why this doesn't work. Thank you for you suggestions.

There are two instances of AlertController: the one you create in MainController with
AlertController alertController = new AlertController();
and the one that is created by the FXMLLoader when you load Alert.fxml in displayAlert().
The #FXML-annotated fields are initialized by the FXMLLoader on the instance it creates. However, you are calling setAlertLabel(...) on an instance of AlertController that was not created by the FXMLLoader. So when you call
alertController.setAlertLabel("Hello from MainController!");
the alertLabel belonging to alertController has not been initialized, and you get a null pointer exception.
Simple Solution
The easiest fix is to load Alert.fxml in MainController, and retrieve the correct controller instance:
public class MainController {
#FXML
public Label mainLabel;
#FXML
public TextField mainTextField;
#FXML
public Button mainButton;
#FXML
public void onMainButtonClicked() {
FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("../view/Alert.fxml"));
Parent root = loader.load();
AlertController alertController = loader.getController();
alertController.setAlertLabel("Hello from MainController!");
Scene scene = new Scene(root);
window.setScene(scene);
window.setTitle("Alert");
window.show();
}
}
and remove the displayAlert() method from AlertController.
Custom Component Solution
An alternative, which is structurally a bit closer to your original, is to replace the AlertController with a custom component.
Alert.fxml (note the change to the root element, and that fx:controller has been removed):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.Button?>
<?import javafx.scene.control.Label?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.AnchorPane?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.HBox?>
<?import javafx.scene.layout.VBox?>
<fx:root type="AnchorPane" maxHeight="-Infinity" maxWidth="-Infinity" minHeight="-Infinity" minWidth="-Infinity" prefHeight="210.0" prefWidth="380.0" xmlns="http://javafx.com/javafx/8.0.60" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1" >
<children>
<VBox prefHeight="210.0" prefWidth="380.0" AnchorPane.bottomAnchor="0.0" AnchorPane.leftAnchor="0.0" AnchorPane.rightAnchor="0.0" AnchorPane.topAnchor="0.0">
<children>
<HBox alignment="BOTTOM_CENTER" prefHeight="100.0" prefWidth="200.0">
<children>
<Label fx:id="alertLabel" text="Alert Message" />
</children>
</HBox>
<HBox alignment="CENTER" prefHeight="100.0" prefWidth="200.0">
<children>
<Button fx:id="alertButton" mnemonicParsing="false" onAction="#onAlertButtonClicked" text="Close" />
</children>
</HBox>
</children>
</VBox>
</children>
</fx:root>
AlertController.java:
package controller;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.control.Label;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import java.io.IOException;
public class AlertController extends AnchorPane {
Stage window;
#FXML
public Label alertLabel;
#FXML
Button alertButton;
public AlertController() {
window = new Stage();
try {
FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("../view/Alert.fxml"));
loader.setController(this);
loader.setRoot(this);
loader.load();
Scene scene = new Scene(this);
window.setScene(scene);
window.setTitle("Alert");
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
public void displayAlert() {
window.show();
}
public void setAlertLabel(String str) {
alertLabel.setText(str);
}
#FXML
public void onAlertButtonClicked() {
window.close();
}
}
and now your main controller can look like this:
package controller;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.control.Label;
import javafx.scene.control.TextField;
public class MainController {
AlertController alertController = new AlertController();
#FXML
public Label mainLabel;
#FXML
public TextField mainTextField;
#FXML
public Button mainButton;
#FXML
public void onMainButtonClicked() {
alertController.displayAlert();
alertController.setAlertLabel("Hello from MainController!");
}
}

javafx.fxml.LoadException when I try to change scene by selecting an Item

I am creating a bidding system where a scene has the list of items available for auction. when the user clicks on the item, the scene should change to another anchorpane where all the details related to the item will displayed. When I click on the item I get this exception:
