Somehow it needs to get access to the ValidationContext, or you have to specify one. That's the issue.

I have an idea though. I might be able to fix it so that your existing code would work.

i just pushed my wildfly-admin code

i added gradle to the project, created the skeleton app and workspace

added a connection status view on the main view and a connection modal to logon

Sweet! Looking at ways to extract the ViewModel for non-bound properties.

@edvin Should I we add the extension function

dockOnSelect

to the workspace or rather not?

@carlw Nice will check it out as soon I find some time 😉

i have a project that is going to use this right away

@nimakro That makes sense, for sure - please add it! Do you even need the tag for anything now, or could you just set the title instead?

@carlw I think I have something. Will pull your code and check now.

@edvin Oky will do now I don't need the tag anymore I will just set the title

Sweet!

If I have enough time I will write a few lines tomorrow night about the

bindings

stuff and the

listmenu

@carlw You can add the property directly in the builder constructor instead of calling

bind

afterwards 🙂

@nimakro Most grateful if you find the time 🙂

definitely. that was me testing out the bindBidirectional error from the required()

I need to mow the lawn and some other boring stuff.

@carlw I see 🙂

anything else while I'm pushing?

Update version to 1.7.5 perhaps? 🙂

sure. that was just released, right?

Do you see a need for exposing properties as functions, or should we go with the new property syntax? I've ever had the need for it, and it just adds ugly parenthesis everywhere because you need to call functions instead of reference properties.

Yes.

@edvin I think the new property syntax is much nicer 😉

We probably need to go through tfx some time an deprecate the old syntax so it's all the same

val fooProperty = SimpleStringProperty() // Or any other Property var foo by fooProperty

that syntax? ^

@carlw Yes 🙂

@carlw Actually, if you pull 1.7.6-SNAPSHOT, your existing syntax even works with the required validator.
