nvm intellij was hicking up

I reread the whole chapter again and I am not going to change that code there as it is a progression towards viewModel

@ron I remember.. but maybe it's just too confusing, and that we should just focus on the best practice right away?

well once I took the time to reread it, the build up makes sense

Great! I think my thinking was to provide some background for why we recommend the approach prescribed in that chapter, and give a little glimpse into the underlying workings of the framework.

yes

@ron how many commits were you behind in your fork?

I have no clue, new computer I used cloned the edvin repo

I might just throw away my repo and fork it again

you dont want to know the shit I had getting this new computer working

apperently 2400Mhz DDR4 cannot be run at 2400Mhz

How do I package my TornadoFX app into a .jar for distribution? I'm building the artifact in IntelliJ, but when I run it I get

Error: Could not find or load main class

While it works fine in non-TornadoFX programs

I guess it has something to do with there being no

main()

function in JavaFX?

I have a main function...

@jchildress uploaded a file: Untitled

I don't, I could add it I guess, but it doesn't seem like the proper way.

not sure of any other way... interested to hear....

There is no main to define

Agree... not sure though... I've always used main...

Worked after creating a main method, which allowed to me to use the normal Jar packaging option instead of the JavaFX packaging in IntelliJ. I think something is wrong with the JavaFX one.

@edvin, @carlw your comments on the scheduled service builder please? Should I go ahead with a pull request?

@anidotnet Will catch up in an hour 🙂

Sure

@anidotnet I have mixed feelings about introducing new task concepts right now, considering the next logical step will be introduction of coroutines. Why don't you use this pattern in your app to see how it works for you, and then we'll talk about integrating it in the JDK9 branch after we have ported, and also introduced coroutines?

ok.. sounds good

@edvin are you going to change the versioning to 1.8 or 2.0 when you move to java9?

@ron I was 1.9.0, not decided yet 🙂

then 1.7 should actually be 1.8 😁
