https://github.com/JetBrains/kotlin/blob/master/spec-docs/flexible-java-types.md and here they're called flexible 🤔

seems like both terms are applicable

Indeed, quite interesting

i can see the reason for both names, but i think platform is a better name. Because we can't make them ourselves, they only exist because of platform interop. Flexible type gives me the feeling that i should be able to set something to be flexible.

It does sound a bit like the

dynamic

type from JS interop.

I'm using Workspace... If I don't want the Workspace title property bound to the UIComponent that is opened, is there a way to turn it off? I want to set a title for the Workspace and leave it no matter which UIComponent is opened...

One other random question on using the Workspace... If I need an application that has multiple windows/screens open is the Workspace fine for that? I can't tell if it's best suited for single "screen" applications or if that really isn't a "limitation". thanks

I am using Tab.setOnClosed to set a handler which is supposed to be called, when a Tab is closed. It does work, wehn I close the tab in the tabpane with the x-icon. but it does not work, when I close it programmatically with the .close method. why is that?

Ah, I think I spotted the reason in TabPane.kt, Line 66 I have added a version that should fix this - or at make it optional to fire the event, such that the user is aware of that

is there a callback on the parent like

onChildRemoved

that you can hook into ?

@Nikky

getChildren()

is an

ObservableList

. You can attach a

ListChangeListener

to it and then look for

change.wasRemoved()

Does anybody have an example they use as a custom

CoroutineScope

for their controllers?

In the simplest case, if I had a controller that implements

Closable

, how can I tie the

close()

call into coroutine lifecycles? --Similarly, how best to tie a failed coroutine into the controllers lifecycle?

Hello, i have some trouble with config consistent. When i'm login i write into my config file

with(config) {
            set("token", account.token)
            set("point_name", account.pointName)
            save()
        }

and all ok, but when i'm press logout button with this code

with(config) {
            remove("token")
            remove("point_name")
            save()
        }

and then login again i found that in my config store old data (account instance is updating)

here my code example

logout fun work done, all needed data is deleted

@edvin In the github issue with slow response #852, why did you say there were a lot of controls associated with BIG VIEW? I only count about 12 from the video

@carlw Did you see the size of the scroll bar? AFAIK it indicates that there is a large amount of stuff off screen

I see it now. How many controls were on there? Are they all Buttons?

@carlw You couldn't see... The scroll bar looked pretty crazy...

I didn’t notice it as a scroll bar ☺️

great start to a saturday...import java.awt.*; 🙀

I get an StackOverflowError:

internal class BindingsTest {
  @Test
  internal fun testBindings() {
    val fooProperty: IntegerProperty = SimpleIntegerProperty(7)

    val periodProperty: ReadOnlyObjectProperty<Int> = SimpleObjectProperty<Int>()
      .apply {
        bind(objectBinding(fooProperty) {
          fooProperty.get()
        })
      }

    println("Result ${periodProperty.get()}")
  }
}

What am I doing wrong? Any ideas/hints?

Ok, calling it with "also" works. I think that is the first time I habe been bitten by extension methods...

Combobox issue Using Java 8's Optional as a workaround. null, A, B, C

As I read further about this thread, I didn't realize how old this question was. 🧐😂 . I did run the example in Java 8 update 191 and Java 9 & Java 10 and it worked fine (no exception was thrown). Hope you are able to resolve your issue. I miss so much during the work week.😫 Sometimes I get FOMO (fear of missing out)

IS there an easy way to integrate coroutines and channels

Netty channels?
