So to "fix" that, I added an option to the

fxml

delegate so that you can say "Yeah, I put

fx:controller

in there, but please ignore it"

I don't want it to be required to set

fx:controller

. Frankly, there is very little need for specifying it, apart from letting the IDE help you a little with method names in action parameters etc.

It's close to midnight here, gotta get to bed 🙂 Any ideas as to how to solve this without an extra parameter is greatly appreciated! (I know I can do it via a LoaderListener, but then I need to check what happens with that interface in Java9 - pulling the source code now)

From memory I’m fairly sure I did something with that load listener API - pretty sure I made it public

yep, just checked - it’s public now

Thanks @edvin it went well!

@jonathan Oh, that's perfect! Thanks for checking 🙂

@thomasnield: glad to hear it :)

@edvin yes the app from the osgi example throws a exception, something like "you cannot add a view if you are not in Osgi bundle" something like that

the temperature here in the netherlands is absurd high at the moment and I cannot handle 35 degrees at all

@ron That is expected, since the bundle uses OSGi? 🙂

so I am not working a lot

maybe add a comment to it? in the source code

I will, thanks for the tip Ron 🙂

its going to drop tomorrow, back to a decent 25

@jonathan I got it working using the

LoadListener

by implementing

LoadListener#endElement

. If the element is a Node with no parent I assume that the root element attributes are processed. If no controller has been set by then I call

setController

. It shouldn't be a problem if the function is called multiple times, as long as the attributes of the root element are processed by then. Is this too naive?

@edvin I have a version of your osgi artifact where the App actually works as I just bootstrap felix embedded 🙂

Cool! Let me know if something is unclear or could be expressed better etc.

A small bug fixed today: https://github.com/edvin/tornadofx/issues/182

nice catch

the temperature here dropped from 33 to a wonderfull 25, I feel human again

Great Ron. We have a strange autumn going on here as well. Had 26 yesterday, that's just not right!

my roses are blooming for the 6th time this year

not normal

@User uploaded a file:

working from home today

@edvin we need to cleanup

felix-tornadofx-5.4.0.zip

as has a lot of

__MACOSX

files and directories

@ron Yeah, thanks for reporting the issue as well. I will clean it up and create a new one for 1.5.6.

Apparently, it's my birthday tomorrow, so I'll be in Oslo, celebrating my continued ageing. I would like to release 1.5.6 Sunday evening. @Ruckus I don't think we need to stress the property-issue, we can release without it, since it's a pretty minor enhancement anyways. What do you think?

I completely agree
