The reason I called it

cellFragment

is that

Fragment

is an established concept in TornadoFX, so I wanted it to be clear that you use a Fragment as the cell content.

I gotta get to bed, up again in 5.5 hours 🙂 Good night Carl!

ok. good night

I like the name cellFragment

I think it fits good with the rest as well.

The question now is if we should have a CellItemFragment base class and ListCellItemFragment/TableCellItemFragment as well, to give the fragments access to the current table cell?

It's not much code/weight for the framework but would make it very easy to support editing etc from within the fragment.

I used TornadoFX to build a SQL Injection demo application. I'm going to show it to my O'Reilly SQL class tomorrow.

@User uploaded a file: sql_injection_demo.mp4

Cool, @thomasnield - by the way, did I tell you about how I tried to reduce my taxes with SQL Injection? Let me find the link..

Scroll down for English version 🙂

Haha that is awesome! You made the next Bobby DROP TABLE.

Here's a funny one too http://m.imgur.com/RmfbEsZ?r

Fantastic 🙂

OReilly webcast is done! It went awesome : D now I can focus on more leisurely projects like this.

@thomasnield Congratulations!

Thank you! I want to definitely do more of those, but for now I am so glad to be back!

O'Reilly wants to talk again next week about "future ideas". I'm going to pitch Kotlin on a few fronts for both webcasts and books, and I want to package TornadoFX with it. We will see what sticks immediately and what may come as later projects.

That would be pretty cool

It would be a win I think. I work with the "Data" division a lot at O'Reilly. They are pushing data science and machine learning right now, and Apache Spark encourages using Scala. But I think a lot of data science folks will find Kotlin easier to grasp, and maybe even help close the gap between data science and software engineering.

But I think a more universal "Getting Started with Kotlin" book that teaches Kotlin as a "first JVM language" might come first : )

Btw, I open-sourced the SQL injection application on GitHub. Simple app, but another TornadoFX showcase.

Very cool Thomas :))

Hi @edvin can I configure the styling variables in the app.xml file of the fxlauncher with the gradle plugin?

@frosch95 No, I didn't add support for that yet, but now the best approach would be the new ui customization, did you watch that screencast? I will add support for that to the Gradle plugin shortly. I'm having surgery on my knee tomorrow, so I might be out of commission for a few days, but after that I'll have much more time than the last month, so I can definitely add that. The styling you can do in app.xml is so feeble that I don't think you'd be happy with what you can express there anyways.

@edvin - I have a couple of TextArea Fields in a Form. Is it possible to get them to take up all of the available vertical space?

@gtnarg Absolutely. I will try to make a sample app for you tonight 🙂
