@redrield I guess the co routine is blocking the JVM perhaps. Does it close correctly if you remove the

runBlocking

wrapper?

@kristofdho For the JavaFX tasks, it's up to the author to implement the cancel. Take a look at the javadocs of the Task class. For example, if you have a sequence of three RESTful web service calls in the body of a Task, you should check the isCancelled flag in the overridden call() method.

I'll be on windows today using CorelDRAW and Sage50 (formerly Peachtree). I spend about 20% of my time on Windows "cross training" and supporting a windows dev environment for a customer. It helps to test javafx code on more than one platform too. I've seen javafx discrepancies across platforms before.

On GitBook, you will need to "Edit" the book to switch branches.

Hey guys! This is the last week before JavaOne, so I won't be around much. Will try to catch up when I can, but hopefully you guys can help me pick up the slack this week 🙂

I answered this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46366899/how-to-use-preferences-in-tornadofx/46408372#46408372

It turned out even better than I had hoped 🙂

New SO question: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46426488/how-to-display-data-using-tornadofx-treeview

Hey @edvin @carlw I think we should have the following modules: - tornadofx-controls (contains all custom controls) - tornadofx-core - tornadofx-workspace (workspace implementation) - tornadofx-osgi - tornadofx-rest (I would place the rest controller in a separate module since it is more of a add on implemented with the controller class from tornadofx) We should also create a organisation tornadofx on github so we can group further projects under one umbrella, for example (tornadofx-controlsfx a lib which would add builder support for all the controlsfx controls)?

@edvin Just listend to the kotlin podcast ... good job 😉 🎉

@pike That looks correct, provided that you need a member field for the button. You seldom do in my experience 🙂

We will see 😉 Where is your thesis about?

Now that we have a wiki-like structure in part 2 of the guide - feel free to convert stuff from the Wiki, guys! It's not much work left before we can remove the wiki and just link to the guide 🙂

@Ruckus did you see the java example I posted a few messages back?

@Ruckus Thanks once again for an incredibly thorough answer. Getting this info searchable is a huge help for others!

@Ruckus Hat's off to you for all the effort you put in today, especially on issue 477. 🎉 👏

hello. Quick question. Is possible to use css for styling instead code?

Noticing some javafx luminaries in the audience

@Ruckus you are a very gracious man.

@nimakro hopefully you felt a little excitement. It went very smoothly and everyone was fully engaged

The compiler complains about accidental override and platform declaration clash. If anybody has time to help me look at this I would be very grateful 🙂

It looks like VirtualFlow is completely locked down in Java 9. It's public and not final, but everything interesting is private. That sucks big time. I might need to implement a similar solution from scratch to get DataGrid up and running. Should also investigate how this is done in similar Java 9 compatible components, I suspect there are some in ControlsFX.

@nimakro Did it work? I think it used to be opened in a separate scope by default, but there were issues. Still kind of jet lagged, my head doesn't work correctly yet 🙂

I think we added a

close()

function to Tab.

On the phone, brb

I gotta go, the news paper is coming soon to interview my about the TornadoKeyboard 🙂 Back in a bit!

@pike do you have Platform.setImplicitExit() set to false anywhere? Maybe you can put that call in in case something in the framework has made it. It should be true which is the default.

@pike Still, post your code 🙂

I have an eclipse plain javafx project which depends on a kotlin (tornadofx) project (separate maven builds). Should I be able to debug from eclipse (i.e. step into the kotlin code)? I've installed the Kotlin eclipse plugin.

wouldn’t drawing a board in a builder be a lot easier though?
