I am trying to get my head around the JavaFX stuff…
My program is a WindowBuilder based Gui, and I want a JavaFX graph, and a JavaFX live video-feed displayed in my app.
How do I implement it in my code? I have tried this, but I couldn’t get it runnning.
The data feed isnt the problem. I just need to view it inside my JFrame as small squares…
Confused now 🙁
Here is my code: (I am sorry that it is a tad long, but I blame the examplecode from JavaFX :p
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JTextField;
import javax.swing.UIManager;
import java.awt.Canvas;
import java.awt.SystemColor;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.BufferedWriter;
import javax.swing.UIManager.*;
/**
* @author
*
*/
public class MyClientApp extends JFrame {
/**
*
*/
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
protected static final String BufferedWriter = null;
JFrame frame;
private JTextField textFieldUsername;
/**
* Create the application.
*/
public MyClientApp(BufferedWriter serverDataOut, BufferedReader serverDataIn) {
initialize();
}
/**
* Initialize the contents of the frame.
*
* @param serverDataOut
*
*/
private void initialize() {
try {
for (LookAndFeelInfo info : UIManager.getInstalledLookAndFeels()) {
if ("Nimbus".equals(info.getName())) {
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(info.getClassName());
break;
}
}
} catch (Exception e) {
// Nimbus Theme not avaliable
}
frame = new JFrame();
frame.setResizable(false);
frame.setTitle("*********** My Program ***********");
frame.setBounds(320, 130, 730, 570);
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.getContentPane().setLayout(null);
Canvas canvasTemp = new Canvas();
canvasTemp.setBackground(SystemColor.window);
canvasTemp.setBounds(6, 277, 380, 255);
frame.getContentPane().add(canvasTemp);
Canvas canvasLevel = new Canvas();
canvasLevel.setBackground(SystemColor.window);
canvasLevel.setBounds(6, 10, 380, 255);
frame.getContentPane().add(canvasLevel);
}
public JFrame frame() {
return frame;
}
}
And here is the main file to get it running for you guys… :
Client.java
import java.io.IOException;
public class Client {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException, InterruptedException {
MyClientApp window = new MyClientApp(null, null);
window.frame.setVisible(true);
}
}
The code I want to implement is:

I’m sorry about the long code. Its just the samplecode from JavaFX. You find it here, and here.
That should be quite easy to solve. Let me explain it with the chart example that you’ve shown.
Add an instance of
JFXPanelto yourJFrame. In your examples, all components are added to aStage, which is the JavaFX class to represent a window. So you don’t need it here. Instead, you add the components that you want to use to the JFXPanel. See also here (functioninitAndShowGUI) how to do it.In the
initfunction of the example, aSceneis created as well as the chart itself. What you have to do to let the chart be shown is not much more than that – create aScene, fill it with content and pass it to theJFXPanelthat you already created.With a minimum effort you can make your chart example run: Make sure that
AdvancedLineChartSample.javais in your build path and that the functioncreateChartis somehow accessible from your JFrame. Then add the chart to your code with something similar to the following snippet.Group root=new Group(); Scene scene=new Scene(root); myJFXPanel.setScene(scene); root.getChildren().add(createChart());This is just a very quick and dirty solution to run your example without any beautiful code and also I didn’t test it. But hopefully it gives you a basic understanding of what’s going on to encourage further experiments. By my own experience I can tell you that from this step on, there’s a lot of fun to come with JavaFX 2.
