The JavaFX Weekly Dazzle – 2019-10-07

This is the weekly roundup of all the news, articles, links and activities in JavaFX world. On this occasion it is a “tri-weekly roundup” as I was unavailable to produce the last 2 week’s posts so it’s thrice the dazzle!

Once again there has been a high level of JavaFX related content:

The big event during this time was Oracle’s Code One conference where lots of juicy JavaFX content was presented. The sessions included “JavaFX Tips and Tricks: Reloaded [DEV1394]” with Dirk Lemmermann (@dlemmermann), “JavaFX 12 and Beyond [DEV4112]” with Kevin Rushforth (@kevinrushforth), “JavaFX Real-World Applications [DEV1397]” with Dirk and Gerrit Grunwald (@hansolo_), “Rapid Prototyping with JavaFX [DEV4301]” with Jens Ehrke , “JavaFX and the Java Client [MTE6762]” with Kevin and Phil Race , “Building Synet: Using JavaFX and Spring Boot for Autonomous Quadcopters [DEV4291]” with Bob Larsen , William Lindner & Adam Cobb , “Building a Source Code Text Editor in JavaFX [DEV3745]” with Michael Kölling and Neil Brown , “JavaFX 11 on Mobile, Leveraging GraalVM [DEV3646]” with Jose Pereda (@JPeredaDnr), “Java Clients and JavaFX: The Definitive Guide [DEV4857]” with Jose and Stephen Chin (@steveonjava), “Rich Client Java: Still Going Strong! [DEV2513]” with Sven Reimers (@SvenNB), Gerrit & Bruno Borges (@brunoborges), “Not Dead Yet: Java on the Desktop [DEV1126]” with Gerrit and “Cross-Platform Development with GraalVM [DEV3907]” with Tim Felgentreff (@timfelgentreff). That’s a significant amount of JavaFX content proving once again how vibrant the technology, community and ecosystem are.

Michael Paus (@MichaelPaus) in his own words “uploaded two examples where I show two use-cases for the new JavaFX WritableImage with direct buffer support. The first demo makes the well known VLC media player directly usable inside JavaFX and the other demo wraps a BufferedImage so that you can directly render into its graphics context and use it as an Image in JavaFX . (Note: The first demo does not seem to work on Windows at the moment due to some internal VLC specific problems.)”. The link is here
