- 2. What is Event? •An event represents an occurrence of something of interest to the application, such as a mouse being moved or a key being pressed • In JavaFX, an event is an instance of the javafx.event.Event class or any subclass of Event. • Every JavaFX event has: • eventType • source • target • JavaFX provides several events, including DragEvent, KeyEvent, MouseEvent, ScrollEvent, and others. You can define your own event by extending the Event class. • Subclasses can define type specific properties: • MouseEvent: x,y • KeyEvent: code, character 2K. N. Toosi University of Technology
- 3. Event Properties: 3K. N.Toosi University of Technology Property Description Event Type Type of event that occurred. Source Origin of the event, with respect to the location of the event in the event dispatch chain. The source changes as the event is passed along the chain. Target Node on which the action occurred and the end node in the event dispatch chain. The target does not change, however if an event filter consumes the event during the event capturing phase, the target will not receive the event.

Event Delivery Process: •Event Target Selection • Depends on the particular event type • Event Route Construction • Specified by the event target • Event Capturing Phase • Event travels from the stage to the event target • Event Bubbling Phase • Events travels back from the target to the stage 6K.

- 19. Event Handling • Threemethods of event handling • Convenience methods • setOnKeyPressed(eventHandler); • setOn … • Event handler / filter registration methods • addEventHandler(eventType, eventHandler); • addEventFilter(eventType,eventFilter); • Event dispatcher property • Differ in Complexity and level of control 19K. N. Toosi University of Technology
- 20. Event Handlers • Anevent handler is executed during the event bubbling phase. • If an event handler for a child node does not consume the event, an event handler for a parent node can act on the event after a child node processes it and can provide common event processing for multiple child nodes. • Handlers that are registered for the type of event that occurred are executed as the event returns through the node that registered the handler. 20K. N. Toosi University of Technology
- 21. Demo 1: Clickon Green Circle 21K. N. Toosi University of Technology Stage Scene VBox Rectangle HBox Circle Polygon • Phase 4: In the Event Bubbling phase, the Event traverse from the bottom of the scene graph to the root. • EventHandlers will invoke in this phase Event
- 22. Event Filters • Anevent filter is executed during the event capturing phase. • An event filter for a parent node can provide common event processing for multiple child nodes and if desired, consume the event to prevent the child node from receiving the event. • Filters that are registered for the type of event that occurred are executed as the event passes through the node that registered the filter. 22K. N. Toosi University of Technology
- 23. Demo 1: Clickon Green Circle 23K. N. Toosi University of Technology Stage Scene VBox Rectangle HBox Circle Polygon • Phase 3: In the event capturing phase, the created event traverse from the top of the scene graph to the target node. • EventHandlers will not invoke Event
- 24. Consuming of anEvent • An event can be consumed by an event filter or an event handler at any point in the event dispatch chain by calling the consume() method. • This method signals that processing of the event is complete and traversal of the event dispatch chain ends. • Consuming the event in an event filter prevents any child node on the event dispatch chain from acting on the event. • Consuming the event in an event handler stops any further processing of the event by parent handlers on the event dispatch chain. • If the node that consumes the event has more than one filter or handler registered for the event, the peer filters or handlers are still executed. 24K. N. Toosi University of Technology
- 25. Event Handling Convenience methods •on<EventType> • onMousePressed, onKeyTyped, onAction • Easy way to install, remove or replace an event handler • Sufficient for most use cases • Only one handler per event type • For selected event types only • No support for event filter registration 25K. N. Toosi University of Technology
- 26. Event Handling Convenience methods 26K.N. Toosi University of Technology
- 27. Event Handling Handler /Filter registration methods • Allow to register multiple event handlers / filters for a signle event type • addEventHandler, addEventFilter methods • Can Register one event handler / filter for a whole class of events • All mouse events, all input events, all events • Specific handlers / filters executed before the generic ones • If you wrote two handler for two type of event which they are KeyEvent.KEY_TYPED and InputEvent.ANY the more specified one which is KeyEvent will be called before the handler of the generic one which is InputEvent • Execution order of event handlers at the same level is unspecified and not guaranteed • Exception: on<EventType> handlers executed last 27K.

- 28. Event Handling Handler /Filter registration methods 28K. N. Toosi University of Technology
- 29. Handler or Filter? •Different execution order • Event handler for leaf nodes • Event handler installed on a branch node • Allows to define a default event response for all child nodes • A child node can still define a more specific event response • Event filter installed on a branch node • Can override / force an event response • Can block events from reaching their destination 29K.
