JavaFX8: How to create listener for selection of row in Tableview?

Question

I currently have two tableviews in one screen, which results in both TableViews have rows which the user can select.

Now I want only one row to be selected at the sa

Answer 1

In case you need not only the row, but the x|y position of the table cell, do this:

table.getFocusModel().focusedCellProperty().addListener(
        new ChangeListener<TablePosition>() {
    @Override
    public void changed(ObservableValue<? extends TablePosition> observable,
            TablePosition oldPos, TablePosition pos) {
        int row = pos.getRow();
        int column = pos.getColumn();
        String selectedValue = "";

        if (table.getItems().size() > row
                && table.getItems().get(row).size() > column) {
            selectedValue = table.getItems().get(row).get(column);
        }

        label.setText(selectedValue);
    }
});

In this example, I am using a "classic" TableView with List<String> as column model. And, of course, that label is just an example from my code.

The selectedItem in the selection model is an observable property, so you should be able to achieve this with:

tableview1.getSelectionModel().selectedItemProperty().addListener((obs, oldSelection, newSelection) -> {
    if (newSelection != null) {
        tableview2.getSelectionModel().clearSelection();
    }
});

tableview2.getSelectionModel().selectedItemProperty().addListener((obs, oldSelection, newSelection) -> {
    if (newSelection != null) {
        tableview1.getSelectionModel().clearSelection();
    }
});

This question helped me but during experiment in javafx and jfoenix this also works for me.

deleteSingle.addEventHandler(MouseEvent.MOUSE_CLICKED, (e) -> {

            StringProperty selectedItem = table.getSelectionModel().getSelectedItem().getValue().link1;

            System.out.println("That is selected item : "+selectedItem);

            if (selectedItem.equals(null)) {

            System.out.println(" No item selected");


            } else {
                System.out.println("Index to be deleted:" + selectedItem.getValue());

                 //Here was my database data retrieving and selectd
                 // item deleted and then table refresh
                table.refresh();

                return;
            }

        });

My solution would be creating custom cell factory for table and set it for each table columns.

Callback<TableColumn<..., ...>, TableCell<..., ...>> value = param -> {
                TextFieldTableCell cell = new TextFieldTableCell<>();
                cell.addEventFilter(MouseEvent.MOUSE_CLICKED, event -> {
                            //your code
                        }
                );
                return cell;
            };
            packageName.setCellFactory(value);

    table1.column1.setCellFactory();
    table2.column1.setCellFactory();
    ...

I use it for deleting the chosen row.

public void ButtonClicked()
{
  ObservableList<Names> row , allRows;
  allRows = table.getItems();
  row = table.getSelectionModel().getSelectedItems();         
  row.forEach(allRows::remove);
}
