I am binding two labels, calculating the value of the second label via a series of nested calls to Bindings.when(). Since I'm doing the exact same thing 3 times in a row to 3 similar labels, is there a way to simplify this code by overloading one of the Bindings methods or IntegerBinding methods?
private IntegerProperty ipStrength, ipAgility, ipIntelligence; private IntegerProperty ipStBonus, ipAgBonus, ipInBonus; public RolePlayingCharacter() { ... ipStBonus.bind(Bindings.when(ipStrength.lessThan(5)) .then(-1) .otherwise(Bindings.when(ipStrength.lessThan(9)) .then(0) .otherwise(Bindings.when(ipStrength.lessThan(11)) .then(1) .otherwise(2)))); ipAgBonus.bind(Bindings.when(ipAgility.lessThan(5)) .then(-1) .otherwise(Bindings.when(ipAgility.lessThan(9)) .then(0) .otherwise(Bindings.when(ipAgility.lessThan(11)) .then(1) .otherwise(2)))); ipInBonus.bind(Bindings.when(ipIntelligence.lessThan(5)) .then(-1) .otherwise(Bindings.when(ipIntelligence.lessThan(9)) .then(0) .otherwise(Bindings.when(ipIntelligence.lessThan(11)) .then(1) .otherwise(2)))); ... I have found I can Override Class IntegerBinding's computeValue method, but this doesn't seem to help any, since I would have to do the some thing 3 times anyway, once for each label:
IntegerBinding ibStatBonus = new IntegerBinding() { { super.bind(ipStrength); } @Override protected int computeValue() { int iStatValue = ipStrength.get(); if (iStatValue < 5) { return -1; } else if (iStatValue < 9) { return 0; } else if (iStatValue < 11) { return 1; } else { return 2; } } }; I want to be able to do something simple like:
ipStBonus.bind(ipStrength.calculateStatBonus()); ipAgBonus.bind(ipAgility.calculateStatBonus()); ipInBonus.bind(ipIntelligence.calculateStatBonus()); How do I implement such a thing? How do I make a caclulateStatBonus method part of the list of methods available to an IntegerProperty?
