Returns:

the FX application

setFxApplication

public void setFxApplication(FxApplication fxApplication)

Sets the FX application instance.

Parameters:

fxApplication - the FX application

getApplicationClass

public Class<? extends FxApplication> getApplicationClass()

Gets the FX application class.

Returns:

the fx application class

createDomainContext

public DomainContext createDomainContext(org.tentackle.session.Session session)

Overridden to create a DomainContext with a thread-local session.

In deskop client apps there are 2 threads using their own session:

1. the FX thread
2. the ModificationTracker thread

By using the thread-local session, PDOs can be used from both threads without having to worry about the correct session.

Overrides:

createDomainContext in class AbstractApplication

Returns:

the domain context

start

public void start(String[] args)

Launches the application.

Parameters:

args - the arguments (usually from commandline)

stop

public void stop()

Gracefully terminates the application. Usually invoked from an exit-Button or when window is closed.

getCommandLine

public org.tentackle.misc.CommandLine getCommandLine()

Gets the command line.

Returns:

the command line

configurePreferences

protected void configurePreferences()

Installs the preferences backend.
The option "systemprefs" forces usage of system preferences only.

Overrides:

configurePreferences in class AbstractApplication

configureSecurityManager

protected void configureSecurityManager()

Overrides:

configureSecurityManager in class AbstractApplication

configureModificationTracker

protected void configureModificationTracker()

Overrides:

configureModificationTracker in class AbstractApplication

doFinishStartup

protected void doFinishStartup()
                        throws org.tentackle.misc.ApplicationException

ex - an exception causing the termination, null if none

doStop

protected void doStop(int exitValue)

Terminates the application gracefully.
