Populating Table from DataBase using JavaFX
I was dabbling with connecting to JavaDB database using JavaFX back in September, just did not get around to putting it on the blog. I had previously written a simple Celsius Converter application using JavaFX. Here, I am limiting to a a short piece of code demonstrating the database connection part in the JavaFX application. Ofcourse I am using NetBeans. While I was at it, I decided to also try it using MySQL. This also demonstrates how easy it is to switch between databases (ofcourse you need to have the same schema available on both databases used) in NetBeans. Note that in order to switch to MySQL besides changing the database parameters in the code, all I had to do was add the mysql-connector-java-5.0.7-bin.jar file under the Library node of the Project, instead of derby.jar. Below are the screen shots of the application as well as the source code.

Thank you - this rocks!
I'm eagerly awiting more examples like this on how to build real world applications using JavaFx.

I have not been able to get these examples to work with the preview release of JavaFX. Are there syntax changes required now to make these examples work?

As per
http://javafx.netbeans.org/
...The JavaFX Script plugin for Netbeans IDE 6.1 supports the JavaFX Script language that is based on the OpenJFX compiler... (The previous versions were based on interpreter-based version of the language).
There are several samples available from the following sites:
http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqFXProjectDiff
http://java.sun.com/javafx/reference/
http://java.sun.com/javafx/reference/samples/
http://jfx.wikia.com/wiki/Code_Examples
http://jfx.wikia.com/wiki/Database
Can you check them out and see if they help?
