JavaFX Tableview on another screen


JavaFX Tableview on another screen



I am attempting to show a populated tableview on another controller in JavaFX using an example demo.



I have a model and view folder. There are three classes: In model folder: Main.java, DisplayContactListController.java, and Contact.java (data model).



in view folder: main.fxml (which has a button that goes to DisplayContactList.fxml) and DisplayContactList.fxml.



I need my table view to show on DisplayContactList.fxml, right now the page loads when I click the button but its blank... no tableview.


public class DisplayContactListController extends Application {
@FXML
private TableView<Contact> tvContactsList;

@Override
public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
Label response = new Label("");
Label title = new Label("Contact List Using a TableViewn");
title.setFont(Font.font("Arial", FontWeight.BOLD, 20));
title.setTextFill(Color.CADETBLUE);

FlowPane root = new FlowPane();
root.setAlignment(Pos.CENTER);

Scene scene = new Scene(root, 450, 450);

ObservableList<Contact> contactList = FXCollections.observableArrayList(
new Contact("Peggy", "Fisher", "717-555-1212"),
new Contact("Jim", "Freed", "441-456-1345"),
new Contact("Pat", "Keegan", "717-363-1432"),
new Contact("Jane", "Slattery", "441-478-4488"),
new Contact("Cy", "Young", "970-554-1265"),
new Contact("Rob", "Jones", "570-655-1587"),
new Contact("Carol", "King", "215-547-5958"),
new Contact("Bob", "Kauffman", "215-456-6345"),
new Contact("Gloria", "Shilling", "717-785-6092"),
new Contact("Bill", "Sigler", "441-444-1345")
);

tvContactsList = new TableView<>(contactList);

TableColumn<Contact, String> fName = new TableColumn<>("First Name");
fName.setCellValueFactory(new PropertyValueFactory<>("firstName"));
tvContactsList.getColumns().add(fName);

TableColumn<Contact, String> lName = new TableColumn<>("Last Name");
lName.setCellValueFactory(new PropertyValueFactory<>("lastName"));
tvContactsList.getColumns().add(lName);

TableColumn<Contact, String> cell = new TableColumn<>("Cell Phone Number");
cell.setCellValueFactory(new PropertyValueFactory<>("cellPhone"));
tvContactsList.getColumns().add(cell);

tvContactsList.setPrefWidth(300);
tvContactsList.setPrefHeight(300);

TableView.TableViewSelectionModel<Contact> tvSelContact =
tvContactsList.getSelectionModel();

tvSelContact.selectedIndexProperty().addListener((ObservableValue<? extends Number> changed, Number oldVal, Number newVal) -> {
int index = (int)newVal;
response.setText("The cell number for the contact selected is "
+contactList.get(index).getCellPhone());
});

response.setFont(Font.font("Arial", 14));
root.getChildren().addAll(title,tvContactsList, response);
primaryStage.setTitle("Contact List");
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.show();
}
}



How do I get the table view to show on a secondary page?
