javafx StringConverter Last Object

问题

i have a little problem for creating an editable ListView.

so i have a City Class with two field : id and name, i have created a ObservableList of cities from a database and assigned it to my ListView, and i have created my cellFactory :

@DatabaseTable(tableName = "city")
public class City {

    @DatabaseField(generatedId = true)
    private int id;

    @DatabaseField
    private String name;

    public City() {}
}

---

citiesList.setCellFactory(new Callback<ListView<City>, ListCell<City>>() {

            @Override
            public ListCell<City> call(ListView<City> param) {

                ListCell<City> cells = new TextFieldListCell<>(new StringConverter<City>() {

                    @Override
                    public String toString(City object) {
                        return object.getName().trim();
                    }

                    @Override
                    public City fromString(String string) {
                        // how to modify the object that was in the cell???
                        return null;
                    }
                });

                return cells;
            }
        });

I want to know if its possible to get a reference of the current value in the cell(City) when fromString is called

i want to do that to allow user to change City name without having to change its Id field.

If you create the cell first, then create the converter, you can reference cell.getItem() in the converter. The following seems to work:

citiesList.setCellFactory(lv -> {
    TextFieldListCell<City> cell = new TextFieldListCell<City>();
    StringConverter<City> converter = new StringConverter<City>() {

        @Override
        public String toString(City city) {
            return city.getName();
        }

        @Override
        public City fromString(String string) {
            City city = cell.getItem();
            if (city == null) {
                City newCity = new City();
                newCity.setName(string);
                return newCity;
            } else {
                city.setName(string);
                return city ;
            }
        }

    };

    cell.setConverter(converter);

    return cell ;
});
