      • getTableView

        public TableView<S> getTableView​()
        Returns the TableView upon which this event occurred.
        Returns:
        The TableView control upon which this event occurred.

      • getTableColumn

        public TableColumn<S,T> getTableColumn​()
        Returns the TableColumn upon which this event occurred.

        The position upon which this event occurred.

      • getNewValue

        public T getNewValue​()
        Returns the new value input by the end user. This is not the value to go back into the TableView.items list - this new value represents just the input for a single cell, so it is likely that it needs to go back into a property within an item in the TableView.items list.

      • getOldValue

        public T getOldValue​()
        Attempts to return the old value at the position referred to in the TablePosition returned by getTablePosition(). This may return null for a number of reasons.
        Returns:
        Returns the value stored in the position being edited, or null if it can not be retrieved.

      • getRowValue

        public S getRowValue​()
        Convenience method that returns the value for the row (that is, from the TableView items list), for the row contained within the TablePosition returned in getTablePosition().
        Returns:
        the value for the row
