Using Factory and Utility Methods from FXCollections
The FXCollections class plays a similar role in the JavaFX observable collections and arrays framework that the
java.util.Collections class plays in the Java collections framework. The FXCollections class contains the
following factory methods for ObservableList :
•

ObservableList<E> observableList(List<E> list)

•

ObservableList<E> observableList(List<E> list, Callback<E, Observable[]>
extractor);

•

ObservableList<E> observableArrayList()

•

ObservableList<E> observableArrayList(Callback<E, Observable[]> extractor);

•

ObservableList<E> observableArrayList(E... items)

•

ObservableList<E> observableArrayList(Collection<? extends E> col)

•

ObservableList<E> concat(ObservableList<E>... lists)

•

ObservableList<E> unmodifiableObservableList(ObservableList<E> list)

•

ObservableList<E> checkedObservableList(ObservableList<E> list, Class<E> type)
