## com.jgoodies.binding.value
Class AbstractValueModel

    java.lang.Object
      com.jgoodies.binding.beans.Model
          com.jgoodies.binding.value.AbstractValueModel

All Implemented Interfaces:
  Observable, ValueModel, Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:
  AbstractConverter, AbstractVetoableValueModel, BeanAdapter.SimplePropertyAdapter, BufferedValueModel, ComponentValueModel, DelayedReadValueModel, DelayedWriteValueModel, NonNullValueModel, PreferencesAdapter, PropertyAdapter, SelectionInList, Trigger, ValueHolder

    public abstract class AbstractValueModel

extends Model
implements ValueModel

An abstract class that minimizes the effort required to implement the `ValueModel` interface. It provides convenience methods to convert boolean, double, float, int, and long to their corresponding Object values and vice versa.

Subclasses must implement `getValue()` and `setValue(Object)` to get and set this model's value.

Field Detail

### PROPERTYNAME_VALUE

    public static final String PROPERTYNAME_VALUE

  The name of the bound property value.

  See Also:
    Constant Field Values

Constructor Detail

### AbstractValueModel

    public AbstractValueModel()

Method Detail

### addValueChangeListener

    public final void addValueChangeListener(PropertyChangeListener l)

  Registers the given PropertyChangeListener with this model. The listener will be notified if the value has changed.

  The PropertyChangeEvents delivered to the listener have the name set to "value". In other words, the listeners won't get notified when a PropertyChangeEvent is fired that has a null object as the name to indicate an arbitrary set of the event source's properties have changed.

  In the rare case, where you want to notify a PropertyChangeListener even with PropertyChangeEvents that have no property name set, you can register the listener with #addPropertyChangeListener, not #addValueChangeListener.

  Specified by:
    `addValueChangeListener` in interface `ValueModel`
  Parameters:
    `l` - the listener to add
  See Also:
    `ValueModel`

### removeValueChangeListener

    public final void removeValueChangeListener(PropertyChangeListener l)

  Removes the given PropertyChangeListener from the model.

  Specified by:
    `removeValueChangeListener` in interface `ValueModel`
  Parameters:
    `l` - the listener to remove

### fireValueChange

    public final void fireValueChange(Object oldValue,
                                      Object newValue)

  Notifies all listeners that have registered interest for notification on this event type. The event instance is lazily created using the parameters passed into the fire method.

  Parameters:
    `oldValue` - the value before the change
    `newValue` - the value after the change
  See Also:
    `PropertyChangeSupport`

### fireValueChange

    public final void fireValueChange(Object oldValue,
                                      Object newValue,
                                      boolean checkIdentity)

  Notifies all listeners that have registered interest for notification on this event type. The event instance is lazily created using the parameters passed into the fire method.

  The boolean parameter specifies whether differences between the old and new value are tested using `==` or `#equals`.

  Parameters:
    `oldValue` - the value before the change
    `newValue` - the value after the change
    `checkIdentity` - true to compare the old and new value using `==`, false to use `#equals`
  See Also:
    `PropertyChangeSupport`

### fireValueChange

    public final void fireValueChange(boolean oldValue,
                                      boolean newValue)

  Notifies all listeners that have registered interest for notification on this event type. The event instance is lazily created using the parameters passed into the fire method.

  Parameters:
    `oldValue` - the boolean value before the change
    `newValue` - the boolean value after the change
  See Also:
    `PropertyChangeSupport`

### fireValueChange
