JavaFX Basics with Eclipse & Scene Builder

About this video

IMPORTANT NOTE: There are several tutorials on my channel where you can find out how to use the newer version of JavaFX Scene Builder with JDK8. However, if you are new to JavaFX, I still recommend that you watch this video first.

Software used in this tutorial:
Java JDK 7 - You need to set "JAVA_HOME" system variable, and point it to the folder where you installed JDK 7
JavaFX Scene Builder - Nothing special here, I skipped this part in the video
Eclipse (Kepler) - You will have to install "Xtext" and "e(fx)clipse" plugins

Some notes:
- In Scene Builder, controller class should be in format "package.anotherpackage.Class"
- You should define all UI controls in Eclipse with @FXML annotation. Names have to be the same as in Scene Builder. The naming rule goes for actions/methods as well.
- Whenever you change something in the Scene Builder, you should refresh your Eclipse project so that it detects the changes in .fxml file.

Hopefully this will be enough to get you started ;)
