input - What is the recommended way to make a numeric TextField in JavaFX?

Question

I need to restrict input into a TextField to integers. Any advice?

Answer 1

Very old thread, but this seems neater and strips out non-numeric characters if pasted.

// force the field to be numeric only
textField.textProperty().addListener(new ChangeListener<String>() {
    @Override
    public void changed(ObservableValue<? extends String> observable, String oldValue, 
        String newValue) {
        if (!newValue.matches("\d*")) {
            textField.setText(newValue.replaceAll("[^\d]", ""));
        }
    }
});
