How can i create brandnew object in JavaFX controller file?

Question

Today I want to provide action to my button. So, i want to inicialize new object(User) and do some stuff on it. But i got some errors. I can't handle it alone.

User class

package HomePlanner;

import javafx.beans.property.DoubleProperty;
import javafx.beans.property.StringProperty;

import java.time.LocalDate;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Date;

/**
 * Created by mscib on 11.08.2016.
 */
public class User {
    private ArrayList<Expenses> listOfExpenses = new ArrayList<>();
    private DoubleProperty cash;


    public double getCash() {
        return cash.get();
    }

    public DoubleProperty cashProperty() {
        return cash;
    }

    public void setCash(double cash) {
        this.cash.set(cash);
    }

    public void addExpense(String name, String category, LocalDate date, double cost){
        if(name != null && category != null && date != null && (cash.getValue()-cost)>0){
            Expenses exp = new Expenses(category,name,cost,date);
            listOfExpenses.add(exp);
        }
    }

    public User(double cash){
        setCash(cash);
    }


}

Expenses Class

package HomePlanner;

import javafx.beans.property.DoubleProperty;
import javafx.beans.property.StringProperty;

import java.time.LocalDate;
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.Set;
import java.util.TreeSet;

/**
 * Created by mscib on 11.08.2016.
 */
public class Expenses {
    private String category;

    public String getCategory() {
        return category;
    }
    LocalDate date;

    private String name;

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    private DoubleProperty cost;

    public double getCost() {
        return cost.get();
    }

    public DoubleProperty costProperty() {
        return cost;
    }

    public void setCost(double cost) {
        this.cost.set(cost);
    }

    public Expenses(String cat, String name, double cost,LocalDate date){
        this.date= date;
        category = cat;
        this.name=name;
        setCost(cost);
    }
}

Controller Class

package HomePlanner;

import com.sun.javafx.css.converters.StringConverter;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javafx.scene.control.ComboBox;
import javafx.scene.control.DatePicker;
import javafx.scene.control.TextField;
import javafx.scene.text.Text;
import javafx.event.ActionEvent;

import java.time.LocalDate;
import java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter;

public class Controller {

    @FXML
    TextField nameField;
    @FXML
    TextField costField;
    @FXML
    DatePicker datePicker;
    @FXML
    ComboBox<String> categoryCombo;

    @FXML
    Button addButton;
    @FXML
    Button deleteButton;
    @FXML
    Button editButton;



    @FXML
    public void initialize(){
        User newUser = new User(100.0);
        categoryCombo.getItems().clear();
        categoryCombo.getItems().addAll(
                "Dom","Jedzenie","Odzież","Rozrywka"
        );

        addButton.setOnAction(event -> System.out.println(newUser.getCash()));

    }

}

Main Class

package HomePlanner;

import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXML;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.layout.AnchorPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class Main extends Application {
    Parent root;
    @Override
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception{
        FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("ExpensesOverview.fxml"));
        Parent root = loader.load();

        Controller myController = loader.getController();

        myController.initialize();
        Scene scene = new Scene(root);
        primaryStage.setScene(scene);
        primaryStage.show();
        primaryStage.sizeToScene();
    }


    public static void main(String[] args) {
        launch(args);
    }
}

Best wishes, Michal.

Your `DoubleProperty cash` is uninitialized when you call `setCash` in the constructor. — Taha, Sep 02 '16 at 12:04
Thank you very much. And thanks to fabian also for advice. I have to save that link. Have a nice day! — Michał Ściborski, Sep 02 '16 at 12:15
