Load view via FXML Path

[sideisra]

In some cases I need to load a view based on the FXML path because the FXML name and the view classes name are not identical.

At the moment I can load view tuples via FluentViewLoader#fxmlView or FluentViewLoader#javaView and I have to provide a class.

In my scenario I have a FXML file (some.fxml) and I have a view class with another name (MyView.java) so the name matching of FluentViewLoader will not work.

Possible solution:

• provide a method in FluentViewLoader named fromFxml(String fxmlResourcePath) which can load the specified fxml and instantiate the view class which is specified by fx:controller.

My workaround at the moment:

FXMLLoader fxmlLoader = new FXMLLoader(fxmlPath);
fxmlLoader.setControllerFactory(controllerClass -> {
  final MyView view = new MyView();
  ViewLoaderReflectionUtils.createAndInjectViewModel(view);
  return view;
});
fxmlLoader.load();

This should be easy to add because internally we are already parsing the class-argument to a string path.
