# Interface Initializable

public interface Initializable
Controller initialization interface.

NOTE This interface has been superseded by automatic injection of `location` and `resources` properties into the controller. `FXMLLoader` will now automatically call any suitably annotated no-arg `initialize()` method defined by the controller. It is recommended that the injection approach be used whenever possible.

Since:
  JavaFX 2.0
