Question: JavaFX GUI program that uses the MVC pattern. I have combo box in my GUIview program class and I need to add another combo box

JavaFX GUI program that uses the MVC pattern.

I have combo box in my GUIview program class and I need to add another combo box for down menu of years. example 2018, 2017, 2016 ....etc. how do I create, declare, and use it in the GUIcontroller. the following is part of my program in the GUIview class.

private ComboBox statusComboBox ;

private ComboBox yearComboBox;

this is my enum class

public enum Status {

ACTIVE ("AC", "Active Employee"), INACTIVE_TEMP ("IT", "Temporarily Inactive"), INACTIVE_PERM ("IP", "Permanently Inactive");

this is part only for the statusComboBox.

statusLabael = new Text("Select the Status:");

statusLabael .setFont(font);

ObservableList StatusOptions = FXCollections.observableArrayList((Arrays.asList(Status.values())));

statusComboBox = new ComboBox(StatusOptions);

statusComboBox .setValue(Status.PERMANENT);

HBox statusBox = new HBox( yearLabel, yearComboBox,StatusLabael, StatusComboBox);

statusBox .setAlignment(Pos.CENTER);

statusBox .setSpacing(20);

primaryBox.getChildren().add(statusBox );

it has it's own getters and setters

public Status getStatusField() {

return statusComboBox.getValue();

}

public void setStatusField(Status status) {

statusComboBox.setValue(status);

}

public void clearInputs() {

titleField.clear();

yearField.clear();

statusComboBox.setValue(DEFAULT_STATUS);

}

Assume I have the one Parent class, one Child class, Enum, GUIController class, GUIView class, and one for the ArrayList class to hold the lists.

My question is how do I create the same thing and pattern with this classes for the yearComboBox and put it in the HBox of, HBox statusBox = new HBox( yearLabel, yearComboBox,StatusLabael, StatusComboBox);

private ComboBox yearComboBox;

yearLabel = new Text("Select the Year:");

yearLabel.setFont(font);

do I need to create another Enum for the yearComboBox.

I need to display the year like this please, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014

please use JavaFx.
