# Shared Model and binding-target discovery
|
||||
|
||||
This is the first stage-4 implementation slice: a read-only binding browser shared by standalone and IntelliJ. The [DirectBinding inspector](direct-binding-inspector.md) now uses discovered targets to start editable declarations. [Converter discovery and DirectBinding validation](converter-validation.md) now extend this slice; generated metadata and the complete inspector remain subsequent work.

The fresh target worker loads classes without initialization and inspects signatures. It never constructs Models, Controllers, providers, controls or Converters, never invokes getters/property accessors, and never starts JavaFX. Application types stay outside both hosts. The independently negotiated `bindings-v2` capability adds the BINDINGS operation; it uses bounded UTF-8 metadata, build/context identity and document revisions, with zero image dimensions. Existing wire operation ordinals remain unchanged.

Model fallback follows NeitzelLib's public read/write JavaBean Attribute rules and simple/complex/collection classification. Nested paths expand to depth four with cycle diagnostics; collection paths expose declared element types without pretending a collection is a single nested Model. Explicit custom BeanInfo is not executed: types requiring it report a generated-metadata diagnostic. This slice does not yet expose custom/replacement ViewModel members, generated metadata, Computed methods or library-provided message properties. Its compatibility results describe the Model-Attribute binding case, not the complete custom ViewModel API.

Generated metadata and arbitrary dynamic property APIs remain unresolved.

Targets come from public instance JavaFX observable-property accessors. The runtime requires writable `Property` accessors, so read-only targets remain visible as incompatible. Generic observable signatures and getter types identify the value type; incomplete or contradictory signatures remain unresolved. Component `model` targets use the Component resource's explicit Model declaration instead of treating Object as a specific type. Component resource metadata comes from the selected build; current-document metadata comes from the captured draft.

Discovery owns a separate workflow so it does not replace the canvas or interactive worker. It uses a leased successful build and a captured current-document overlay. Generation and document-revision checks reject obsolete replies. Document changes clear the target list and require rediscovery; Build and Refresh invalidates the panel. Explicit retained-build selection is identified in the displayed provenance. Closed editors cancel their metadata worker.

FXML parsing disables external entities and DOCTYPE. Inputs, scene-node counts, path expansion, target counts and protocol payloads are bounded. Ambiguous imports, duplicate IDs, missing classes, invalid XML and absent declarations produce diagnostics. Custom ViewModel selection, attached-property binding discovery, open child-draft metadata overlays, generated metadata precedence and complete collection compatibility remain later extensions, not silently inferred support.
