Checkboxes are on-off toggles implemented as
|
Checkbox red = new Checkbox("Red");
|
Checkbox green = new Checkbox("Green");
|
Checkbox blue = new Checkbox("Blue",null, true);
|
add(red); add(green); add(blue);
|
The first two are initially set to "false" as the optional third argument is not given. The last one is initially set to "true".
|
The state of a checkbox, i.e. whether it is checked, is given by a boolean result of the method, getState:
-
if (red.getState()) . . .;
|
If a user clicks a Checkbox, an ItemEvent is generated. The listener must implement ItemListener with the one method itemStateChanged (ItemEvent e).
