/**
 * A check box is a graphical component that can be in either an
 * "on" (<code>true) or "off" (false) state.
 * Clicking on a check box changes its state from
 * "on" to "off," or from "off" to "on."
 * <p>
 * The following code example creates a set of check boxes in
 * a grid layout:
 *
 * <hr>
 * setLayout(new GridLayout(3, 1));
 * add(new Checkbox("one", null, true));
 * add(new Checkbox("two"));
 * add(new Checkbox("three"));
 * </pre>

* <p> * This image depicts the check boxes and grid layout * created by this code example: * <p> * <img src="doc-files/Checkbox-1.gif" alt="The following context describes the graphic." * style="float:center; margin: 7px 10px;"> * <p> * The button labeled <code>one is in the "on" state, and the * other two are in the "off" state. In this example, which uses the * <code>GridLayout class, the states of the three check * boxes are set independently. * <p> * Alternatively, several check boxes can be grouped together under * the control of a single object, using the * <code>CheckboxGroup class. * In a check box group, at most one button can be in the "on" * state at any given time. Clicking on a check box to turn it on * forces any other check box in the same group that is on * into the "off" state. * * @author Sami Shaio * @see java.awt.GridLayout * @see java.awt.CheckboxGroup * @since JDK1.0 */ public class Checkbox extends Component implements ItemSelectable, Accessible { static { /* ensure that the necessary native libraries are loaded */ Toolkit.loadLibraries(); if (!GraphicsEnvironment.isHeadless()) { initIDs(); } } /** * The label of the Checkbox. * This field can be null. * @serial * @see #getLabel() * @see #setLabel(String) */ String label; /** * The state of the <code>Checkbox. * @serial * @see #getState() * @see #setState(boolean) */ boolean state; /** * The check box group. * This field can be null indicating that the checkbox * is not a group checkbox. * @serial * @see #getCheckboxGroup() * @see #setCheckboxGroup(CheckboxGroup) */ CheckboxGroup group; transient ItemListener itemListener; private static final String base = "checkbox"; private static int nameCounter = 0; /* * JDK 1.1 serialVersionUID */ private static final long serialVersionUID = 7270714317450821763L; /** * Helper function for setState and CheckboxGroup.setSelectedCheckbox * Should remain package-private. */ void setStateInternal(boolean state) { this.state = state; CheckboxPeer peer = (CheckboxPeer)this.peer; if (peer != null) { peer.setState(state); } } /** * Creates a check box with an empty string for its label. * The state of this check box is set to "off," and it is not * part of any check box group. * @exception HeadlessException if GraphicsEnvironment.isHeadless() * returns true * @see java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment#isHeadless */ public Checkbox() throws HeadlessException { this("", false, null); } /** * Creates a check box with the specified label.
