 String styleName)

Method Details

wrap

public static SimpleCheckBox wrap(Element element)

Creates a SimpleCheckBox widget that wraps an existing <input type='checkbox'> element. This element must already be attached to the document. If the element is removed from the document, you must call Widget.removeFromParent().

Parameters:

element - the element to be wrapped

addValueChangeHandler

public HandlerRegistration addValueChangeHandler(ValueChangeHandler<Boolean> handler)

Description copied from interface: HasValueChangeHandlers

Adds a ValueChangeEvent handler.

Specified by:

getValue in interface HasValue<Boolean>

Specified by:

getValue in interface TakesValue<Boolean>

Returns:

true if the check box is checked, false otherwise. Will not return null

Parameters:

value - true to check, false to uncheck; null value implies false

See Also:

• TakesValue.getValue()

setValue

public void setValue(Boolean value,
 boolean fireEvents)

Checks or unchecks the check box, firing ValueChangeEvent if appropriate.

Specified by:

setValue in interface HasValue<Boolean>

Parameters:

value - true to check, false to uncheck; null value implies false
