Constructor Detail

### SimpleCheckBox

    public SimpleCheckBox()

  Creates a new simple checkbox.

### SimpleCheckBox

    protected SimpleCheckBox(Element element)

  This constructor may be used by subclasses to explicitly use an existing element. This element must be an <input> element whose type is either 'checkbox'.

  Parameters:
    `element` - the element to be used

### SimpleCheckBox

    SimpleCheckBox(Element element,
                   java.lang.String styleName)

Method Detail

### 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 `RootPanel.detachNow(Widget)`.

  Parameters:
    `element` - the element to be wrapped

### addValueChangeHandler

    public HandlerRegistration addValueChangeHandler(ValueChangeHandler<java.lang.Boolean> handler)

  Description copied from interface: `HasValueChangeHandlers`
  Adds a `ValueChangeEvent` handler.

  Specified by:
    `addValueChangeHandler` in interface `HasValueChangeHandlers<java.lang.Boolean>`
  Parameters:
    `handler` - the handler
  Returns:
    the registration for the event

### asEditor

    public LeafValueEditor<java.lang.Boolean> asEditor()

  Description copied from interface: `IsEditor`
  Returns the Editor encapsulated by the view object.

  Specified by:
    `asEditor` in interface `IsEditor<LeafValueEditor<java.lang.Boolean>>`
  Returns:
    an `Editor` of type E

### getFormValue

    public java.lang.String getFormValue()

  Returns the value property of the input element that backs this widget. This is the value that will be associated with the check box name and submitted to the server if a `FormPanel` that holds it is submitted and the box is checked.

  Don't confuse this with `getValue()`, which returns true or false if the widget is checked.

### getName

    public java.lang.String getName()

  Description copied from interface: `HasName`
  Gets the widget's name.

  Specified by:
    `getName` in interface `HasName`
  Returns:
    the widget's name

### getValue

    public java.lang.Boolean getValue()

  Determines whether this check box is currently checked.

  Note that this does not return the value property of the checkbox input element wrapped by this widget. For access to that property, see `getFormValue()`

  Specified by:
    `getValue` in interface `TakesValue<java.lang.Boolean>`
  Specified by:
    `getValue` in interface `HasValue<java.lang.Boolean>`
  Returns:
    `true` if the check box is checked, false otherwise. Will not return null
  See Also:
    `TakesValue.setValue(V)`

### isChecked

    @Deprecated
    public boolean isChecked()

  Deprecated. Use `getValue()` instead

  Determines whether this check box is currently checked.

  Returns:
    `true` if the check box is checked

### setChecked

    @Deprecated
    public void setChecked(boolean checked)

  Deprecated. Use `setValue(Boolean)` instead

  Checks or unchecks this check box.

  Parameters:
    `checked` - `true` to check the check box

### setEnabled

    public void setEnabled(boolean enabled)

  Description copied from class: `FocusWidget`
  Sets whether this widget is enabled.

  Specified by:
    `setEnabled` in interface `HasEnabled`
  Overrides:
    `setEnabled` in class `FocusWidget`
  Parameters:
    `enabled` - `true` to enable the widget, `false` to disable it

### setFormValue

    public void setFormValue(java.lang.String value)

  Set the value property on the input element that backs this widget. This is the value that will be associated with the check box's name and submitted to the server if a `FormPanel` that holds it is submitted and the box is checked.

  Don't confuse this with `setValue(java.lang.Boolean)`, which actually checks and unchecks the box.

  Parameters:
    `value` -

### setName

    public void setName(java.lang.String name)

  Description copied from interface: `HasName`
  Sets the widget's name.

  Specified by:
    `setName` in interface `HasName`
  Parameters:
    `name` - the widget's new name

### setValue

    public void setValue(java.lang.Boolean value)

  Checks or unchecks the check box.

  Note that this does not set the value property of the checkbox input element wrapped by this widget. For access to that property, see `setFormValue(String)`

  Specified by:
    `setValue` in interface `TakesValue<java.lang.Boolean>`
  Specified by:
    `setValue` in interface `HasValue<java.lang.Boolean>`
  Parameters:
    `value` - true to check, false to uncheck; null value implies false
  See Also:
    `TakesValue.getValue()`

### setValue

    public void setValue(java.lang.Boolean value,
                         boolean fireEvents)

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

  Note that this does not set the value property of the checkbox input element wrapped by this widget. For access to that property, see `setFormValue(String)`

  Specified by:
    `setValue` in interface `HasValue<java.lang.Boolean>`
  Parameters:
    `value` - true to check, false to uncheck; null value implies false
    `fireEvents` - If true, and value has changed, fire a `ValueChangeEvent`

### ensureDomEventHandlers

    protected void ensureDomEventHandlers()

### onUnload

    protected void onUnload()

  This method is called when a widget is detached from the browser's document. Overridden because of IE bug that throws away checked state.

  Overrides:
    `onUnload` in class `Widget`
