Java check if Checkbox is checked

Question

I use:

    CheckboxGroup cg = new CheckboxGroup();
    Checkbox c1 = new Checkbox("A", false, cg);
    Checkbox c2 = new Checkbox("B", false, cg);
    Checkbox c3 = new Checkbox("C", true, cg);

To create a group of three checkboxes. Now, I want to check which one of them is checked. I use:

if (c1.isSelected()) { }

but this gives The method isSelected() is undefined for the type Checkbox ... Recommended solution is add cast to c1, I do so and it gives Cannot cast from Checkbox to AbstractButton ... Again, how can I just check if a Checkbox if checked?

Answer 1

Use getState()

boolean checked = c1.getState();
if(c1.getState()) {
  //c1 is checked
} else if (c2.getState()) {
  //
}

OR

Checkbox cb = cg.getSelectedCheckbox();
if(null != cb) {
  //not checked
} else {
  System.out.println(cb.getLabel() + " is checked");
}

Answer 2

您可以使用Checkbox::getState()或（如评论中所述） CheckboxGroup#getSelectedCheckbox()

Answer 3

1st of all java.awt.Checkbox doesn't have .isSelected() method in its super class, which is java.awt.Component.

https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/awt/Checkbox.html

please check the above link for Methods inherited from class java.awt.Component

2nd .isSelected() method can be used if you use JCheckBox from javax.swing.JComponent; but not CheckBox of AWT...

please go through below link.. and you can find .isSelected() which is inherited from javax.swing.AbstractButton;

Answer 4

I found the isChecked() method to be the winner.

 // Check to see if box is checked
 if (c1.isChecked()) {
      // Your code if the box is checked
 } else {
      // Your code if the box is not checked
 }

Answer 5

judging by your use of isSelected i concluded you have 1 of 2 mistakes:

1. you want to use check box, if that is the case, then you should use c1.getState() and not isSelected()
2. you need RadioBox instead of CheckBox and then you can use the isSelected() method. check here about the two

Answer 6

you can try this code

// check is ckeck box id
if (check.isSelected()) {
           // your code for checked;
 } else {
           // our code for not checked;
 }
