public Checkbox(java.lang.String label,
                java.lang.String image)
Method Detail

getAutodisable

public java.lang.String getAutodisable()
Returns a list of component IDs that shall be disabled when the user clicks this checkbox.

Since:
6.0.0

setAutodisable

public void setAutodisable(java.lang.String autodisable)
Sets a list of component IDs that shall be disabled when the user clicks this checkbox.

To represent the checkbox itself, the developer can specify self. For example, <checkbox id="ok" autodisable="self,cancel"/> is the same as <checkbox id="ok" autodisable="ok,cancel"/> that will disable both the ok and cancel checkboxes when an user clicks it.

The checkbox being disabled will be enabled automatically once the client receives a response from the server. In other words, the server doesn't notice if a checkbox is disabled with this method.

However, if you prefer to enable them later manually, you can prefix with '+'. For example, <checkbox id="ok" autodisable="+self,+cancel"/>

Then, you have to enable them manually such as

if (something_happened){
  ok.setDisabled(false);
  cancel.setDisabled(false);

Default: null.

Since:
5.0.0

isDisabled

public boolean isDisabled()
Returns whether it is disabled.

Default: false.

Specified by:
isDisabled in interface Disable

setDisabled

public void setDisabled(boolean disabled)
Sets whether it is disabled.

Specified by:
setDisabled in interface Disable

isChecked

public boolean isChecked()
Returns whether it is checked.

Default: false.


setChecked

public void setChecked(boolean checked)
Sets whether it is checked.


getValue

public java.lang.String getValue()
Returns the value.

Since:
5.0.4

getName

public java.lang.String getName()
Returns the name of this component.

Default: null.

Don't use this method if your application is purely based on ZK's event-driven model.

The name is used only to work with "legacy" Web application that handles user's request by servlets. It works only with HTTP/HTML-based browsers. It doesn't work with other kind of clients.


setName

public void setName(java.lang.String name)
Sets the name of this component.

Don't use this method if your application is purely based on ZK's event-driven model.

The name is used only to work with "legacy" Web application that handles user's request by servlets. It works only with HTTP/HTML-based browsers. It doesn't work with other kind of clients.

Parameters:
name - the name of this component.

getTabindex

public int getTabindex()
Returns the tab order of this component.

Default: 0 (means the same as browser's default).


setTabindex

public void setTabindex(int tabindex)
                 throws WrongValueException
Sets the tab order of this component.

Throws:
WrongValueException

isChildable

protected boolean isChildable()
Default: not childable.

Overrides:
isChildable in class AbstractComponent

getZclass

public java.lang.String getZclass()
Returns the Style of checkbox label

Default: "z-checkbox"

Since 3.5.1

Overrides:
getZclass in class HtmlBasedComponent

protected void renderProperties(ContentRenderer renderer)
                         throws java.io.IOException
Description copied from class: HtmlBasedComponent
Renders the content of this component, excluding the enclosing tags and children.

See also ZK Client-side Reference: Property Rendering

Overrides:
renderProperties in class LabelImageElement
Throws:
java.io.IOException

service

public void service(AuRequest request,
                    boolean everError)
Processes an AU request.

Default: in addition to what are handled by HtmlBasedComponent.service(org.zkoss.zk.au.AuRequest, boolean), it also handles onCheck.

Specified by:
service in interface ComponentCtrl
Overrides:
service in class HtmlBasedComponent
everError - whether any error ever occurred before processing this request.
Since:
5.0.0
See Also:
AbstractComponent.setAuService(org.zkoss.zk.au.AuService)

updateByClient

protected void updateByClient(java.lang.String name,
                              java.lang.Object value)
Description copied from class: AbstractComponent
Called when the widget running at the client asks the server to update a value. The update is caused by an AU request named setAttr (by invoking zk.Widget's smartUpdate at client).

By default, it does nothing but log a warning message, since it is not safe to allow the client to update a field arbitary.

However, if you'd like to allow the update for a particular component you could do one of the following

  1. For component developers: override this method to update the field directly. For example,
    protected void updateByClient(String name, Object value) {
            if ("disabled".equals(name))
                    setDisabled(name, ((Boolean)value).booleanValue());
            else
                    super.updateByClient(name, value);
  2. For application developers: set an attribute called org.zkoss.zk.ui.updateByClient to be true. Then, this method will use reflection to find out the setter to update the value. Nothing happens if the method is not found.
  3. Notice: this method will invoke AbstractComponent.disableClientUpdate(boolean) to disable any update to the client, when calling the setter.

    If you wanto enable the client update for all instances of a given component (though not recommended for the security reason), you could refer to here.

    See also zk.Widget.smartUpdate().

    Overrides:
    updateByClient in class AbstractComponent
