CheckboxGroup

public CheckboxGroup()

Method Detail

setItems

public CheckboxGroupDataView<T> setItems(DataProvider<T,Void> dataProvider)

Description copied from interface: HasDataView

Set a generic data provider for the component to use and returns the base DataView that provides API to get information on the items.

This method should be used only when the data provider type is not either ListDataProvider or BackEndDataProvider.

Specified by:

setItems in interface HasDataView<T,Void,CheckboxGroupDataView<T>>

Parameters:

dataProvider - DataProvider instance to use, not null

Returns:

DataView providing information on the data

setItems

public CheckboxGroupDataView<T> setItems(InMemoryDataProvider<T> inMemoryDataProvider)

Description copied from interface: HasDataView

Sets an in-memory data provider for the component to use

Note! Using a ListDataProvider instead of a InMemoryDataProvider is recommended to get access to ListDataView API by using HasListDataView.setItems(ListDataProvider).

Specified by:

setItems in interface HasDataView<T,Void,CheckboxGroupDataView<T>>

Parameters:

inMemoryDataProvider - InMemoryDataProvider to use, not null

Returns:

DataView providing information on the data

setItems

public CheckboxGroupListDataView<T> setItems(ListDataProvider<T> dataProvider)

Description copied from interface: HasListDataView

Sets a ListDataProvider for the component to use and returns a ListDataView that provides information and allows operations on the items.

Specified by:

setItems in interface HasListDataView<T,CheckboxGroupListDataView<T>>

Parameters:

dataProvider - ListDataProvider providing items to the component.

Returns:

ListDataView providing access to the items

getListDataView

public CheckboxGroupListDataView<T> getListDataView()

Gets the list data view for the checkbox group. This data view should only be used when the items are in-memory and set with:

• HasListDataView.setItems(Collection)
• HasListDataView.setItems(Object[])
• setItems(ListDataProvider)

If the items are not in-memory an exception is thrown.

Specified by:

getListDataView in interface HasListDataView<T,CheckboxGroupListDataView<T>>

Returns:

the list data view that provides access to the data bound to the checkbox group

getGenericDataView

public CheckboxGroupDataView<T> getGenericDataView()

Gets the generic data view for the checkbox group. This data view should only be used when getListDataView() is not applicable for the underlying data provider.

Specified by:

getGenericDataView in interface HasDataView<T,Void,CheckboxGroupDataView<T>>

Returns:

the generic DataView instance implementing CheckboxGroupDataView

setItems

@Deprecated
public void setItems(Stream<T> streamOfItems)

Deprecated.

Because the stream is collected to a list anyway, use HasListDataView.setItems(Collection) instead.

setDataProvider

@Deprecated
public void setDataProvider(DataProvider<T,?> dataProvider)

Deprecated.

use instead one of the setItems methods which provide access to either CheckboxGroupListDataView or CheckboxGroupDataView

updateSelection

public void updateSelection(Set<T> addedItems,
                            Set<T> removedItems)

Description copied from interface: MultiSelect

Updates the selection by adding and removing the given items from it.

If all the added items were already selected and the removed items were not selected, this is a NO-OP.

Duplicate items (in both add and remove sets) are ignored.

Specified by:

updateSelection in interface MultiSelect<CheckboxGroup<T>,T>

Parameters:

addedItems - the items to add, not null

removedItems - the items to remove, not null

setValue

public void setValue(Set<T> value)

Sets the value of this component. If the new value is not equal to the previous value, fires a value change event.

The component doesn't accept null values. The value of a checkbox group without any selected items is an empty set. You can use the HasValue.clear() method to set the empty value.

Specified by:

setValue in interface HasValue<AbstractField.ComponentValueChangeEvent<CheckboxGroup<T>,Set<T>>,Set<T>>

Specified by:

setValue in interface MultiSelect<CheckboxGroup<T>,T>

Overrides:

setValue in class AbstractField<CheckboxGroup<T>,Set<T>>

Parameters:

value - the new value to set, not null

Throws:

NullPointerException - if value is null

getSelectedItems

public Set<T> getSelectedItems()

Description copied from interface: MultiSelect

Returns an immutable set of the currently selected items. It is safe to invoke other SelectionModel methods while iterating over the set.

Implementation note: the iteration order of the items in the returned set should be well-defined and documented by the implementing class.

Specified by:

getSelectedItems in interface MultiSelect<CheckboxGroup<T>,T>

Returns:

the items in the current selection, not null

addSelectionListener

public Registration addSelectionListener(MultiSelectionListener<CheckboxGroup<T>,T> listener)

Description copied from interface: MultiSelect

Adds a selection listener that will be called when the selection is changed either by the user or programmatically.

Specified by:

Parameters:

listener - the value change listener, not null

Returns:

a registration for the listener

getDataProvider

@Deprecated
public DataProvider<T,?> getDataProvider()

Deprecated.

use getListDataView() or getGenericDataView() instead

Gets the data provider.

Returns:

the data provider, not null

onEnabledStateChanged

public void onEnabledStateChanged(boolean enabled)

Description copied from class: Component

Handle component enable state when the enabled state changes.

By default this sets or removes the 'disabled' attribute from the element. This can be overridden to have custom handling.

Overrides:

onEnabledStateChanged in class Component

Parameters:

enabled - the new enabled state of the component

setReadOnly

public void setReadOnly(boolean readOnly)

Description copied from interface: HasValue

Sets the read-only mode of this HasValue to given mode. The user can't change the value when in read-only mode.

A HasValue with a visual component in read-only mode typically looks visually different to signal to the user that the value cannot be edited.

Specified by:

setReadOnly in interface HasValue<AbstractField.ComponentValueChangeEvent<CheckboxGroup<T>,Set<T>>,Set<T>>

Specified by:

setReadOnly in interface HasValueAndElement<AbstractField.ComponentValueChangeEvent<CheckboxGroup<T>,Set<T>>,Set<T>>

Parameters:

readOnly - a boolean value specifying whether the component is put read-only mode or not

isReadOnly

public boolean isReadOnly()

Description copied from interface: HasValue

Returns whether this HasValue is in read-only mode or not.

Specified by:

isReadOnly in interface HasValue<AbstractField.ComponentValueChangeEvent<CheckboxGroup<T>,Set<T>>,Set<T>>

Specified by:

isReadOnly in interface HasValueAndElement<AbstractField.ComponentValueChangeEvent<CheckboxGroup<T>,Set<T>>,Set<T>>

Returns:

false if the user can modify the value, true if not.

getItemEnabledProvider

public SerializablePredicate<T> getItemEnabledProvider()

Returns the item enabled predicate.

Returns:

the item enabled predicate

See Also:

setItemEnabledProvider(com.vaadin.flow.function.SerializablePredicate<T>)

setItemEnabledProvider

public void setItemEnabledProvider(SerializablePredicate<T> itemEnabledProvider)

Sets the item enabled predicate for this checkbox group. The predicate is applied to each item to determine whether the item should be enabled (true) or disabled (false). Disabled items are displayed as grayed out and the user cannot select them. The default predicate always returns true (all the items are enabled).

Parameters:

itemEnabledProvider - the item enable predicate, not null

This property is not synchronized automatically from the client side, so the returned value may not be the same as in client side.

Returns:

true if the input is required, false otherwise

isInvalid

public boolean isInvalid()

Description copied from interface: HasValidation

Returns true if component input is invalid, false otherwise.

Specified by:

                              Set<T> value2)

Description copied from class: AbstractField

Compares to value instances to each other to determine whether they are equal. Equality is used to determine whether to update internal state and fire an event when AbstractField.setValue(Object) or AbstractField.setModelValue(Object, boolean) is called. Subclasses can override this method to define an alternative comparison method instead of Object.equals(Object).

Overrides:

valueEquals in class AbstractField<CheckboxGroup<T>,Set<T>>
