DESCRIPTION

A LibUI::Checkbox object represents a user checkable box accompanied by a text label.

Functions

Not a lot here but... well, it's just a checkbox.

new( ... )

    my $chk = LibUI::Checkbox->new( 'Perl' );

Creates a new checkbox.

checked( ... )

    if( $chk->checked ) {
        ...;
    }

Returns whether or the checkbox is checked.

onToggled( ... )

    $chk->onToggled(
    sub {
        my ($ctrl, $data) = @_;
        warn $ctrl->text;
    }, undef);

Registers a callback for when the checkbox is toggled by the user.

Expected parameters include:

$callback - CodeRef that should expect the following:
$chk - backreference to the instance that initiated the callback
$data - user data registered with the sender instance
$data - user data to be passed to the callback

Note: The callback is not triggered when calling setChecked( ... ).

setChecked( ... )

    $chk->setChecked( 1 );

setText( ... )

    $chk->setText( 'Updated' );
