How to manage two JRadioButtons in java so that only one of them can be selected at a time

Question

How to manage two JRadioButtons in java so that only one of them can be selected at a time? Is there any method in java to take care of this or you need to build your own lo

Answer 1

My java is rusty but if i remember correctly you have to use the ButtonGroup class. Add your radio buttons to ButtonGroup object. I think it will look like this.

ButtonGroup buttonGroup = new ButtonGroup();
buttonGroup.add(new JRadioButton('Label', false));
buttonGroup.add(new JRadioButton('Label2', true));

Hope this helps. I have abandoned Java years ago.
