RE: Create HtmlSelectOneRadio through backing bean

[James Ellis]

I got a reply for this on another forum (Javaranch).

Here is the working code:

HtmlSelectOneRadio htmlSelectOneRadio = new HtmlSelectOneRadio();
htmlSelectOneRadio.setId("_777"+random.nextInt());
htmlSelectOneRadio.setTitle("test");

/** ArrayList of Options */
ArrayList radioBtnOptionsList = new ArrayList();
radioBtnOptionsList.add(new SelectItem(new String("1"),"First Option"));
radioBtnOptionsList.add(new SelectItem(new String("2"),"Second Option"));
radioBtnOptionsList.add(new SelectItem(new String("3"),"Third Option"));

/** Adding a group of CheckBox Options */
UISelectItems radioBtnOptions = new UISelectItems();
radioBtnOptions.setValue(radioBtnOptionsList);

// Add radioButton options.
htmlSelectOneRadio.getChildren().add(radioBtnOptions);

// Select a default value.
// This will set the "First Option" to be selected default wise
htmlSelectOneRadio.setValue(new String("1"));

I need to create a HtmlSelectOneRadio box and add it to a panelGrid. Can anyone give me some sample code for how to create a radio box and initialize it with some test data (any data will do) through a backing bean.

My problem is I can't seem to figure out what is supposed to be in the setValue of htmlSelectOneRadio

   HtmlSelectOneRadio htmlSelectOneRadio = new HtmlSelectOneRadio();
   htmlSelectOneRadio.setId("_"+random.nextInt());
   htmlSelectOneRadio.setValue(??????);
   htmlSelectOneRadio.setTitle("test");



And without a value nothing is being displayed on the page...
