/**
* A menu item that can be selected or deselected. If selected, the menu
* item typically appears with a checkmark next to it. If unselected or
* deselected, the menu item appears without a checkmark. Like a regular
* menu item, a check box menu item can have either text or a graphic
* icon associated with it, or both.
* <p>
* Either <code>isSelected</code>/<code>setSelected</code> or
* <code>getState</code>/<code>setState</code> can be used
* to determine/specify the menu item's selection state. The
* preferred methods are <code>isSelected</code> and
* <code>setSelected</code>, which work for all menus and buttons.
* The <code>getState</code> and <code>setState</code> methods exist for
* compatibility with other component sets.
* <p>
* Menu items can be configured, and to some degree controlled, by
* <code><a href="Action.html">Action</a></code>s. Using an
* <code>Action</code> with a menu item has many benefits beyond directly
* configuring a menu item. Refer to <a href="Action.html#buttonActions">
* Swing Components Supporting <code>Action</code></a> for more
* details, and you can find more information in <a
* href="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/misc/action.html">How
* to Use Actions</a>, a section in <em>The Java Tutorial</em>.
* <p>
* For further information and examples of using check box menu items,
* see <a
href="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/menu.html">How to Use Menus</a>,
* a section in <em>The Java Tutorial.</em>
* <p>
* <strong>Warning:</strong> Swing is not thread safe. For more
* information see <a
* href="package-summary.html#threading">Swing's Threading
* Policy</a>.
* <p>
* <strong>Warning:</strong>
* Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with
* future Swing releases. The current serialization support is
* appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running
* the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage
* of all JavaBeans<sup><font size="-2">TM</font></sup>
* has been added to the <code>java.beans</code> package.
* Please see {@link java.beans.XMLEncoder}.
