/**

 * The <code>CheckboxGroup</code> class is used to group together

 * a set of <code>Checkbox</code> buttons.

 * <p>

 * Exactly one check box button in a <code>CheckboxGroup</code> can

 * be in the "on" state at any given time. Pushing any

 * button sets its state to "on" and forces any other button that

 * is in the "on" state into the "off" state.

 * <p>

 * The following code example produces a new check box group,

 * with three check boxes:

 * <p>

 * <hr><blockquote><pre>

 * setLayout(new GridLayout(3, 1));

 * CheckboxGroup cbg = new CheckboxGroup();

 * add(new Checkbox("one", cbg, true));

 * add(new Checkbox("two", cbg, false));

 * add(new Checkbox("three", cbg, false));

 * </pre></blockquote><hr>

 * <p>

 * This image depicts the check box group created by this example:

 * <p>

 * <img src="doc-files/CheckboxGroup-1.gif"

 * alt="Shows three checkboxes, arranged vertically, labeled one, two, and three. Checkbox one is in the on state."

 * ALIGN=center HSPACE=10 VSPACE=7>
