Checkbox widget

A checkbox widget

Checkbox widget

Checkbox attributes can be accessed as widget->checkbox.

Checkbox widget constructor
gp_widget *gp_widget_checkbox_new(const char *label, int val);

gp_widget *gp_widget_checkbox_new2(const char *label, int val,
                                   int (*on_event)(gp_widget_event *ev),
                                   void *priv)

Creates a checkbox widget, label can be NULL.

Function to access and change checkbox value
void gp_widget_checkbox_set(gp_widget *self, int val);

void gp_widget_checkbox_toggle(gp_widget *self);

int gp_widget_checkbox_get(gp_widget *self);

There is a difference between calling the gp_widget_checkbox_get() function and getting the value directly as widget->checkbox->val. The function call is type-safe, which means that the function will return -1 if the widget type is not checkbox, while the direct access will possibly cause undefined behavior if the widget type is not correct.
