JoltCheckbox is a Jolt-aware extension of java.awt.Checkbox and Swing JCheckBox that is linked to a specific field in the Jolt input buffer by its JoltFieldName property. If the field occurs multiple times, the occurrence to which this checkbox is linked is specified by the occurrenceIndex property of this bean.

JoltCheckbox can be connected with JoltServiceBeans to contain parts of the input for a service. A JoltServiceBean listens to events raised by a JoltCheckbox. JoltCheckbox sends JoltInputEvents to its listeners (typically JoltServiceBeans) when the selection in the checkbox changes. The JoltInputEvent in this case is populated with the TrueValue property of data type String (if the box is selected) or FalseValue (if the box is unselected).
