JoltChoice provides a Jolt-aware extension of java.awt.Choice and Swing JChoice 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 choice is linked is specified by the occurrenceIndex property of this bean.

JoltChoice can be connected to JoltServiceBeans to contain parts of the input for a service. A JoltServiceBean can listen to events raised by a JoltChoice. JoltChoice sends JoltInputEvents to its listeners (typically JoltServiceBeans) when the selection in the choicebox changes. The JoltInputEvent in this case is populated with the single value of the selected item.
