Detailed Description

A user control that represents a radio button.

Use a WButtonGroup to group together radio buttons that reflect options that are mutually exclusive.

Usage example:

enum class Vote { Republican = 1, Democrat = 2, NoVote = 10 };
 
// use a group box as widget container for 3 radio buttons, with a title
auto container = std::make_unique<Wt::WGroupBox>("USA elections vote");
 
// use a button group to logically group the 3 options
auto group = std::make_shared<Wt::WButtonGroup>();
 
Wt::WRadioButton *button;
button = container->addWidget(
           std::make_unique<Wt::WRadioButton>(
             "I voted Republican"));
container->addWidget(std::make_unique<Wt::WBreak>());
group->addButton(button, Vote::Republican);
 
button = container->addWidget(
           std::make_unique<Wt::WRadioButton>(
             "I voted Democrat"));
container->addWidget(std::make_unique<Wt::WBreak>());
group->addButton(button, Vote::Democrat);
 
button = container->addWidget(
           std::make_unique<Wt::WRadioButton>(
             "I didn't vote"));
container->addWidget(std::make_unique<Wt::WBreak>());
group->addButton(button, Vote::NoVote);
 
group->setCheckedButton(group->button(Vote::NoVote));

WRadioButton is an inline widget.

CSS

This widget corresponds to the HTML <input type="radio"> tag. When a label is specified, the input element is nested in a <label>.

This widget does not provide styling, and can be styled using inline or external CSS as appropriate.
