You only need to define a boolean property in your entity module (persisted or transient) and OpenXava will draw a CheckBox by default for that property in the views you include that property (of course).

Then, if you want to react to changes to that CheckBox, you can use the @OnChange() annotation for this property and link the event to your custom "On change action".

Please, read or test the multiple examples that there are available.

Try adding a boolean property to some entity of the quick star guide and you will see (remember to update the DB schema if the property is not transient).

You can edit the .jsp and add what you need.

For a checkbox you can add this to your .jsp

<input type="checkbox" name="name" value="val" />

Is there any annotations for that? – Feras Odeh Nov 21 '12 at 18:10
No, it is just an HTML element. I believe you will use events to manage it something like OnSelectElementAction. – Sully Nov 21 '12 at 18:14
