    - #### SimpleCheckBox

          public SimpleCheckBox()

      Creates a new simple checkbox.

    - #### SimpleCheckBox

          protected SimpleCheckBox(Element element)

      This constructor may be used by subclasses to explicitly use an existing element. This element must be an <input> element whose type is either 'checkbox'.
      Parameters:
        `element` - the element to be used

    - #### SimpleCheckBox

          SimpleCheckBox(Element element,
                        java.lang.String styleName)

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### wrap

          public static SimpleCheckBox wrap(Element element)

      Creates a SimpleCheckBox widget that wraps an existing <input type='checkbox'> element. This element must already be attached to the document. If the element is removed from the document, you must call `RootPanel.detachNow(Widget)`.
      Parameters:
        `element` - the element to be wrapped

    - #### asEditor

          public LeafValueEditor<java.lang.Boolean> asEditor()

      Description copied from interface: `IsEditor`

    - #### getFormValue

          public java.lang.String getFormValue()

      Don't confuse this with `getValue()`, which returns true or false if the widget is checked.

      Specified by:
        `getValue` in interface `TakesValue<java.lang.Boolean>`
      Returns:
        `true` if the check box is checked, false otherwise. Will not return null
      See Also:
        `TakesValue.setValue(V)`

      Parameters:
        `enabled` - `true` to enable the widget, `false` to disable it

    - #### setFormValue

          public void setFormValue(java.lang.String value)

      Don't confuse this with `setValue(java.lang.Boolean)`, which actually checks and unchecks the box.

      Parameters:
        `value` -
