C# Console Application Checkboxes

To use in own System

  1. Possibility

    • Copy Checkbox.cs class to the same directory like Program.cs is in (<Project directory>/<Project name>/Checkbox.cs)
    • Goto your <Project name>.csproj
    • Search for Compile and add in scope of this <ItemGroup> another tag like the others: <Compile Include="Checkbox.cs" />

  2. Possibility

Usage:

Code examples in Checkbox/Program.cs
// First create a Checkbox object

// First parameter is the headline shown above the select boxes
string checkboxHeadline = "Select one of the following options";
// Standarts are no multiple selection and selection is required
// As select option you either can give an array as parameter
string[] otps = {"1. option", "2. option", "3. option" /* ... */};
Checkbox c1 = new Checkbox(checkboxHeadline, opts);
// Or directly as function parameter
Checkbox c2 = new Checkbox(checkboxHeadline, /* options: */ "1. option", "2. option", "3. option" /* ... */);

// If you want to allow multiple selections
Checkbox c3 = new Checkbox(checkboxHeadline, /* multi-mode: */ true, opts);

// If you want to disable requirement of the checkboxes to be checked
// Please note that in this case you also have to give the multi-mode parameter
Checkbox c4 = new Checkbox(checkboxHeadline, /* multi-mode: */ false, /* required: */ false, opts);


// After creating the Checkbox object
// First call Show method
// Then call the Select method

c1.Show();
c1.Select();

// And get the output which is a list of object arrays where one object array contains the index and the name of the selected option
List<object[]> result = c1.GetStatus();
