Adding an Icon to the Label of a JCheckBox Component

import javax.swing.JCheckBox;
public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] argv) throws Exception {
    JCheckBox checkbox = new JCheckBox();
    String label = "<html><table cellpadding=0><tr><td><img src=file:"
        + "icon.gif" + "/></td><td width=" + 3 + "><td>"
        // Retrieve the current label text
        + checkbox.getText() + "</td></tr></table></html>";
    // Add the icon
    checkbox.setText(label);
  }
}

Listening to JCheckBox Events with an ItemListener

import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.event.ItemEvent;
import java.awt.event.ItemListener;
import javax.swing.AbstractButton;
import javax.swing.JCheckBox;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
public class JCheckBoxItemListener {
  public static void main(String args[]) {
    JFrame frame = new JFrame("Iconizing CheckBox");
    frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    JCheckBox aCheckBox4 = new JCheckBox("Stuffed Crust");
    ItemListener itemListener = new ItemListener() {
      public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent itemEvent) {
        AbstractButton abstractButton = (AbstractButton)itemEvent.getSource();
        Color foreground = abstractButton.getForeground();
        Color background = abstractButton.getBackground();
        int state = itemEvent.getStateChange();
        if (state == ItemEvent.SELECTED) {
          abstractButton.setForeground(background);
          abstractButton.setBackground(foreground);
        }
      }
    };
    aCheckBox4.addItemListener(itemListener);
    frame.add(aCheckBox4);
    frame.setSize(300, 200);
    frame.setVisible(true);
  }
}





Using JCheckBox

import java.awt.FlowLayout;
import javax.swing.JCheckBox;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
public class JCheckBoxTest {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true);
    JFrame frame = new JFrame("JCheckBox Test");
    frame.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
    frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    JCheckBox ac = new JCheckBox("A/C");
    ac.setSelected(true);
    JCheckBox cdPlayer = new JCheckBox("A");
    JCheckBox cruiseControl = new JCheckBox("B");
    JCheckBox keylessEntry = new JCheckBox("C");
    JCheckBox antiTheft = new JCheckBox("D");
    JCheckBox centralLock = new JCheckBox("E");
    frame.add(new JLabel("Car Features"));
    frame.add(ac);
    frame.add(cdPlayer);
    frame.add(cruiseControl);
    frame.add(keylessEntry);
    frame.add(antiTheft);
    frame.add(centralLock);
    frame.pack();
    frame.setVisible(true);
  }
