Hello,

I have the following Groovy+SwingBuilder code.

In one panel I generate checkboxes and in another panel I want to access the values of the checkboxes. The code looks basically likes this:

   def optionsmap = [ foo : "value_foo",
                      bar : "value_bar"]

   SwingBuilder.build()     
   {
     frame(title:'demo1', size:[400,700], 
           visible:true, defaultCloseOperation:WC.EXIT_ON_CLOSE) {                
       gridLayout(rows: 1, cols: 2)

       panel(id:'optionPanel', constraints:java.awt.BorderLayout.CENTER) {    	  	   	         
              gridLayout(rows: 5, cols: 1)	      		  
    	  myGroup = buttonGroup();    
    	  for (entry in optionsmap)
    	  {		   
    	    checkBox(id: entry.key,   text: entry.value        )     	         
    	  }    		  
       }

       panel(constraints:java.awt.BorderLayout.WEST) {	

          button ('Show values', actionPerformed: {    	     
          for (entry in optionsmap)
            {
               println (entry.key as Class).text			 
            }       	 
          })	     	     
       }
     }  
   }

optionsmap is a map with (id, text) pairs that can be extended.

When I press "show values" I get an error message:

org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.typehandling.GroovyCastException: Cannot cast object 'foo' with class 'java.lang.String' to class 'java.lang.Class'

How could I access the checkboxes for my action in the second panel by using the checkbox ids from optionsmap?

Thank you if you can help
