hopefully this post will avoid someone else wasting needless hours ...

we use the "get" and "set" convention across all of our projects.

Today I put together the classic way of handling checkboxes in an
WORepetition using the following "get" and "set" methods:

        public boolean getGroupSelected() {
                return selectedEmployeeGroups.contains(anEmployeeGroup);
        }

        public void setGroupSelected(boolean b) {
                if (b) {
                        if 
(!selectedEmployeeGroups.containsObject(anEmployeeGroup)) {
                                
selectedEmployeeGroups.addObject(anEmployeeGroup);
                        }
                } else if 
(selectedEmployeeGroups.containsObject(anEmployeeGroup)) {
                        selectedEmployeeGroups.removeObject(anEmployeeGroup);
                }
        }

I then binded up my checkbox like this:

<wo:checkbox checked = "$getGroupSelected"/>

However, when the code runs WO was giving me the classic exception
"the component [insert component name] does not have a method with the
name getGroupSelected .... blah blah blah"

So, you check your class, check your bindings and begin to bang your
head on the desk shouting "yes it f$!&% well does !!!"

Anyway, change the component binding to this:

<wo:checkbox checked = "$groupSelected"/>

and WO is happy again.

I think what is happening is that during the RR loop WO looks for
"setGetGroupSelected" rather than plain "setGroupSelected" and hence
decides it's not going to play game.
