getSelectedIndex() question

[Jason Long]

Good evening. I had a question as to why I am getting this error:

c:\WTK104\apps\Airgen\src\Airgen.java:59: cannot resolve symbol
symbol  : method getSelectedIndex  ()
location: class Airgen
int index  = getSelectedIndex();
             ^

I wanted to list a series of choices for the user, by using the ChoiceGroup() method. But, when I try to access their choice (from the array that I provided), I get this error.
Also, I'm having some trouble understanding how to set a variable to their response. For instance, I have this right now...
ChoiceGroup siteChoice = new ChoiceGroup("Choose a Site", List.EXCLUSIVE, cells, null);
siteScreen.append(siteChoice);
So can I access which selection they decided on? Thank-you very much for any help you could provide! Happy Father's Day!

I think you should use the getSelectedIndex()-Method with an object. or is it inside this class?

Good evening. I had a question as to why I am getting this error
You are getting that error, because the method, getSelectedIndex, does not exist in the context that you are trying to use it.
by using the ChoiceGroup() method
Is that maybe not a method but a constructor?
Who is this they that you refer to?
ChoiceGroup is not a class in the standard API, so I don't know anything about it.

Ahh, I figured out what I did wrong. Wow, I'm not that smart. Thank-you very much for your help. It is greatly appreciated!
