getting mx:CheckBox values from inside mx:Repeater

Question

I have an an array of objects that I use as the datasource for my repeater.

<mx:Repeater id="categoryRepeater" dataProvider="{this.allCategories}">
<mx:HBox>
<mx:Spacer width="20"/>
<mx:CheckBox id="categoryCheckBox" label="{categoryRepeater.currentItem.question}"/>
</mx:HBox>
</mx:Repeater>

I would like to be able to tell which of the checkboxes in the list have been checked, but I'm not sure how to do it. I know I can add a function when it's clicked, but I don't know how to tell which checkbox called the function.

Answer 1

Use the currentIndex property.
