Class sap.m.RadioButtonModule: sap/m/RadioButton

extends Control

RadioButton is a control similar to CheckBox, but it allows the user to choose only one of the predefined set of options.

Usually, RadioButton is used in a group with other RadioButtons (with the groupName property or by using sap.m.RadioButtonGroup), thus providing a limited choice for the user. An event is triggered when the user makes a change of the selection.
