=head1 SYNOPSIS

  # first group
  $foo1 = Gtk2::RadioButton->new (undef, 'Foo One');
  $foo2 = Gtk2::RadioButton->new ($foo1, 'Foo Two');
  $foo3 = Gtk2::RadioButton->new ($foo2, 'Foo Three');

  # second group, using the group reference
  $bar1 = Gtk2::RadioButton->new (undef, 'Bar One');
  $group = $bar1->get_group;
  $bar2 = Gtk2::RadioButton->new ($group, 'Bar Two');
  $bar3 = Gtk2::RadioButton->new ($group, 'Bar Three');

  # move bar3 from the bar group to the foo group.
  $bar->set_group ($foo->get_group);

  # iterate over the widgets in the group
  $group = $foo1->get_group;
  foreach my $r (@$group) {
      $r->set_sensitive ($whatever);

=for position DESCRIPTION

=head1 DESCRIPTION

A single radio button performs the same basic function as a Gtk2::CheckButton,
as its position in the object hierarchy reflects.  It is only when multiple
radio buttons are grouped together that they become a different user interface
component in their own right.

Every radio button is a member of some group of radio buttons.  When one is
selected, all other radio buttons in the same group are deselected.  A
Gtk2::RadioButton is one way of giving the user a choice from many options;
Gtk2::OptionMenu and Gtk2::ComboBox (added in gtk+ 2.4) are alternatives.

Each constructor can take either a group or widget from that group where the
group is wanted; this is an enhancement over the C API.  Nevertheless, the
_from_widget forms are provided for completeness.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 widget = Gtk2::RadioButton-E<gt>B<new> ($member_or_listref=undef, $label=undef)

=over

=item * $member_or_listref (scalar) reference to radiobutton group or a Gtk2::RadioButton belonging to that group.

=item * $label (string) 

=back

Create a radio button.  If I<$label> is provided, it will be interpreted
as a mnemonic.  If I<$member_or_listref> is undef, the radio button will
be created in a new group.

=head2 widget = Gtk2::RadioButton-E<gt>B<new_from_widget> ($group, $label=undef)

=over

=item * $group (Gtk2::RadioButton or undef) 

=item * $label (string) 

=back

=head2 widget = Gtk2::RadioButton-E<gt>B<new_with_label> ($member_or_listref=undef, $label=undef)

=over

=item * $member_or_listref (scalar) reference to radiobutton group or a Gtk2::RadioButton belonging to that group.

=item * $label (string) 

=back

Create a radio button with a plain text label, which will not be interpreted
as a mnemonic.

=head2 widget = Gtk2::RadioButton-E<gt>B<new_with_label_from_widget> ($group, $label=undef)

=over

=item * $group (Gtk2::RadioButton or undef) 

=item * $label (string) 

=back

=head2 widget = Gtk2::RadioButton-E<gt>B<new_with_mnemonic> ($member_or_listref=undef, $label=undef)

=over

=item * $member_or_listref (scalar) reference to radiobutton group or a Gtk2::RadioButton belonging to that group.

=item * $label (string) 

=back

Create a radio button with a mnemonic; this is an alias for C<new>.

=head2 widget = Gtk2::RadioButton-E<gt>B<new_with_mnemonic_from_widget> ($group, $label=undef)

=over

=item * $group (Gtk2::RadioButton or undef) 

=item * $label (string) 

=back

=head2 arrayref = $radio_button-E<gt>B<get_group> 

Return a reference to the radio group to which I<$radio_button> belongs.
The group is a reference to an array of widget references; the array is B<not>
magical, that is, it will not be updated automatically if the group changes;
call C<get_group> each time you want to use the group.

=head2 $radio_button-E<gt>B<set_group> ($member_or_listref)

=over

=item * $member_or_listref (scalar) reference to the group or a Gtk2::RadioButton belonging to that group.

=back

Assign I<$radio_button> to a new group.
