14    * Checkbox list that can be used as a more user-friendly alternative to a multiselect list box.
15     * Usage:
16     * To map the selected ids to corresponding domain objects,
17     * an additional set method is required in the containing domain class:
18     *       //  This additional setter is used to convert the checkBoxList string or string array
19     *       //  of ids selected to the corresponding domain objects.
20     *       public void setAssetSubItemsFromCheckBoxList(ids) {
21     *           def idList = []
22     *           if(ids instanceof String) {
23     *                   if(ids.isInteger())
24     *                       idList << ids.toInteger()
25     *           }
26     *           else {
27     *               ids.each() {
28     *                   if(it.isInteger())
29     *                       idList << it.toInteger()
30     *               }
31     *           }
32     *           this.assetSubItems = idList.collect { AssetSubItem.get( it ) }
33     *       }
34     *
35     * Then a line in the controller:
36     *      assetInstance.setAssetSubItemsFromCheckBoxList(params.assetSubItems)
37     *
38     * Fields:
39     *    name - the property name.
40     *    from - the list to select from.
41     *    value - the current value.
42     *    optionKey - the key to use.
43     *    sortBy - (optional) the attribute to sort the from list by.
44     *    displayFields - (optional) defaults to the objects toString()
45     *    displayFieldsSeparator - (optional) defaults to a space.
46     *    linkController - (optional, requires linkAction.) the controller to use for a link to the objects in the checkBoxList.
47     *    linkAction - (optional, requires linkController.) the action to use for a link to the objects in the checkBoxList.
48     *
49     * Example:
50     *    <!--
51     *    <custom:checkBoxList name="assetSubItems"
52     *                                    from="${AssetSubItem.list()}"
53     *                                    value="${assetInstance?.assetSubItems.collect{it.id}}"
54     *                                    optionKey="id"
55     *                                    sortBy="description"
56     *                                    displayFields="['id', 'name']"
57     *                                    displayFieldsSeparator=', '
58     *                                    linkController="assetSubItemDetailed"
59     *                                    linkAction="show"/>
