I am trying to get the Jbutton to take the values of the checkbox but i can't make. This is what is have so far. If the values from the check box are in the class the button indicate to the piechart is diplayed. I have registered some more checkboxes after this code still with no values inside. I am using some not java classes to display the piechart. The dataset is a class in this package which stores the values for the pie chart. The error i am getting has as follows.

Everything that is valid is in the class the button points to the other and the invalid in the ones i am trying to enter.
Could someone please show me how to do it...? I need to get the values from the checkbox to the button...well that is what i think...
