Hi,
To solve the problem, I have created one Java class
public class UIHandler {
Call this method to create node in Component controller as the data should be shared among
multiple views
@param rootInfo is NodeInfo for wdContext in Component Controller
@param name of Value node to be created
@param Collection represents the list of attributes to be created for check boxes
     public static IWDNodeInfo createChildNode(
          IWDNodeInfo rootInfo,
          String name,
          Collection collection) {
          IWDNodeInfo node =
               rootInfo.addChild(
                    name,
                    null,
                    true,
                    true,
                    false,
                    true,
                    false,
                    true,
                    null,
                    null,
                    null);
          for (Iterator iter = collection.iterator(); iter.hasNext();) {
               String str = (String) iter.next();
               node.addAttribute(str, "com.sap.dictionary.boolean");
          return node;
Call this method to create node in view to create list of check boxes
     public static IWDNodeInfo createMappedChildNode(
          IWDNodeInfo nodeInfoOrigin,
          IWDNodeInfo rootInfo,
          String name) {
          IWDNodeInfo nodeInfoView =
               rootInfo.addMappedChild(
                    name,
                    null,
                    nodeInfoOrigin.isSingleton(),
                    nodeInfoOrigin.isMandatorySelection(),
                    nodeInfoOrigin.isMultiple(),
                    nodeInfoOrigin.getPathDescription(),
                    false,
                    true);
          for (Iterator iter = nodeInfoOrigin.iterateAttributes();
               iter.hasNext();
               IWDAttributeInfo attrInfo = (IWDAttributeInfo) iter.next();
               nodeInfoView.addMappedAttribute(
                    attrInfo.getName(),
                    attrInfo.getName());
          return nodeInfoView;
Create list of check boxes
     public static void createCheckBoxes(
          IWDView view,
          String rootContainerName,
          IWDNodeInfo nodeInfo) {
          IWDTransparentContainer rootCont =
               (IWDTransparentContainer) view.getElement(rootContainerName);
          IWDTransparentContainer cont =
               (IWDTransparentContainer) view.createElement(
                    IWDTransparentContainer.class,
                    "Container");
          IWDGridLayout layout =
               (IWDGridLayout) cont.createLayout(IWDGridLayout.class);
          layout.setColCount(2);
          rootCont.addChild(cont);
          for (Iterator iter = nodeInfo.iterateAttributes(); iter.hasNext();) {
               IWDAttributeInfo attrInfo = (IWDAttributeInfo) iter.next();
               IWDLabel label =
                    (IWDLabel) view.createElement(
                         IWDLabel.class,
                         attrInfo.getName());
               label.setText(attrInfo.getName());
               IWDCheckBox cbx =
                    (IWDCheckBox) view.createElement(
                         IWDCheckBox.class,
                         attrInfo.getName() + "cbx");
               cbx.bindChecked(attrInfo);
               label.setLabelFor(cbx.getId());
               cont.addChild(label);
               cont.addChild(cbx);
Now, to create context node in component controller, use following code,
    List list = new ArrayList();
    list.add("Label of check box");
     IWDNodeInfo nodeInfo = UIHandler.createChildNode(wdThis.wdGetTestController().wdGetContext().getNodeInfo(), "Data", list);
     UIHandler.createMappedChildNode(nodeInfo, wdContext.getNodeInfo(), "Data");
To create check box, use following code in wdModifyView,
    if(firstTime) {
         IWDNode node = wdContext.getChildNode("Data", 0);
         IWDNodeInfo nodeInfo = node.getNodeInfo();
         UIHandler.createCheckBoxes(view, "RootUIElementContainer", nodeInfo);
And to access the values of the check boxes in different view, put the following code in wdInit()
    IWDNodeInfo nodeInfo = wdThis.wdGetTestController().wdGetContext().getChildNode("Data", 0).getNodeInfo();
    UIHandler.createMappedChildNode(nodeInfo, wdContext.getNodeInfo(), "Data");
And in wdModifyView
    if(firstTime) {
          IWDNode node = wdContext.getChildNode("Data", 0);
          IWDNodeInfo nodeInfo = node.getNodeInfo();
          UIHandler.createCheckBoxes(view, "RootUIElementContainer", nodeInfo);
