$(".selectAll").on( "click", function(e) {
    if ($(this).is( ":checked" )) {
      $('#example').rows({page:'current'}).select();
      console.log('select');    
    } else {
      $('#example').rows({page:'current'}).deselect();
      console.log('deselect'); 
    }
  });

I've tried using a new code that says it's valid by looking around the example of full checkbox selection in the forum, but it doesn't work. What's the reason?

    The current Uncaught TypeError: $(...).rows is not a function error.

    You need to reference the DataTables object first:

    $('#example').DataTable().rows({page:'current'}).select();
    

    and likewise for the row().deselect(),

    If you change to that syntax, a new table is created in the space where the table was located, and the Uncaught TypeError: $(...).DataTable(...).rows(...).select is not a function error remains. Is there a css or js file or npm package that I need to add to use that function?

    There was a problem with the table object declaration. After the modification, I applied the code you told me, so it works normally. However, the check box is not active, although the entire row is selected. What should I do? The row checkbox implementation used this example.

    The example you linked to doesn't use the checkboxes for row selection - it uses it to indicate the value of a field and to let the user change that value without entering into an edit mode.

    This example demonstrates Selects` checkbox option, and this example shows it being used with Editor.
