Detailed Description

Dialog class.

Library: ilvadvgdt

The IlvIPromptString class defines a dialog that lets the user choose among a list of strings. The names of the graphic objects are displayed to let you change the default look of the dialog.


A prompt string dialog

IlvPromptDialog.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

IlvIPromptString::IlvIPromptString ( IlvDisplay display,
const char *  string = 0,
const char *const *  strings = 0,
IlUShort  count = 0,
IlBoolean  copy = IlTrue,
IlBoolean  showtextf = IlTrue,
const char *  fileordata = 0,
IlvSystemView  transientFor = 0,
IlUInt  properties = 0 
)

Constructor.

Initializes a new instance of the IlvIPromptString class.

Parameters
displayThe connection to the display.
stringThe initial selection.
stringsThe array of strings from which the user can choose.
countThe number of elements in strings. If count is set to 0, the string list is not displayed.
copyA Boolean value specifying whether strings should be copied.
showtextfA Boolean value specifying whether the text field should be shown or hidden.
fileordataSpecifies an alternative source of Rogue Wave Views data defining the user interface of this dialog. This data can be stored in a file, in which case fileordata represents the name of the file, or in a C++ string, in which case fileordata stands for the string itself. If fileordata is not specified, the default dialog is used.
transientForThe system view for which the dialog is transient. For details, see the IlvView constructors.
propertiesThe properties of the dialog. For details, see the IlvView constructors.

Member Function Documentation

const char* IlvIPromptString::get ( IlBoolean  grab = IlFalse,
IlvCursor cursor = 0 
)

Displays the dialog as a modal dialog.

Parameters
grabSpecifies whether the dialog should be system modal. The system modal dialog grabs input events occurring on the entire system so that other applications are not able to catch any keyboard or mouse event until the member function returns. In this case, you can specify the cursor to be used with the cursor parameter. If grab is set to IlFalse (the default), the dialog is application modal, which means that the application does not receive input events in other windows.
Note
Some operating systems, such as Windows NT and Windows 95, do not allow system modal dialogs. On these operating system dialogs are always application modal.
Parameters
cursorThe cursor used to make the selection.
Returns
The selected string.
See also
getResult.
const char* IlvIPromptString::getResult ( )

Returns the current selection.

Returns
The current selection.
See also
setResult.
void IlvIPromptString::setLabels ( const char *const *  strings,
IlUShort  count,
IlBoolean  copy = IlTrue,
IlBoolean  showtextf = IlTrue 
)

Reloads the default components of the dialog and initializes it with the specified parameters.

If you have customized the dialog, your modifications will be lost.

Parameters
stringsThe array of strings from which the user can choose.
countThe number of elements in strings. If count is 0, the dialog does not display the string list.
copyA Boolean value specifying whether strings should be copied.
showtextfA Boolean value specifying whether the text field should be shown or hidden.
void IlvIPromptString::setResult ( const char *  string)

Sets the string of the current selection.

Parameters
stringThe new selection.
See also
getResult.
void IlvIPromptString::setString ( const char *  string)

Sets the string displayed in the IlvMessageLabel object named "title".

Parameters
stringThe new label for the IlvMessageLabel object named "title".
