Detailed Description

Base class for general dialog support for both modeless and modal behavior.

Deprecated:
Use MGUI::DLGSHELL

The derived class must override the GetDialogName(), GetDialogHelpID() and OnInitDialog() methods. Most derived classes will also override the OnApply to perform the desired update of the external data when the user presses "OK" or "Apply". When overriding the On...() virtual methods pay close attention to when (or if) the corresponding superclass method is to be called.

Member Function Documentation

void MIDIALOG::Close ( bool  notify = true  ) 

Close the dialog if modeless.

Parameters:
notify Notify via OnClose()
Widget MIDIALOG::CreateButtonRow ( const BUTTONITEM ButtonItems,
void *  cbdata = 0,
void *  userdata = 0 
) [protected]

Create buttons at bottom of form.

Returns:
Separator Widget attached above buttons
Widget MIDIALOG::CreateButtons ( BUTTONS  buttons = BUTTONS_Default  )  [protected]

Create standard buttons at bottom of form.

Default button labels will depend on the dialog style. Modal dialog buttons will be "OK", "Cancel" and "Help". Modeless dialog buttons will be "OK", "Cancel", "Apply" and "Help". For modeless dialogs, pressing "OK" has the same effect as pressing "Apply" followed by "Close".

Returns:
Separator Widget attached above buttons
Parameters:
buttons Buttons to create
ERRVALUE MIDIALOG::CreateModeless ( MDLGPARENT  dlgparent  ) 

Create "modeless" dialog (without opening it).

Parameters:
dlgparent Parent for dialog
ERRVALUE MIDIALOG::DoModal ( MDLGPARENT  dlgparent  ) 

Open dialog in modal state and wait for user to dismiss via OK/Cancel.

Returns:
0 if OK, EUserCancel if Cancel, < 0 if error
Parameters:
dlgparent Parent for modal dialog
virtual const char* MIDIALOG::GetDialogHelpID (  )  const [protected, pure virtual]

Get dialog HelpID.

Returns:
String for HelpID.
virtual const char* MIDIALOG::GetDialogName (  )  const [protected, pure virtual]

Get dialog name for title resource.

Returns:
String for title resource lookup.
Widget MIDIALOG::GetMainForm (  )  const [inline, protected]

Get outermost Form widget.

bool MIDIALOG::IsCreated (  )  const [inline]

Determine if dialog has been created.

bool MIDIALOG::IsOpen (  )  const [inline]

Determine if dialog is currently open.

virtual void MIDIALOG::OnApply (  )  [protected, virtual]

Called when user presses "Apply" button.

Will also be called when "OK" button is pressed if have "Apply" button and "Apply" is not disabled. Derived class must call superclass OnApply() method BEFORE performing its own processing.

virtual void MIDIALOG::OnCancel (  )  [protected, virtual]

Called when "Cancel" button is pressed.

Derived class must call superclass OnCancel() method AFTER performing its own processing to properly close the dialog. In some cases the user may be given an opportunity to verify that they intended to press the Cancel button. If they elect not to cancel then the superclass OnCancel() method should not be called. This will cause the dialog to remain open and allow the user to retain the settings.

virtual void MIDIALOG::OnClose (  )  [protected, virtual]

Called when dialog is closed.

virtual ERRVALUE MIDIALOG::OnInitDialog ( Widget  form  )  [protected, pure virtual]

Create dialog contents.

Derived class MUST implement this. Function must return 0 for success or an error code. This will be called by the dialog creation code and thus should not be called directly. This is normally overridden only by the specific dialog implementation and not by the code that actually uses that dialog implementation.

Parameters:
form Form to create contents in
virtual void MIDIALOG::OnOK (  )  [protected, virtual]

Called when "OK" button is pressed.

Derived class must call superclass OnOK() method AFTER performing its own processing to properly close the dialog. If the dialog settings do not pass their associated validation test then an appropriate message should be displayed for the user and the superclass OnOK() method should not be called. This will cause the dialog to remain open and allow the user to correct the settings.

virtual void MIDIALOG::OnOpen (  )  [protected, virtual]

Called when dialog is opened after the dialog is actually "managed" and displayed.

Derived class must call superclass OnOpen() method BEFORE performing its own processing.

ERRVALUE MIDIALOG::Open (  ) 

Open dialog if created in modeless state.

void MIDIALOG::SetApplySensitive ( bool  sensitive  )  const [inline]

Set "Apply" (if exists) button sensitivity.

void MIDIALOG::SetupButtonApply ( BUTTONITEM bi  )  [protected]

Setup BUTTONITEM for "Apply" button.

void MIDIALOG::SetupButtonCancel ( BUTTONITEM bi  )  [protected]

Setup BUTTONITEM for Cancel button.

void MIDIALOG::SetupButtonClose ( BUTTONITEM bi  )  [protected]

Setup BUTTONITEM for Close button.

void MIDIALOG::SetupButtonOK ( BUTTONITEM bi  )  [protected]

Setup BUTTONITEM for "OK" button.
