Creating Your Own Dialog Box
To create your own dialog box, follow the steps below:
1. Design the visual representation of the panel.
This step includes several aspects such as choosing which gadgets to use, how the focus is managed, or how gadgets will behave when the dialog is resized. This phase can be achieved by using Rogue Wave® Views Studio.
2. Display your panel in a dialog box.
You can either use the generated code of Rogue Wave Views Studio (For details, see
Using the Generated Code), or directly use the
IlvDialog class. The constructors of
IlvDialog provide a facility to pass a file name as a parameter.
The class
IlvDialog has already two registered callbacks:
apply: This callback invokes the virtual
IlvDialog::apply method.
cancel: This callback invokes the virtual
IlvDialog::cancel method.
You can, for example, have two buttons in your dialog box, one with the callback set to “apply” and the other set to “cancel”.
