Detailed Description

A system dialog box that asks a question.

Library: xviews or winviews or mviews (mutually exclusive)

This class builds a system dialog box that allows the user to respond yes or no to a question.

- An IlvQuestionDialog on a Windows platform -

This class is dependent on the standard toolkit used in conjunction with Rogue Wave Views. It can be used only if you link your final application with the system toolkit supported by Rogue Wave Views (on Unix platforms, you must use the library libmviews instead of libxviews and link with the Motif library). If you do not want to use these libraries, you can use IlvIQuestionDialog; this dialog box class is built on Rogue Wave Views gadgets only and does not depend on the system toolkit.
