10 | @class wxMessageDialog | |
7c913512 | 11 | |
23324ae1 FM |
12 | This class represents a dialog that shows a single or multi-line message, |
13 | with a choice of OK, Yes, No and Cancel buttons. | |
7c913512 | 14 | |
11dd61cb FM |
15 | @beginStyleTable |
16 | @style{wxOK} | |
17 | Puts an Ok button in the message box. May be combined with @c wxCANCEL. | |
18 | @style{wxCANCEL} | |
19 | Puts a Cancel button in the message box. Must be combined with | |
20 | either @c wxOK or @c wxYES_NO. | |
21 | @style{wxYES_NO} | |
8bd410eb VZ |
22 | Puts Yes and No buttons in the message box. It is recommended to always |
23 | use @c wxCANCEL with this style as otherwise the message box won't have | |
24 | a close button under wxMSW and the user will be forced to answer it. | |
11dd61cb FM |
25 | @style{wxNO_DEFAULT} |
26 | Makes the "No" button default, can only be used with @c wxYES_NO. | |
27 | @style{wxCANCEL_DEFAULT} | |
28 | Makes the "Cancel" button default, can only be used with @c wxCANCEL | |
29 | @style{wxYES_DEFAULT} | |
30 | Makes the "Yes" button default, this is the default behaviour and | |
31 | this flag exists solely for symmetry with @c wxNO_DEFAULT. | |
32 | @style{wxOK_DEFAULT} | |
33 | Makes the "OK" button default, this is the default behaviour and | |
34 | this flag exists solely for symmetry with @c wxCANCEL_DEFAULT. | |
7e3204b4 VZ |
35 | @style{wxICON_NONE} |
36 | Displays no icon in the dialog if possible (an icon might still be | |
37 | displayed if the current platform mandates its use). This style may be | |
38 | used to prevent the dialog from using the default icon based on @c | |
39 | wxYES_NO presence as explained in @c wxICON_QUESTION and @c | |
40 | wxICON_INFORMATION documentation below. | |
11dd61cb | 41 | @style{wxICON_EXCLAMATION} |
7e3204b4 | 42 | Displays an exclamation, or warning, icon in the dialog. |
11dd61cb | 43 | @style{wxICON_ERROR} |
7e3204b4 | 44 | Displays an error icon in the dialog. |
11dd61cb FM |
45 | @style{wxICON_HAND} |
46 | Displays an error symbol, this is a MSW-inspired synonym for @c wxICON_ERROR. | |
47 | @style{wxICON_QUESTION} | |
48 | Displays a question mark symbol. This icon is automatically used | |
49 | with @c wxYES_NO so it's usually unnecessary to specify it explicitly. | |
50 | @style{wxICON_INFORMATION} | |
51 | Displays an information symbol. This icon is used by default if | |
52 | @c wxYES_NO is not given so it is usually unnecessary to specify it | |
53 | explicitly. | |
54 | @style{wxSTAY_ON_TOP} | |
4566dcbe VZ |
55 | Makes the message box stay on top of all other windows and not only |
56 | just its parent (currently implemented only under MSW and GTK). | |
7981d340 VZ |
57 | @style{wxCENTRE} |
58 | Centre the message box on its parent or on the screen if parent is not | |
59 | specified (currently only implemented under MSW). | |

151 | The arguments of this function can be either strings or one of the |
152 | standard identifiers, such as @c wxID_APPLY or @c wxID_OPEN. Notice | |
153 | that even if the label is specified as an identifier, the return value | |
154 | of the dialog ShowModal() method still remains one of @c wxID_OK, @c | |
155 | wxID_CANCEL, @c wxID_YES or @c wxID_NO values, i.e. this identifier | |
156 | changes only the label appearance but not the return code generated by | |
157 | the button. It is possible to mix stock identifiers and string labels | |
158 | in the same function call, for example: | |
159 | @code | |
160 | wxMessageDialog dlg(...); | |
161 | dlg.SetYesNoLabels(wxID_SAVE, _("&Don't save")); | |
162 | @endcode | |
163 | ||
164 | Also notice that this function is not currently available on all | |
165 | platforms (although as of wxWidgets 2.9.0 it is implemented in all | |
166 | major ports), so it may return @false to indicate that the labels | |
461cd115 VZ |
167 | couldn't be changed. If it returns @true, the labels were set |
168 | successfully. | |
169 | ||
170 | Typically, if the function was used successfully, the main dialog | |
171 | message may need to be changed, e.g.: | |
8ad89211 VZ |
172 | @code |
173 | wxMessageDialog dlg(...); | |
174 | if ( dlg.SetYesNoLabels(_("&Quit"), _("&Don't quit")) ) | |
175 | dlg.SetMessage(_("What do you want to do?")); | |
176 | else // buttons have standard "Yes"/"No" values, so rephrase the question | |
177 | dlg.SetMessage(_("Do you really want to quit?")); | |

203 | Show a general purpose message dialog. |
204 | ||
205 | This is a convenient function which is usually used instead of using | |
206 | wxMessageDialog directly. Notice however that some of the features, such as | |
207 | extended text and custom labels for the message box buttons, are not | |
208 | provided by this function but only by wxMessageDialog. | |
209 | ||
210 | The return value is one of: @c wxYES, @c wxNO, @c wxCANCEL or @c wxOK | |
211 | (notice that this return value is @b different from the return value of | |
212 | wxMessageDialog::ShowModal()). | |
4cc4bfaf | 213 | |
8ad89211 | 214 | For example: |
23324ae1 | 215 | @code |
ba2874ff BP |
216 | int answer = wxMessageBox("Quit program?", "Confirm", |
217 | wxYES_NO | wxCANCEL, main_frame); | |

219 | main_frame->Close(); | |
23324ae1 | 220 | @endcode |
7c913512 | 221 | |

222 | @a message may contain newline characters, in which case the message will |
223 | be split into separate lines, to cater for large messages. | |
