SWT n Jface

[Sunil Aggarwal]

Hi All,

I have a created a wizard using Jface. One clicking on one of the buttons in the contents area(it is not the buttonBar button like NEXT etc), I display a TitleAreaDialog. Now my problem is that:

a.) For this TitleAreaDialog I have created a new Shell, is it okay for me to create a new Shell for this Dialog or I have a better option?

b.) I want that clicking on one button of the above mentioned TitleAreaDialog should display another TitleAreaDialog on top of it, is it possible to have one Dialog displayed over another? I dont think so but what other way can I do it?

Regards,
Neha

Hi Neha

With respect to your option b,

Yes you can have Dialog box over another dialog box. As i m using a JDialog as my front hand, and onclicking Delete button it confirm whether you want to delete transation or not. If i say "YES" then transaction is deleted.

Hope this would help you out.

here is test form for your option b. Compile and run it

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

import java.lang.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class test1 extends javax.swing.JDialog {
    
    /** Creates new form test1 */
    public test1(java.awt.Frame parent, boolean modal) {
        super(parent, modal);
        initComponents();
    }
    
    /** This method is called from within the constructor to
     * initialize the form.
     * WARNING: Do NOT modify this code. The content of this method is

    private void initComponents() {
        jButton1 = new javax.swing.JButton();
 
        getContentPane().setLayout(null);
 
        addWindowListener(new java.awt.event.WindowAdapter() {
            public void windowClosing(java.awt.event.WindowEvent evt) {
                closeDialog(evt);
            }
        });
 
        jButton1.setText("jButton1");
        jButton1.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
                jButton1ActionPerformed(evt);
            }
        });
 
        getContentPane().add(jButton1);
        jButton1.setBounds(130, 100, 88, 25);
 
        java.awt.Dimension screenSize = java.awt.Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();
        setBounds((screenSize.width-369)/2, (screenSize.height-251)/2, 369, 251);
    }
 
    private void jButton1ActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
        // Add your handling code here:

            JOptionPane.YES_NO_OPTION,
            JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
            
            if (i == JOptionPane.YES_OPTION) {
            
            }        
    }
    
    /** Closes the dialog */
    private void closeDialog(java.awt.event.WindowEvent evt) {
        setVisible(false);
        dispose();
    }
    
    /**
     * @param args the command line arguments
     */

        new test1(new javax.swing.JFrame(), true).show();
    }
    
    
    // Variables declaration - do not modify
    private javax.swing.JButton jButton1;
