MESSAGE_BOX
is a Visual Foxpro function and class library that replaces the native
MessageBox() function in Foxpro. There are two potential uses for
this product. First, the ability to modify the appearance of
messageboxes. Using MESSAGE_BOX
and the included wizard application, a developer can easily design his or
her own messagebox dialogs by creating the appropriate button group to be
displayed and then specifying icons (other than the VFP/Windows defaults -
question mark, exclamation mark, information icon, and stop sign).
Second, MESSAGE_BOX exposes a timeout feature for the occasions when a
user response is not critical to the completion of a process. Rather
than suspending a process until a user response is received, the developer
can specify a timeout period (in seconds). When this timeout period
is reached without a user response, MESSAGE_BOX
returns the value that corresponds to the default button of the dialog
box.
Because the object that is displayed by MESSAGE_BOX
is based on a Form, the developer also has the option of defining an
optional icon (cIcon parameter) that will appear in the upper left corner
of the displayed dialog. |
