I used Symantec's Visual Cafe and I created a PasswordDialog (a Modal
Dialog with 2 textfields: login and password. Visual Cafe contains 2
classes, which it uses for creating PasswordDialogs: ModalDialog and
DialogBox. DialogBox contains the following:
-----------------------
import java.awt.Button;
import java.awt.Event;
import java.awt.Frame;
import java.awt.Dialog;
import java.awt.Rectangle;
public class DialogBox extends Dialog
{
public DialogBox(Frame f,String s,boolean modal)
{
super(f,s,modal);
setResizable(false);
}
public synchronized void show()
{
Rectangle bounds = getParent().bounds();
Rectangle abounds = bounds();
move(abounds.width,abounds.height);
super.show();
}
...
------------------------
and DialogBox, which is DialogBox's subclass, contains the following:
------------------------
import java.awt.Frame;
public class ModalDialog extends DialogBox
{
public ModalDialog(Frame f,String s)
{
super(f,s,true);
}
}
------------------------ That's all for ModalDialog.java
You can create any class "AnyDialog.java" which extends ModalDialog.java
and will be modal. Your applet should create an AnyDialog's instance.
