I had the same problems in 8.5, and I double checked the Xtra version, and
it is the MX xtra. Here's the code I'm using to build the dialog box. It
works fine on Windows:
gMUI=0
gMUI=xtra("MUI").new()
lwindow=gMUI.GetWindowPropList()
lwindow.name="Programs"
lwindow.callback="chooseProgramCallback"
lwindow.mode=#Data
lwindow.xPosition=-1
lwindow.yPosition=-1
lwindow.width=300
lwindow.height=150
lwindow.closebox=true
--
litem1=gMUI.GetItemPropList()
litem1.type=#windowBegin
--
litem2=gMUI.GetItemPropList()
litem2.type=#groupVBegin
--
litem3=gMUI.GetItemPropList()
litem3.type=#label
litem3.value="Choose a program:"
--
litem4=gMUI.GetItemPropList()
litem4.type=#PopupList
LProgramList=gProgramList.duplicate()
LProgramList.addAt(1, " ")
litem4.attributes=[#popupStyle:[#normal], #valueList:LProgramList,
#layoutStyle:[#centerH]]
litem4.value=LProgramList[1]
litem4.title="programListPopup"
--
litem45=gMUI.GetItemPropList()
litem45.type=#groupHBegin
--
litem5=gMUI.GetItemPropList()
litem5.type=#defaultPushButton
litem5.title="OK"
--
litem53=gMUI.GetItemPropList()
litem53.type=#pushButton
litem53.title="Cancel"
--
litem57=gMUI.GetItemPropList()
litem57.type=#groupHEnd
--
litem6=gMUI.GetItemPropList()
litem6.type=#groupVEnd
--
litem7=gMUI.GetItemPropList()
litem7.type=#windowEnd
--
ldialogItems=[litem1, litem2, litem3, litem4, litem45, litem5, litem53,
litem57, litem6, litem7]
--
gMUI.initialize([#windowPropList : lwindow , #windowItemList :
ldialogItems])
gMUI.run()
gMUI=0
I've run the debugger and can see that the Xtra appears to be instantiating
itself, but that's as much as I can tell. The initialize() and run()
functions fail silently.
