Hi everybody,
The method below should pop up a Dialog for user input, convert it to a
number and return that number. The problem is that the VBox part of the
Dialog is always empty. Any hint?
public static ushort AskItemNumber (string wintitle, string itemname,
out bool valid)
// Open a modal dialog and ask for the number of 'itemname' items.
// Return this, or 0 if the user input is invalid.
{
Label lab;
Entry entry;
HBox hbox;
Dialog dialog;
ushort n;
lab = new Label ("Number of " + itemname + "?");
entry = new Entry (3);
hbox = new HBox (false, 6);
hbox.PackStart (lab);
hbox.PackStart (entry);
dialog = new Dialog (wintitle, null, DialogFlags.Modal);
dialog.VBox.PackStart (lab);
dialog.AddButton ("o.k.", ResponseType.Ok);
dialog.Run();
valid = true; n=0;//s.c.
try { n = Convert.ToUInt16(entry.Text);}
catch { valid = false; }
dialog.Destroy();
if (valid) return n; else return 0;
} // AskItemNumber
