PA_Alert



PA_Alert (message; WindowRef)

Parameter Type Description
message PA_Unichar* Message to display in the alert dialog box
WindowRef Long Link to windows that generates alert

Description

The routine PA_Alert displays an alert dialog box composed of a note icon, a message, and an OK button.

Pass the message to be displayed in message (Pascal or C strings up to 255 characters).

The new parameter is used on Macintosh to link the alert notification to the window that generates the alert. If you don't care or if the plugin only runs on windows, you can pass 0.

This is just like the ALERT command, but you cannot customize the title of the OK button. See the 4th Dimension Language reference for more information on this dialog box.

Example

Sample alert under MacOS (using Pascal strings):

   PA_Alert("\pHello world.";0);

Sample alert under Windows (using C strings):

   PA_Alert("Hello world.";0);
