The following constants are defined for specifying buttons, and can be or'ed to provide multiple choices: BTN_OK BTN_YES BTN_NO BTN_CANCEL BTN_HELP The buttons will always be displayed in the order shown above, and is not modifiable. The remaining optional arguments are the desired colours for the foreground, background, and caption colour, respectively. The return value of the dialog will be the index value of the chosen button, as one would normally recieve from the Curses::Widgets::ButtonSet widget. This function can handle multi-line messages with embedded newlines, as long as the number of lines doesn't cause the dialog to be too large to display as a whole on the screen. It uses the textwrap function from Curses::Widgets to split lines longer than the screen according to whitespace. =cut sub dialog { my $title = shift; my $buttons = shift; my $message = shift; my ($fg, $bg, $cfg) = @_; my ($form, @lines, @buttons, $max); my ($cols, $lines, $bx, $by); # Build array of buttons to display push(@buttons, 'OK') if $buttons & BTN_OK; push(@buttons, 'Yes') if $buttons & BTN_YES; push(@buttons, 'No') if $buttons & BTN_NO; push(@buttons, 'Cancel') if $buttons & BTN_CANCEL; push(@buttons, 'Help') if $buttons & BTN_HELP; unless (@buttons) { carp "dialog: No buttons specified for dialog!"; return 0; } # Calculate the necessary dimensions of the message box, based # on both the button(s) and the length of the message. $max = 10 * @buttons + 2 * $#buttons; @lines = textwrap($message, $COLS - 4); foreach (@lines) { $max = length($_) if length($_) > $max }; # Calculate cols and lines $cols = $max; $lines = @lines + 3; # Exit if the geometry exceeds the display unless ($cols + 2 < $COLS && $lines + 2 < $LINES) { carp "dialog: Calculated geometry exceeds display geometry!"; return 0; } # Calculate upper-left corner of the buttons $bx = 10 * @buttons + 2 * $#buttons; $bx = int(($cols - $bx) / 2); $by = $lines - 3; local *btnexit = sub { my $f = shift; my $key = shift; return unless $key eq "\n"; $f->setField(EXIT => 1); }; $form = Curses::Forms->new({ AUTOCENTER => 1, DERIVED => 0, COLUMNS => $cols, LINES => $lines, CAPTION => $title, CAPTIONCOL => $cfg, BORDER => 1, FOREGROUND => $fg, BACKGROUND => $bg, FOCUSED => 'Buttons', TABORDER => ['Buttons'], WIDGETS => { Buttons => { TYPE => 'ButtonSet', LABELS => [@buttons], Y => $by, X => $bx, FOREGROUND => $fg, BACKGROUND => $bg, BORDER => 1, OnExit => *btnexit, }, Label => { TYPE => 'Label', Y => 0, X => 0, COLUMNS => $max, LINES => scalar @lines, VALUE => $message, FOREGROUND => $fg, BACKGROUND => $bg, }, }, }); $form->execute; return $form->getWidget('Buttons')->getField('VALUE'); } 1; =head1 HISTORY =over =item 2002/10/10 -- Rewritten in OO form. =back =head1 AUTHOR/COPYRIGHT (c) 2001 Arthur Corliss (corliss@digitalmages.com) =cut
