Hi,

that depends on what you mean by popup check box. Did you use any JFace
viewer or plain SWT?

In the SWT case
button.getSelection() should do the job.

Hi,

well I have no exact idea what you mean by popup check box?

First of all, JFace provides some basic Dialog classes. After displaying
a Dialog with dialog.open() you can test the return value for OK or
Cancel. Just have a look at the API Documentation (package
org.eclipse.jface.dialogs)

Second for example the JFace TreeViewer has a checkbox version but I
dont know if tha s useful for you. There is a method
checkboxTreeViewer.getCheckedElements returning an Object[] containing
the checked elements.

Regards
Jan

Hi Vindhyalesh,

let me put it clear:
On the action you want a dialog to popup that contains a certain number
checkboxes representing your options. Correct?

You should read the API for org.eclipse.jface.dialogs.Dialog.

Extend Dialog class.
Implement createContents(Composite parent) and place the Buttons and
Labels on the parent composite.

Add a method getSelectedOptions() that calls getSelection on the
checkboxes and returns whatever you need to know the selected options.

In the Action:
int result = dialog.open();
if (result == Dialog.OK){
dialog.getSelectedOptions()
//Your code
}

Regards,
Jan
