Dialog Box [message #450889]

Originally posted by: pypatel.uci.edu

I was wondering if someone could help me create a dialog box that would not
allow a user to select the source shell without closes teh dialog shell.

I.e. say i had two shells, shell 1 is the main window and shell 2 is the
dialog

If shell 2 is opened, I don't want shell 1 to be accessible unless they
close shell two.

Is there a way to do this in SWT without using logic? If so, please advise.

Thanks in advance.

You could use the org.eclipse.jface.dialogs.Dialog class.
This opens up a modal dialog inside the parent shell.

Alternatively you can set the style of your shell to (SWT.DIALOG_TRIM |
SWT.APPLICATION_MODAL)

I wanted to stay away from using JFace, and it seems like the
APPLICATION_MODAL settings works. Thanks for your help!

Alternatively, you can pass the parent shell to the
child dialog in the constructor instead of the display instance. This
automatically creates a modal, DIALOG_TRIM shell and brings it to the
front.
