The <em>Print</em> dialog will be +removed once we have finished our migration, since we will use +<a href="qprinter.html">TQPrinter</a> instead. Based on this information, we decide that it is not +worth replacing the <em>Print</em> dialog with a custom <a href="qdialog.html">TQDialog</a> replacement. +Instead, we will keep the <a href="motif-extension.html#Motif">Motif</a> based dialog and use <a href="qmotifdialog.html">TQMotifDialog</a> to +integrate the dialog with the application. +<p> <h2> Modality Retquirements +</h2> +<a name="1"></a><p> Modality with TQDialog is different from Motif. The <a href="qdialog.html#exec">TQDialog::exec</a>() +function does not return until the dialog is finished. In Motif, +modality is simply a property of the shell, and the application +programmer must write TQDialog::exec() style functionality if they +want that behavior. +<p> Since we will be using TQMotifDialog (which is a TQDialog subclass), we +will need to have an <em>accept</em> and a <em>reject</em> callback for each +dialog we integrate with TQMotifDialog. The predefined Motif dialogs +have these already: the <tt>XmNokCallback</tt> and <tt>XmNcancelCallback</tt> +callbacks. However, the <em>Print</em> dialog only has an <em>accept</em> callback +(the <tt>XmdNprintCallback</tt>), but it does not have a <em>reject</em> callback. +We need to add this. +<p> This is easily done. We add an <tt>XtCallbackList</tt> for the <tt>XmNcancelCallback</tt> callback in <tt>Xmd/PrintP.h</tt>: +<p> + +<pre></pre> +<p> We add the <tt>XmNcancelCallback</tt> callback to the list of resources for +the <tt>XmdPrint</tt> widget class in <tt>Xmd/Print.c</tt>: +<p> + +<pre></pre> +<p> We need to activate this callback whenever we unmanage the widget and +do not activate the <em>print</em> callback, which is in the <tt>do_help_cb()</tt> +function: +<p> <pre></pre> +<p> ... and in the unmanage_cb() function: +<p> <pre></pre> +<p> <h2> Integrating the <em>Print</em> Dialog +</h2> +<a name="2"></a><p> Now that the <em>Print</em> dialog has the appropriate <em>accept</em> and <em>reject</em> callbacks, we can use <a href="qmotifdialog.html">TQMotifDialog</a>. First we need to include +the TQMotifDialog header in <tt>todo.cpp</tt>. +<p> + +<p> <pre></pre> +<p> We add a <tt>ShowPrintDialog()</tt> function which will create and execute the +print dialog. +<p> <pre></pre> +<p> We change the <em>Print</em> menu item callback to call the new <tt>ShowPrintDialog()</tt> function. We pass the top-level <a href="qmotifwidget.html">TQMotifWidget</a>, which +we will use as the parent for the dialog. +<p> <pre></pre> +<p> The <tt>ShowPrintDialog()</tt> function creates the <em>Print</em> dialog and +executes it. We use the <tt>XmdNprintCallback</tt> callback to accept the +dialog and the <tt>XmNcancelCallback</tt> callback to reject the dialog. We +can do this easily by using the <a href="qmotifdialog.html#acceptCallback">TQMotifDialog::acceptCallback</a>() and +<a href="qmotifdialog.html#rejectCallback">TQMotifDialog::rejectCallback</a>() functions, respectively. We also +ensure that the <em>print</em> callback continues to call the <tt>Print()</tt> function as before. +<p> <pre></pre> +<p> After we build the project, the application runs and operates as +expected. There is no visual or behavioral difference, even though +the <em>Print</em> dialog is using <a href="qmotifdialog.html">TQMotifDialog</a>. +<p> [ <a href="motif-walkthrough-4.html">Previous: Using Custom TQDialogs</a> ] +[ <a href="motif-walkthrough.html">Home</a> ] +[ <a href="motif-walkthrough-6.html">Next: Using TQt Main Window Classes</a> ] +<p> +<!-- eof --> +<p><address><hr><div align=center> +<table width=100% cellspacing=0 border=0><tr> +<td>Copyright © 2007 +<a href="troll.html">Trolltech</a><td align=center><a href="trademarks.html">Trademarks</a> +<td align=right><div align=right>TQt 3.3.8</div> +</table></div></address></body> +</html> |
