Confirm Dialog box ?

[ady_bavarezu89]

Hey ! I have a program where I want to ask the user if he wants to delete his account..for that I want to use a confirm dialog box, but I'm not exactly sure how I should handle the options...something like if yes is pressed do that, if no is pressed do that .

int no  = JOptionPane.NO_OPTION;
int yes = JOptionPane.YES_OPTION;

JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null, "Do you really want to delete your account ?");

But how exactly do I verify if yes or no is pressed ?

Did you read the API? Check out the value returned from that method.

try int response = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null, "Do you really want to delete your account ?");
if (response == JOptionPane.YES_OPTION)
{

woops i hit the wrong button and it cut my post, but still you get the idea :D

'd3n1s', stop spoonfeeding and thus depriving others of a learning opportunity. Thanks.

dude he was almost there, might as well complete it...

I don't think posting always the links of those tutorials is a better help....I always go through them and I can't understand a thing...(it's just my opinion but they are really bad - I never found something useful)....if you have never done this kind of things, how can you learn them? He showed me the code, so that next time I know how it's done....so thanks again 'd3n1s'....maybe it's not right to ask for the code, but at least if you know the answer and want to help me, you could give me some little hints (again, not those links)...

He read the tutorial, he did his homework. Sometimes you just need to see an example of it plugged into a working program to fully understand it.

Are you even aware how much sample code is present and linked from those tutorials?

Of course i am, a simple google search is very often all i've ever needed. Some people just come here first. I saw his question, i knew the answer and i answered it. It's not like i gave him his finished program it was like 3 lines of code dude. Chill out

[ady_bavarezu89]

sorry 'd3n1s' for getting you into trouble....and mr. DarrylBurke, while the code might be simple to you, it isn't that simple to me...I bet you've got tons of experience, but I ain't yet...I wonder if you, in your first java programming years, could understand all that without any help at all.

I wonder if you, in your first java programming years, could understand all that without any help at all.

When I started programming there was no internet; I had to study books and learn from them (and the cryptic mumbling of my professors). It forced me to read and I can say that it pays back: I can manage to find and understand stuff on my own. If you're spoonfed you don't really learn and it makes you lazy; but I guess that's what it's all about with the 'google generation': they want instant response without putting in any effort themselves.

kind regards,
