fxruby users - Jul 2009 - GUI Message Box

Hi all,
I hope this is not to silly a question. I have a GUI which simpily allows the
user to point to a few files and folders then click a Run button. Upon
completion of the backend processing the user is then presented with a
FXMessageBox giving an information message and the user can click on OK. By
clicking Ok the original GUI is still sitting in the background and has to be
terminated by the user also. I was wondering is there a way that when the
FXMessageBox pops up and the user clicks Ok, can it kill the popup GUI and the
original GUI in the same way FXApp::ID_QUIT works FXMenuCommand.
I hope this makes sense
Many thanks
Stuart

When the FXMessageBox returns from execute() with MBOX_OK, you''re code
should just close()
the main window, or sent the main window an ID_CLOSE message, which has the same
effect.

If you don''t want to terminate, then you can hide() the main window,
because if you close()
a FXTopWindow, FXApp is sent an ID_QUIT if no other top windows remain.

So if you didn''t actually want to stop the program then its best to
simply hide() the window.
