Are you using swing or swt? I would strongly recommend swt, since it is
accessible right out of the box on Linux, Mac and Windows. there are
also small programs called Snippets and longer examples that you can
use. We are using SWT for BrailleBlaster precisely because of its
inherent accessibility. One of our testers was surprised that the
prototype worked without the Java Access Bridge or any screenreader
scripts. For small snippet programs demonstrating various things, to to

Hi all,
I'm fairly new to java though I think I've got a fair grounding.
However, I am running into problems with dialog boxes. I've been using
someone else's libraries to create dialog boxes and that's fair enough.
However, when it comes to creating my own I will not be able to use
someone else's as their software is copyrighted. So what I'm struggling
with is the code to create my own.
Thus far I've been using a static method or methods of a class that is
copyrighted to make a request, request with supplied default answer,
confirm and alert.
I've searched and searched for examples of created dialog boxes but to
no avail. So, could anyone assist me. If you could supply a project
folder with the classes inside which would allow me to create the
appropriate dialog box with a simple invocation of a static method, that
would be great. If you could also give me a little guidance as to how
to use the dialogs, just in case that would be excellent.
I've been stuck with this for weeks and am now confounded as to what to
do.
Many thanks
roger
