Description

XmCreateMessageDialog is a convenience creation function that creates a DialogShell and an unmanaged MessageBox child of the DialogShell. A MessageDialog is used for common interaction tasks, which include giving information, asking questions, and reporting errors. It includes a symbol, a message, and three buttons. By default, there is no symbol. The default button labels are ``OK'', ``Cancel'', and ``Help''.

Use XtManageChild to pop up the MessageDialog (passing the MessageBox as the widget parameter); use XtUnmanageChild to pop it down.
