int dialog_ExtensionUpdate ( vlc_object_t obj,
extension_dialog_t dialog 
)
static vlc_object_t* dialog_GetProvider ( vlc_object_t obj  )  [static]
void dialog_Login ( vlc_object_t obj,
char **  username,
char **  password,
const char *  title,
const char *  fmt,
  ... 
)

Requests a username and password through the user interface.

Parameters:
obj the VLC object requesting credential information
username a pointer to the specified username [OUT]
password a pointer to the specified password [OUT]
title title for the dialog
text format string for the message in the dialog
Returns:
Nothing. If a user name resp. a password was specified, it will be returned as a heap-allocated character array into the username resp password pointer. Those must be freed with free(). Otherwise *username resp *password will be NULL.

int dialog_Question ( vlc_object_t obj,
const char *  title,
const char *  text,
const char *  yes,
const char *  no,
const char *  cancel 
)

Asks a total (Yes/No/Cancel) question through the user interface.

Parameters:
obj VLC object emitting the question
title dialog box title
text dialog box text
yes first choice/button text
no second choice/button text
cancel third answer/button text, or NULL if no third option
Returns:
0 if the user could not answer the question (e.g. there is no UI), 1, 2 resp. 3 if the user pressed the first, second resp. third button.

int dialog_Register ( vlc_object_t obj  ) 

Registers an object as the dialog provider.

It is assumed that the appropriate variable callbacks are already registered.

References libvlc_priv(), libvlc_priv_t::p_dialog_provider, provider_lock, vlc_mutex_lock(), and vlc_mutex_unlock().

int dialog_Unregister ( vlc_object_t obj  ) 

Unregisters the dialog provider.

Note that unless you have unregistered the callbacks already, the provider might still be in use by other threads. Also, you need to cancel all pending dialogs yourself.

References libvlc_priv(), libvlc_priv_t::p_dialog_provider, provider_lock, vlc_mutex_lock(), and vlc_mutex_unlock().

void dialog_VFatal ( vlc_object_t obj,
bool  modal,
const char *  title,
const char *  fmt,
va_list  ap 
)

Sends an error message through the user interface (if any).

Parameters:
obj the VLC object emitting the error
modal whether to wait for user to acknowledge the error before returning control to the caller
title title of the error dialog
fmt format string for the error message
ap parameters list for the formatted error message
