Displays a custom message in a non-blocking system warning window.
Example of a warning message
Remarks:
  • This is a non-blocking warning window. The WLanguage code that follows the call to WarningAsynchronous continues to run. To close the window, the user must click the OK button to validate. When the user clicks "OK", the code of a WLanguage procedure can be run.
  • In the WLanguage code following the call to the function, another modal window cannot be opened before closing the dialog box.
Example
DelayBeforeClosing(20 s)
NextTitle("Caution")
WarningAsynchronous("This action could not be validated" + ...
CR + "Contact the application manager", Procedure_ValidationOK)

INTERNAL PROCEDURE Procedure_ValidationOK()
ToastDisplay("Reminder: Action not validated")
END

ExecuteProcess(BTN_Next, trtClick)
Syntax
WarningAsynchronous(<Text> [, <WLanguage procedure>])
<Text>: Character string
Text to display.
<WLanguage procedure>: Optional name of procedure or lambda procedure
Name of the WLanguage procedure ("callback") called when the user clicks "OK" in the warning window.
This WLanguage procedure can correspond to:
  • a name of a global procedure,
  • a name of an internal procedure,
  • a lambda procedure.
If this parameter is not specified, no procedure is run when the user clicks "OK" in the warning window.
Remarks

Features of the dialog box

  • The title of the dialog box corresponds to the title of the current window (or page).
  • To modify or define the title of dialog box, use NextTitle.
  • The message is aligned to the left.
  • The button caption depends on the runtime language of Windows.
  • The maximum number of characters cannot exceed 4096. If a larger string is passed as parameter, it will be truncated.
  • The icon displayed (exclamation mark in yellow triangle) cannot be modified.

Line break in the dialog box

The CR string (Carriage Return) can be used to force a break to the next line. For example:
WarningAsynchronous("The XXX form was modified." + CR + ...
"Any new modification must be validated.")
You also have the ability to use the syntax of multiline strings. For example:
WarningAsynchronous(
[
This operation was not validated.
 
Contact the application provider.
])

Miscellaneous

  • Timers (TimerSys) are not stopped when this function is called.
  • The caption of the button is displayed in the language used by Windows on the current computer.
