SYNOPSIS

18           use Curses::UI;
19           my $cui = new Curses::UI;
20           my $win = $cui->add('window_id', 'Window');
21
22           # The hard way.
23           # -------------
24           my $dialog = $win->add(
25               'mydialog', 'Dialog::Status',
26           -message   => 'Hello, world!',
27           );
28
29           $dialog->draw();
30
31           $win->delete('mydialog');
32
33           # The easy way (see Curses::UI documentation).
34           # --------------------------------------------
35           $cui->status( -message => 'Some message' );
36
37           # or even:
38           $cui->status( 'Some message' );
39
40           $cui->nostatus;

DESCRIPTION

43       Curses::UI::Dialog::Status is not really a dialog, since the user has
44       no way of interacting with it. It is merely a way of presenting status
45       information to the user of your program.
46
47       See exampes/demo-Curses::UI::Dialog::Status in the distribution for a
48       short demo.
49

OPTIONS

51       •   -title < TEXT >
52
53           Set the title of the dialog window to TEXT.
54
55       •   -message < TEXT >
56
57           This option sets the initial message to show to TEXT.
58

METHODS

60       •   new ( OPTIONS )
61
62       •   layout ( )
63
64       •   draw ( BOOLEAN )
65
66           These are standard methods. See Curses::UI::Container for an
67           explanation of these.
68
69       •   message ( TEXT )
70
71           This method will update the message of the status dialog to TEXT.
72           For this update to show, you will have to call the draw method of
73           the progress dialog.
