Function
Summary

The function confirm-yes-or-no pops up a dialog button containing a message and a Yes and No button.

Package

capi

Signature

confirm-yes-or-no format-string &rest format-args

Description

This pops up a dialog box containing a message and the buttons Yes and No , returns t when the Yes button is clicked, and nil when the No button is clicked. The message is obtained by applying the format-string and the format-args to the Common Lisp function format .

This function is actually a convenient version of prompt-for-confirmation, but has the disadvantage that you cannot specify any customization arguments. For more flexibility, use prompt-for-confirmation itself.

Example
(setq pane (capi:contain
             (make-instance 'capi:text-input-pane)
                            :title "Test Interface"))
(when (capi:confirm-yes-or-no "Close ~S?" pane)
  (capi:apply-in-pane-process 
   pane 'capi:quit-interface pane))
