Re: Alert Using Display

[Greg Brown]

I am trying to show an alert using the following line:
        Alert.alert( MessageType.INFO, "Loaded.",  display );

Where display is the Display passed to the applications startup  
method. The
applications Window hasn't been opened yet. The alert isn't displayed.

In this case should the alert be displayed?

I would think so. In fact, I just created an empty app to verify this,  
and it worked as expected. What happens when you run this app on your  
system?

package org.apache.pivot.wtk.test;

import org .apache.pivot.collections.Map;
import org.apache.pivot.wtk.Alert;
import org.apache.pivot.wtk.Application;
import org.apache.pivot.wtk.DesktopApplicationContext;
import org.apache.pivot.wtk.Display;
import org.apache.pivot.wtk.MessageType;

public class AlertTest implements Application {
    @Override
    public void startup(Display display, Map<String, String>  
properties) throws Exception {
        Alert.alert(MessageType.INFO, "Loaded.", display);
    }

    @Override
    public boolean shutdown(boolean optional) {
        return false;
    }

    @Override
    public void suspend() {
    }

    @Override
    public void resume() {
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        DesktopApplicationContext.main(AlertTest.class, args);
    }
}
