# ----------------------------------------------------------------------
# Implements the post and unpost behavior of a Modal Dialog.
#
# For now the point behind this is to control calling 
# ide_grab_support.  If you call disable all the windows of an
# application but one, destroy that window, THEN re-enable the
# windows, Windows brings the last enabled window in the last
# active application to the foreground (Doh!).
#
# ----------------------------------------------------------------------

itcl::class ModalDialog {
  # This is the variable we vwait on when the dialog is posted.  
  # It is set to 1 in the unpost method, and to -1 in the destructor.
  
  private variable unpost_notification 0

  destructor {
    debug "  UNPOST $this"
    set unpost_notification -1
  }

  # ------------------------------------------------------------------
  #  METHOD:  unpost - unposts the dialog box...
  # ------------------------------------------------------------------
  public method unpost {} {
    after idle [list set [scope unpost_notification] 1]
  }

  # ------------------------------------------------------------------
  #  METHOD:  cancel - This just unposts the dialog box...
  #           If you want to programatically cancel a dialog
  #           selection, for instance if the app is going away
  #           use this rather than unpost.  That way a sub-class
  #           that actually has to do some work can override it.

  #  METHOD:  post - posts the dialog box...
