GUIDialogOK Missing? (1 Viewer)

[GF__74]

I have been going through the Plugin creation tutorial here. I am using VS2005 SP1 on a Vista (x86) machine, running MPv1

All was going well until i got to this bit of code.

private void OnButtonOne()
{
  GUIDialogOK dlg = (GUIDialogOK)GUIWindowManager.GetWindow(
    (int)GUIWindow.Window.WINDOW_DIALOG_OK);
  dlg.SetHeading("Button has been pressed");
  dlg.SetLine(1, "You pressed button 1");
  dlg.SetLine(2, String.Empty);
  dlg.SetLine(3, String.Empty);
  dlg.DoModal(GUIWindowManager.ActiveWindow);
}

I get the compile error

The type or namespace name 'GUIDialogOK' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

I am using the following as per the guide.

using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using MediaPortal.GUI.Library;

Now, i can only assume that proceedures in Core.Dll have changed since this guide was last updated, but i may be wrong.

Any ideas??

Thanks

Upon further investigation, it appears that they have moved these controls into a different dll (Dialogs.dll), but this file is not included within the precompiled release and i am having create problems compiling the differing dll from the source code.

Anyone know what i am supposed to do here.

Once i have sorted this i might have a go at editting that tutorial.

Thanks,

Hi there

Dialogs.dll should be in your plugin\windows directory.

I am sure i did a search for this, but i guess not.

I think i might update the documentation for the tutorial to reflect this.

Would be great if you can write down a few pointers/steps for the whole process.

thanks

I have updated the MediaPortal document (MediaPortal1_Development/PluginDevelopersGuide - MediaPortal Manual Documentation) for this tutorial so that it is consistent with MediaPortal v1.

The steps involving adding the reference for Dialogs.dll is now a lot clearer.
