Alert box of ‘Question’ type
Javra IDE have some custom logic that has to be defined in the procedure file for Alert boxes. For Example, in Question type of alert box, a question is asked to the user and answer is used as user input for further execution. The logic for the same is:
p-action = “xe-dialog” + chr(2) + “” + chr(2) + “[xerrc]” .
Here :
–1st parameter(xe-dialog) triggers the dialog box
–2nd parameter(“”) : name of the dialog screen
–3rd parameter(” xerrc”): error code
- To create an alert box of Question type, go to X/E Files >X/E Master Files > Messages and create an alert message record choosing type ‘Question’. The image below shows the record created for the alert box of Question type with error code name ‘testmsg’.

- Include the p-action = “xe-dialog” + chr(2) + “” + chr(2) + “[xerrc]” code inside your procedure to trigger the alert box as shown below:


Note that f-getvalue(“xe-dialog-answer”) gives the logical value true/false based on user’s response on question. You can customize your logic as per user’s response of yes or no.
