wxPasswordEntryDialog(3)

💖 NAME 💖

ok so bestie, wxPasswordEntryDialog — this is a class that pops up a dialog and asks the user for a one-line password string. that's it, that's the whole job. secret little text box, main character energy. 🔐✨

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

it's implemented as a generic wxWidgets dialog, no cap. 🦋

See: Overview cmndlg

ok and since it's giving derived-class realness, it can also use functions from all of these ancestors, so keep that in mind bestie:

• wxTextEntryDialog
• wxDialog
• wxTopLevelWindow
• wxWindow
• wxEvtHandler

wxWidgets docs: wxPasswordEntryDialog

🧚 new(Parent, Message, [Option]) -> wxPasswordEntryDialog()

    Option ::
        {caption, unicode:chardata()} |
        {value, unicode:chardata()} |
        {style, integer()} |
        {pos, {X :: integer(), Y :: integer()}}.

Constructor. the lil baby-making function for your dialog 🌱💖

here's the rundown on the args:

• Parent — a wxWindow:wxWindow(), your parent window obvs
• Message — unicode:chardata(), the prompt text the user sees
• Option — a list of optional extras, and the options are:
  • {caption, unicode:chardata()}
  • {value, unicode:chardata()}
  • {style, integer()}
  • {pos, {X :: integer(), Y :: integer()}}

and bestie, use wxDialog:showModal/1 to actually show the dialog. it does not just appear out of thin air, you gotta call it. periodt. 💀
