user interface

leongec

 hi all, i have a problem

I need to create a GUI to let user input some value for me, and then i need to grep the user input data and save it into a file. The following is the example of the prompted GUI i referred to (from user guide)

someInt = hiCreateIntField(
?name 'numScoops
?prompt "Number of scoops (0..5)"
?value 2
?defValue 1
?range '(0 5) )

hiCreateAppForm( ?name 'iceCreamForm
?formTitle "Ice Cream"
?callback "buildIceCreamCone()"
?fields list( someInt )
?help "cream" )

status = hiDisplayForm( iceCreamForm )

 

1. I dont understand the call back, from the example above, it will go to the funtion " buildIceCreamCone()" after i click ok?

2. how can grep the user input data ? 

3. can i use outfile to save it to a file? as this script i will save in .il , and for my understanding, the outfile should be use in .ocn file, is there anything wrong with my concept?

Please advice me! thank you
