public class PanelDialog

extends javax.swing.JDialog

This class is a modal dialog box that contains an arbitrary panel. It can be used, for example, to put an instance of Query in a top-level dialog box. The general way to use this class is to create the panel that you wish to have contained in the dialog. Then pass that panel to the constructor of this class. The dialog is modal, so the statement that creates the dialog will not return until the user dismisses the dialog. The method changesAccepted() can then be called to find out whether the user clicked the OK button or the Cancel button. Then you can access the panel to determine what values were set by the user.
