QInputDialog Class Reference
[QtGui module]

QString QInputDialog::getItem ( QWidget * parent, const QString & title, const QString & label, const QStringList & items, int current = 0, bool editable = true, bool * ok = 0, Qt::WindowFlags flags = 0 )   [static]

Static convenience function to let the user select an item from a string list.

title is the text which is displayed in the title bar of the dialog. label is the text which is shown to the user (it should say what should be entered). items is the string list which is inserted into the combobox. current is the number of the item which should be the current item.

If editable is true the user can enter their own text; otherwise the user may only select one of the existing items.

If ok is nonnull *a ok will be set to true if the user pressed OK and to false if the user pressed Cancel. The dialog's parent is parent. The dialog will be modal and uses the widget flags.

This function returns the text of the current item, or if editable is true, the current text of the combobox.

Use this static function like this:

     QStringList items;
     items << tr("Spring") << tr("Summer") << tr("Fall") << tr("Winter");

     bool ok;
     QString item = QInputDialog::getItem(this, tr("QInputDialog::getItem()"),
                                          tr("Season:"), items, 0, false, &ok);
     if (ok && !item.isEmpty())
         itemLabel->setText(item);

Warning: Do not delete parent during the execution of the dialog. If you want to do this, you should create the dialog yourself using one of the QInputDialog constructors.

See also getText(), getInt(), and getDouble().

     bool ok;
     QString text = QInputDialog::getText(this, tr("QInputDialog::getText()"),
                                          tr("User name:"), QLineEdit::Normal,
                                          QDir::home().dirName(), &ok);
     if (ok && !text.isEmpty())
         textLabel->setText(text);
