Occasionally my SWT application must launch a dialog to get more information from the user. If the user clicks the "X" in the upper right corner, the program crashes because it is expecting that information and dosen't know what to do when the dialog window is diposed.

Is there any way of disabling the OS created Close, Minimize, and Maximize buttons in SWT?

you can make the 'x' do nothing:

(Toggle Plain Text)

setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE);

others include:

(Toggle Plain Text)

JFrame.HIDE_ON_CLOSE //hide window, keep program running
JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE //destroy window, keep program running
JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE //close program and window

Are you sure that works for SWT? I'm not using Swing.

I tried adding that to the Shell for my dialog (see below), but it's not a valid method.

(Toggle Plain Text)

dialogShell.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOS E);
