CTaskDialog::AddRadioButton

Adds a radio button to the CTaskDialog.

void CTaskDialog::AddRadioButton(
   int nRadioButtonID,
   const CString& strCaption,
   BOOL bEnabled = TRUE
);

Parameters

  • [in] nRadioButtonID
    The identification number of the radio button.

  • [in] strCaption
    The string that the CTaskDialog displays next to the radio button.

  • [in] bEnabled
    A Boolean parameter that indicates whether the radio button is enabled.

Remarks

The radio buttons for the CTaskDialog Class enable you to gather information from the user. Use the function CTaskDialog::GetSelectedRadioButtonID to determine which radio button is selected.

The CTaskDialog does not require that the nRadioButtonID parameters are unique for each radio button. However, you may experience unexpected behavior if you do not use a distinct identifier for each radio button.

Example

// TODO: Replace the strings below with the appropriate message,  
// main instruction, and dialog title
CString message("This is an important message to the user.");
CString mainInstruction("Important!\nPlease read!");
CString title("Alert Dialog");

CTaskDialog taskDialog(message, mainInstruction, title, 
    TDCBF_YES_BUTTON | TDCBF_NO_BUTTON | TDCBF_CANCEL_BUTTON );

taskDialog.AddRadioButton(201, L"First option");
taskDialog.AddRadioButton(202, L"Second option");
taskDialog.AddRadioButton(203, L"Third option");

taskDialog.DoModal();
int selection = taskDialog.GetSelectedRadioButtonID();

switch(selection)
{
case 201:
    // TODO: Place processing here for the first  
    // radio button. 
    break;

case 202:
    // TODO: Place processing here for the second  
    // radio button. 
    break;

case 203:
    // TODO: Place processing here for the third  
    // radio button. 
    break;

default:
    break;
}

// Remove all the radio buttons so that we can use the same task 
// dialog with new radio buttons.
taskDialog.RemoveAllRadioButtons();

taskDialog.AddRadioButton(301, L"New first option");
taskDialog.AddRadioButton(302, L"New second option");
taskDialog.AddRadioButton(303, 
    L"New third option should be disabled");

// Change the default radio button to the second option
taskDialog.SetDefaultRadioButton(302);

// Make sure the third option is disabled. 
if (taskDialog.IsRadioButtonEnabled(303))
{
    taskDialog.SetRadioButtonOptions(303, FALSE);
}

taskDialog.DoModal();
selection = taskDialog.GetSelectedRadioButtonID();

switch(taskDialog.GetSelectedRadioButtonID())
{
case 301:
    // TODO: Place processing here for new first  
    // command button control. 
    break;

case 302:
    // TODO: Place processing here for new second  
    // command button control. 
    break;

case 303:
    // TODO: Place processing here for the new third  
    // command button control. 
    break;

default:
    break;
}

// Remove all the radio button controls and add new ones from 
// the string table resource.
taskDialog.RemoveAllRadioButtons();
taskDialog.LoadRadioButtons(1001, 1005);
