API:CreateWindow

UI Lua API · Interface functions
Version: WAR 1.4.8

Creates a top-level window from the window definition of the same name.

CreateWindow(windowName, show)

Arguments

windowName: string – Name of a window defined in a loaded XML file. The new window gets the same name.
show: boolean – true to show the window at once, false to create it hidden.

Nothing.

The window is created as a child of the root window. To create a window with a different name or under another parent, use CreateWindowFromTemplate.
If a window with this name already exists, it is not created again and an error is logged. The exception is a window that is waiting for a deferred DestroyWindow: it is taken off the destroy list and kept, and its showing flag is set to show.
If no definition with this name exists, the error ERROR: Unable to create window: %s is logged.
show must be a real boolean. Passing nil or a number raises an Invalid Parameters error.
The function needs at least two arguments and only reads the last two.
Use DoesWindowExist to check first if the window may already exist.

These are written to the UI log; the call returns normally.

From easystem_dialogmanager/source/dialogmanager.lua:

CreateWindow( "OneButtonDlg"..dlg, false )
