SYNOPSIS

use Curses::UI;
my $cui = new Curses::UI;
my $win = $cui->add('window_id', 'Window');

# The hard way.
# -------------
my $dialog = $win->add(
    'mydialog', 'Dialog::Calendar'
);
$dialog->modalfocus;
$win->delete('mydialog');

DESCRIPTION

Curses::UI::Dialog::Calendar is a calendar dialog. This type of dialog can be used to select a date.

See exampes/demo-widgets in the distribution for a short demo.

OPTIONS

• -title < TEXT >

  Set the title of the dialog window to TEXT.

• -date < DATE >

  Set the date to start with to DATE. If -date is not defined, today will be used as the startdate.

METHODS

• new ( OPTIONS )

• layout ( )

• draw ( BOOLEAN )

• focus ( )

• modalfocus ( )

  These are standard methods. See Curses::UI::Container for an explanation of these.

• get ( )

  This method will return the date that was selected or undef if no date was selected.

SPECIAL BINDINGS

• escape

  This will invoke the cancel button, so the calendar dialog returns without selecting any date.
