Open a custom modal dialog in a java based packer plugin

[tmalatinszki]

Hi,

I have a packer plugin written in Java, which is dealing with special files that requires a passphrase during pack/unpack operations. For packing the files I have implemented the packFiles() method, and I would like to open a modal window with one simple inputbox in the very beginning of it, where the user can set the passphrase (I would like to do the same in case of openArchive() method).

How is there any idea how would it be possible (via SWT/Swing or any "native" way)?

Regards,

Have you tried to return PK_CAPS_ENCRYPT flag in GetPackerCaps function and to define PkSetCryptCallback function that TC will call in order to pass PkCryptProc callback function? Maybe PkCryptProc allows asking for a password?

PkCryptProc is meant to store a password in TC secure password store. You can just show your own dialog, like for example the 7zip plugin does.
