Openerp Message Output Dialog Box

How can I show a message box in openerp? I used the raise like this:

raise osv.except_osv(_("Warning!"), _("Error"))

But this stops other code from executing, I only want to display the info field.

Raising osv.except_osv

does a few things:

1) Aborts the current processing (this is a python exception after all).

2) Forces OpenERP to rollback the current database transaction.

3) Calls OpenERP to display a dialog box to the user, not to flush the stack trace and present a "bad incident" message to the user.

For information exchange, we may return

warning = {
        'title': 'Warning!',
        'message' : 'Your message.'
    }
return {'warning': warning}


But that won't work for other things like a button.

In your case, you can do

cr.commit()  
raise osv.except_osv(_("Warning!"), _("Error"))

But calling cr.commit

explicitly in a business transaction will lead to serious problems.

Another way is to return the wizard with a warning message. This is what most people have used.

return {
            'name': 'Provide your popup window name',
            'view_type': 'form',
            'view_mode': 'form',
            'view_id': [res and res[1] or False],
            'res_model': 'your.popup.model.name',
            'context': "{}",
            'type': 'ir.actions.act_window',
            'nodestroy': True,
            'target': 'new',
            'res_id': record_id  or False,##please replace record_id and provide the id of the record to be opened 
        }

One way comes to my mind ... you could use a method on_change

that would return a dict like this:



return {
        'warning': {
              'title':'Message title!',
              'message':'Your message text goes here!'
               }
        }
