[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Re: notification sound

["Grant Gayed" <grant_gayed@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Windows probably thinks that the silent dialogs are just normal shells, not
Question or Error dialogs.  The only way to create these specific-purpose
dialogs is with MessageDialog.  I did a quick test on win2000 and found the
Windows sounds that are played for each MessageDialog style:

SWT.ICON_WARNING: Exclamation
SWT.ICON_QUESTION: Question
SWT.ICON_INFORMATION and SWT.ICON_WARNING: Asterisk
SWT.ICON_ERROR: Critical Stop
