:During my experiments with this function, the Who dialog still popped up.

However, this can be avoided by using FriendsFrame:Hide(); or a combination of FriendsFrame:UnregisterEvent("WHO_LIST_UPDATE"); and FriendsFrame:RegisterEvent("WHO_LIST_UPDATE"); | ||
:Another way (perhaps slightly less complex, and easier to get to work with other addons) of avoiding the Who window popping up is to hook the <tt>FriendsFrame_OnEvent</tt> function and not letting the original handle <tt>WHO_LIST_UPDATE</tt> events when your own code is waiting for a reply. ''Example:'' | |||
function my_FriendsFrame_OnEvent() | |||
if not(event == "WHO_LIST_UPDATE" and iAmWaitingForAReply) then | |||
original_FriendsFrame_OnEvent(); | |||
end | |||
end | |||
original_FriendsFrame_OnEvent = FriendsFrame_OnEvent; | |||
FriendsFrame_OnEvent = my_FriendsFrame_OnEvent; | |||
:Of course your code should make sure to reset <tt>iAmWaitinForAReply</tt> periodically (e.g. in case you never get a reply!), and you should probably read [[HOWTO:_Hook_a_Function]] for more info on that subject. | |||
