Function to create a dialog box with buttons on Teach Pendant

[yck011522]

Summary

As a user who execute robotic code, I want to program an operator stop and ask user to confirm on the Teach Pendant so that I do not have to constantly run back and forth between my code window and Teach Pendant.

Details

Describe the feature and the current behavior/state
I want to create dialog box on the Teach Pendant. With 2 to 3 buttons. The command should block the robot motion, wait for user to press a button, return the result.

Describe alternatives you've considered
At the moment, if I want to have an operator confirm an action, I program an rrc.Stop() and the only interaction I can perform is to press the Play again to continue. Anything more complex than that I have to do this in command line and I have to jump back and forth between TP and command line. And while my left hand holds down the TP switch and the TP isn't wireless, this is a pain point.

Will this change the current API? How?
It is a new feature so it is probably Backward compatible.
