public sealed class AlertDialog : Object

A `GtkAlertDialog` object collects the arguments that are needed to present a message to the user.

The message is shown with the [method@Gtk.AlertDialog.choose] function. This API follows the GIO async pattern, and the result can be obtained by calling [method@Gtk.AlertDialog.choose_finish].

If you don't need to wait for a button to be clicked, you can use [method@Gtk.AlertDialog.show].
