GetOnlyOneParameter Prompt for only one parameter

Params A list of Parameter input information classes, ParamInputInfo, that would be updated by this prompt. After processing with GetDistrParameters, the Value of each parameter will be updated.

Cancel If the prompt was closed by any means other than clicking the "Okay", this value would be set to True.

Usage Example

Declare the WeibullEvents.
Declare the WeibullDataSet.
Note: The WeibullDataSet constructor already creates a new WeibullEvents, which could be used in place of WEvents in the example below.

       Dim WEvents As New WeibullEvents
       Dim WDS As New WeibullDataSet 

Creates a new list of ParamInputInfo. Populate the list.

       Dim Params As New List(Of ParamInputInfo)
       Params.Add(New ParamInputInfo("Param1", 0, 10, False, True))
       Params.Add(New ParamInputInfo("Param2", 0, Double.MaxValue, False, True))

Create a Boolean for return of "Cancel" parameter.

       Dim wasCancelled As Boolean

Prompt user to input the parameters.

       WEvents.GetDistrParameters(WDS, "Message1", True, Params, wasCancelled)

The new Parameter values are in their respective ParamInputInfo.Value variables.

       Dim NewParameter1value As Double
       Dim NewParameter2value As Double 

       If Not wasCancelled Then
            NewParameter1value = Params(0).Value
            NewParameter2value = Params(1).Value
       End If
