Does the API require that the new relinked file is available, valid, and accessible?

short DGAlert (short alertType, const GS::UniString& titleText = GS::UniString(), const GS::UniString& largeText = GS::UniString(), const GS::UniString& smallText = GS::UniString(), const GS::UniString& button1Text = GS::UniString(), const GS::UniString& button2Text = GS::UniString(), const GS::UniString& button3Text = GS::UniString());The return value is the index of the clicked button. So if it returns 1, then the button1 was clicked.
if (DGAlert (DG_WARNING, "Warning", "Are you sure?", "Description.", "Yes", "No") == 1) { // 'Yes' was clicked }
