WPF: Create a dialog / prompt

Question

I need to create a Dialog / Prompt including TextBox for user input. My problem is, how to get the text after having confirmed the dialog? Usually I would make a class for t

Great answer of Josh, all credit to him, I slightly modified it to this however:

MyDialog Xaml

MyDialog Code Behind

    public MyDialog()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
    }

    public MyDialog(string title,string input)
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        TitleText = title;
        InputText = input;
    }

    public string TitleText
    {
        get { return TitleTextBox.Text; }
        set { TitleTextBox.Text = value; }
    }

    public string InputText
    {
        get { return InputTextBox.Text; }
        set { InputTextBox.Text = value; }
    }

    public bool Canceled { get; set; }

    private void BtnCancel_Click(object sender, System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        Canceled = true;
        Close();
    }

    private void BtnOk_Click(object sender, System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        Canceled = false;
        Close();
    }

And call it somewhere else

var dialog = new MyDialog("test", "hello");
dialog.Show();
dialog.Closing += (sender,e) =>
{
    var d = sender as MyDialog;
    if(!d.Canceled)
        MessageBox.Show(d.InputText);
}
