Gtk::FileSelection* wrap (GtkFileSelection* object, bool take_copy=false)

Detailed Description

Prompt the user for a file or directory name.

Gtk::FileSelection should be used to retrieve file or directory names from the user. It will create a new dialog window containing a directory list, and a file list corresponding to the current working directory. The filesystem can be navigated using the directory list or the drop-down history menu. Alternatively, the TAB key can be used to navigate using filename completion - common in text based editors such as emacs and jed.

std::string Gtk::FileSelection::get_filename (   const
 

This function returns the selected filename in the on-disk encoding (see Glib::filename_from_utf8()), which may or may not be the same as that used by GTK+ (UTF-8).

To convert to UTF-8, call Glib::filename_to_utf8(). The returned string points to a statically allocated buffer and should be copied if you plan to keep it around.

If no file is selected then the selected directory path is returned.

Returns:
Currently-selected filename in the on-disk encoding.

bool Gtk::FileSelection::get_select_multiple (   const
 

Determines whether or not the user is allowed to select multiple files in the file list.

See set_select_multiple().

Returns:
true if the user is allowed to select multiple files in the file list.

const Entry* Gtk::FileSelection::get_selection_entry (   const
 

Entry* Gtk::FileSelection::get_selection_entry (  
 

const Label* Gtk::FileSelection::get_selection_text (   const
 

Label* Gtk::FileSelection::get_selection_text (  
 

Glib::ArrayHandle<std::string> Gtk::FileSelection::get_selections (   const
 

Retrieves the list of file selections the user has made in the dialog box.

This function is intended for use when the user can select multiple files in the file list. The first file in the list is equivalent to what get_filename() would return.

The filenames are in the encoding of Glib::filename_from_utf8(), which may or may not be the same as that used by GTK+ (UTF-8). To convert to UTF-8, call Glib::filename_to_utf8() on each string.

Returns:
A newly-allocated 0-terminated array of strings. Use Glib::strfreev() to free it.

const GtkFileSelection* Gtk::FileSelection::gobj (   const [inline]
 

Reimplemented from Gtk::Dialog.

GtkFileSelection* Gtk::FileSelection::gobj (   [inline]
 

Reimplemented from Gtk::Dialog.

void Gtk::FileSelection::hide_fileop_buttons (

Glib::PropertyProxy<bool> Gtk::FileSelection::property_select_multiple (  
 

Glib::PropertyProxy<bool> Gtk::FileSelection::property_show_fileops (  
 

void Gtk::FileSelection::set_filename ( const std::string&    filename
 

Sets a default path for the file requestor.

If filename includes a directory path, then the requestor will open with that path as its current working directory.

The encoding of filename is the on-disk encoding, which may not be UTF-8. See Glib::filename_from_utf8().

Parameters:
filename A string to set as the default file name.

void Gtk::FileSelection::set_select_multiple ( bool    select_multiple = true
 

Sets whether the user is allowed to select multiple files in the file list.

Use get_selections() to get the list of selected files.

Parameters:
select_multiple Whether or not the user is allowed to select multiple files in the file list.

void Gtk::FileSelection::show_fileop_buttons (
