gtk-sharp 0.0.0.0 Gtk# is thread aware, but not thread safe; See the Gtk# Thread Programming for details. Creates a new dialog for the user to select one or more files, directories, or cancel. 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. Simple file operations; create directory, delete file, and rename file, are available from buttons at the top of the dialog. The functionality of the can be extended by using the available accessors to the buttons and drop downs. using System; using Gtk; using GtkSharp; class FileSelectionSample { Label lbl; static void Main () { new FileSelectionSample (); } FileSelectionSample () { Application.Init (); Window win = new Window ("FileSelectionSample"); win.SetDefaultSize (250,200); win.DeleteEvent += new DeleteEventHandler (OnWinDelete); VBox vbox = new VBox (true, 1); win.Add (vbox); Button btn = new Button ("Select a file."); btn.Clicked += new EventHandler (OnButtonClicked); vbox.Add (btn); lbl = new Label ("Selected: "); vbox.Add (lbl); win.ShowAll (); Application.Run (); } void OnButtonClicked (object o, EventArgs args) { FileSelection fs = new FileSelection ("Choose a file"); fs.Run (); lbl.Text = "Selected: " + fs.SelectionEntry.Text; fs.Hide (); } void OnWinDelete (object o, DeleteEventArgs args) { Application.Quit (); } } Gtk.Dialog Atk.Implementor GLib.IWrapper GLib.IWrapper System.IDisposable Method System.Void Restrict the visible files and directories to those that match the given . A simple wildcard pattern such as '*.txt'. This method attempts to match to a valid filenames or subdirectories in the current directory. If a match can be made, the matched filename will appear in the text entry field of the . If a partial match can be made, the "Files" list will contain those file names which have been partially matched, and the "Folders" list will show those directories with a partial match. Method System.Void Ensures that the file operation buttons are visible. Method System.Void Ensures that the file operation buttons are hidden. Method System.Void Disposes the resources associated with the object. Constructor Internal constructor Pointer to the C object. An instance of FileSelection, wrapping the C object. This is an internal constructor, and should not be used by user code. Constructor The main way to construct a new file selector. A title that will appear in the window's title bar.

Property System.String Manage the selected filename. Sets a default path for the file requestor. The selected filename in the on-disk encoding. If 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. Property System.Boolean Manage whether more than one file can be selected. Set to to allow more than one file to be selected in the file list, to only allow selection of a single file. if multiple selections are allowed, otherwise. Constructor Internal constructor GLib type for the type Creates a new instance of , using the GLib-provided type This is a constructor used by derivative types of that would have their own GLib type assigned to it. This is not typically used by C# code.
