Detailed Description

New file selector class.

Usage

Running the file selector

void MyClass::runFileSelector ()
{
if (selector)
{
selector->addFileExtension (CFileExtension ("AIFF", "aif", "audio/aiff"));
selector->setDefaultExtension (CFileExtension ("WAVE", "wav"));
selector->setTitle("Choose An Audio File");
selector->run (this);
selector->forget ();
}
}

Getting results

CMessageResult MyClass::notify (CBaseObject* sender, IdStringPtr message)
{
{
CNewFileSelector* sel = dynamic_cast<CNewFileSelector*>(sender);
if (sel)
{
// do anything with the selected files here
}
}
return parent::notify (sender, message);
}
