<!-- ##### SECTION Title ##### -->
GtkFileChooserDialog
<!-- ##### SECTION Short_Description ##### -->
A file chooser dialog, suitable for "File/Open" or "File/Save" commands
<!-- ##### SECTION Long_Description ##### -->
<para>
#GtkFileChooserDialog is a dialog box suitable for use with
"File/Open" or "File/Save as" commands. This widget works by
putting a #GtkFileChooserWidget inside a #GtkDialog. It exposes
the #GtkFileChooserIface interface, so you can use all of the
#GtkFileChooser functions on the file chooser dialog as well as
those for #GtkDialog.
</para>
<para>
Note that #GtkFileChooserDialog does not have any methods of its
own. Instead, you should use the functions that work on a
#GtkFileChooser.
</para>
<example id="gtkfilechooser-typical-usage">
<title>Typical usage</title>
<para>
In the simplest of cases, you can the following code to use
#GtkFileChooserDialog to select a file for opening:
</para>
<programlisting>
GtkWidget *dialog;
dialog = gtk_file_chooser_dialog_new ("Open File",
parent_window,
GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_OPEN,
GTK_STOCK_CANCEL, GTK_RESPONSE_CANCEL,
GTK_STOCK_OPEN, GTK_RESPONSE_ACCEPT,
NULL);
if (gtk_dialog_run (GTK_DIALOG (dialog)) == GTK_RESPONSE_ACCEPT)
{
char *filename;
filename = gtk_file_chooser_get_filename (GTK_FILE_CHOOSER (dialog));
open_file (filename);
g_free (filename);
}
gtk_widget_destroy (dialog);
</programlisting>
<para>
To use a dialog for saving, you can use this:
</para>
<programlisting>
GtkWidget *dialog;
dialog = gtk_file_chooser_dialog_new ("Save File",
parent_window,
GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_SAVE,
GTK_STOCK_CANCEL, GTK_RESPONSE_CANCEL,
GTK_STOCK_SAVE, GTK_RESPONSE_ACCEPT,
NULL);
gtk_file_chooser_set_do_overwrite_confirmation (GTK_FILE_CHOOSER (dialog), TRUE);
if (user_edited_a_new_document)
{
gtk_file_chooser_set_current_folder (GTK_FILE_CHOOSER (dialog), default_folder_for_saving);
gtk_file_chooser_set_current_name (GTK_FILE_CHOOSER (dialog), "Untitled document");
}
else
gtk_file_chooser_set_filename (GTK_FILE_CHOOSER (dialog), filename_for_existing_document);
if (gtk_dialog_run (GTK_DIALOG (dialog)) == GTK_RESPONSE_ACCEPT)
{
char *filename;
filename = gtk_file_chooser_get_filename (GTK_FILE_CHOOSER (dialog));
save_to_file (filename);
g_free (filename);
}
gtk_widget_destroy (dialog);
</programlisting>
</example>
<section id="gtkfilechooserdialog-response-codes">
<title>Response Codes</title>
<para>
#GtkFileChooserDialog inherits from #GtkDialog, so buttons that
go in its action area have response codes such as
#GTK_RESPONSE_ACCEPT and #GTK_RESPONSE_CANCEL. For example, you
could call gtk_file_chooser_dialog_new() as follows:
</para>
<programlisting>
GtkWidget *dialog;
dialog = gtk_file_chooser_dialog_new ("Open File",
parent_window,
GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_OPEN,
GTK_STOCK_CANCEL, GTK_RESPONSE_CANCEL,
GTK_STOCK_OPEN, GTK_RESPONSE_ACCEPT,
NULL);
</programlisting>
<para>
This will create buttons for "Cancel" and "Open" that use stock
response identifiers from #GtkResponseType. For most dialog
boxes you can use your own custom response codes rather than the
ones in #GtkResponseType, but #GtkFileChooserDialog assumes that
its "accept"-type action, e.g. an "Open" or "Save" button,
<emphasis>will</emphasis> have one of the following response
codes:
<simplelist id="gtkfilechooserdialog-responses">
<member>#GTK_RESPONSE_ACCEPT</member>
<member>#GTK_RESPONSE_OK</member>
<member>#GTK_RESPONSE_YES</member>
<member>#GTK_RESPONSE_APPLY</member>
</simplelist>
</para>
<para>
This is because #GtkFileChooserDialog must intercept responses
and switch to folders if appropriate, rather than letting the
dialog terminate — the implementation uses these known
response codes to know which responses can be blocked if
appropriate.
</para>
<note>
<para>
To summarize, make sure you use a <link
linkend="gtkfilechooserdialog-responses">stock response
code</link> when you use #GtkFileChooserDialog to ensure
proper operation.
