File Select Class: AddFileMask

Previous Top Next

Prototype:

(String pName, String pMask, Byte pFree=False)

pName

Descriptive name for the file mask, such as "Text files" or "All files"

pMask

Wildcard mask for the file type, such as "*.txt" or "*.*"

pFree

Specifies if existing entries should be deleted. Set to True if the filemask needs to be started over and the existing entries removed.

This method adds a single entry into the file mask queue. The file mask is used to construct a string that is used for the extensions parameter when FileDialog() is called by the SelectFile method.

Example:

FS ITFileSelectClass

Code

FS.AddFileMask('INI File','*.ini',True)

FS.AddFileMask('All Files','*.*.')

FS.SetDefaultPath(INIMgr.Fetch('UpdateGetFromINI','FS:INIFilename'))

FS.SelectFile(?Loc:IniFileName)

INIMgr.Update('UpdateGetFromINI','FS:INIFilename',FS.GetFilePart(Loc:IniFileName,FNS_FullPath))
