A method identified as deprecated has been superseded and may become unsupported in the future.
Presents a modeless Open panel. (Deprecated in Mac OS X v10.6. Use beginWithCompletionHandler: instead. You can set absoluteDirectoryPath using setDirectoryURL:, and you can set fileTypes using setAllowedFileTypes:.)
- (void)beginForDirectory:(NSString *)absoluteDirectoryPath file:(NSString *)filename types:(NSArray *)fileTypes modelessDelegate:(id)modelessDelegate didEndSelector:(SEL)didEndSelector contextInfo:(void *)contextInfo
The directory whose files the panel displays. When nil, the directory is the same directory used in the previous invocation of the panel; this is probably the best choice for most situations.
Specifies a particular file in absoluteDirectoryPath that is selected when the Open panel is presented to the user. When nil, no file is initially selected.
An array of file extensions and/or HFS file types. Specifies the files the panel allows the user to select. nil makes all files in absoluteDirectoryPath selectable by the user. An array of types passed in here will override one set using setAllowedFileTypes:.
This is not the same as a delegate assigned to the panel. This delegate is temporary and the relationship only lasts until the panel is dismissed.
The message sent to modelessDelegate after the panel’s session has ended, but before dismissing the Open panel. didEndSelector may dismiss the Open panel itself; otherwise, it will be dismissed on return from the method. The corresponding method should have the following signature:
- (void)openPanelDidEnd:(NSOpenPanel *)panel returnCode:(int)returnCode contextInfo:(void *)contextInfo |
The value passed as returnCode will be either NSCancelButton or NSOKButton.
Any context information passed to modelessDelegate in the didEndSelector message.
Similar to beginSheetForDirectory:file:types:modalForWindow:modalDelegate:didEndSelector:contextInfo:, but allows for modeless operation of the panel.
NSOpenPanel.hPresents an Open panel as a sheet with the directory specified by absoluteDirectoryPath and optionally the file specified by filename selected. (Deprecated in Mac OS X v10.6. Use beginSheetModalForWindow:completionHandler: instead. You can set absoluteDirectoryPath using setDirectoryURL:, and you can set fileTypes using setAllowedFileTypes:.)
- (void)beginSheetForDirectory:(NSString *)absoluteDirectoryPath file:(NSString *)filename types:(NSArray *)fileTypes modalForWindow:(NSWindow *)docWindow modalDelegate:(id)modalDelegate didEndSelector:(SEL)didEndSelector contextInfo:(void *)contextInfo
The directory whose files the panel displays. When nil, the directory is the same directory used in the previous invocation of the panel; this is probably the best choice for most situations.
Specifies a particular file in absoluteDirectoryPath that is selected when the Open panel is presented to the user. When nil, no file is initially selected.
An array of file extensions and/or HFS file types. Specifies the files the panel allows the user to select. nil makes all files in absoluteDirectoryPath selectable by the user. An array of types passed in here will override one set using setAllowedFileTypes:.
The window to open the sheet on.
This is not the same as a delegate assigned to the panel. This delegate is temporary and the relationship only lasts until the panel is dismissed..
The message sent to modalDelegate after the modal session has ended, but before dismissing the Open panel. didEndSelector may dismiss the Open panel itself; otherwise, it will be dismissed on return from the method. The corresponding method should have the following signature:
- (void)openPanelDidEnd:(NSOpenPanel *)panel returnCode:(int)returnCode contextInfo:(void *)contextInfo |
The value passed as returnCode will be either NSCancelButton or NSOKButton.
Any context information passed to modalDelegate in the didEndSelector message.
NSOpenPanel.hReturns an array containing the absolute paths (as NSString objects) of the selected files and directories. (Deprecated in Mac OS X v10.6. Use URLs instead.)
- (NSArray *)filenames
The array of filenames.
If multiple selections aren’t allowed, the array contains a single name. The filenames method is preferable over NSSavePanel’s filename to get the name or names of files and directories that the user has selected.
NSOpenPanel.hDisplays the panel and begins a modal event loop that is terminated when the user clicks either OK or Cancel. (Deprecated in Mac OS X v10.6. Use runModal instead. You can set path using setDirectoryURL:, and you can set fileTypes using setAllowedFileTypes:.)
- (NSInteger)runModalForDirectory:(NSString *)absoluteDirectoryPath file:(NSString *)filename types:(NSArray *)fileTypes
The directory whose files the panel displays. When nil, the directory is the same directory used in the previous invocation of the panel; this is probably the best choice for most situations.
Specifies a particular file in absoluteDirectoryPath that is selected when the Open panel is presented to the user. When nil, no file is initially selected.
An array of file extensions and/or HFS file types. Specifies the files the panel allows the user to select. nil makes all files in absoluteDirectoryPath selectable by the user. An array of types passed in here will override one set using setAllowedFileTypes:.
The button clicked to dismiss the dialog: NSOKButton for the OK button and NSCancelButton for the Cancel button.
You can control whether directories and files appear in the browser with the setCanChooseDirectories: and setCanChooseFiles: methods.
NSOpenPanel.hDisplays the panel and begins a modal event loop that is terminated when the user clicks either OK or Cancel. (Deprecated in Mac OS X v10.6. Use runModal instead. You can set fileTypes using setAllowedFileTypes:.)
- (NSInteger)runModalForTypes:(NSArray *)fileTypes
An array of file extensions and/or HFS file types. Specifies the files the panel allows the user to select. nil makes all files selectable by the user. An array of types passed in here will override one set using setAllowedFileTypes:.
The button used to dismiss the dialog: NSOKButton for the OK button and NSCancelButton for the Cancel button.
This convenience method sends runModalForDirectory:nil file:nil types:fileTypes to the panel. See runModalForDirectory:file:types: for additional details.
