Graphics.UI.Gtk.Selectors.FileChooserWidget

File chooser widget that can be embedded in other widgets

• Module available since Gtk+ version 2.4

Detail

FileChooserWidget is a widget suitable for selecting files. It is the main building block of a FileChooserDialog. Most applications will only need to use the latter; you can use FileChooserWidget as part of a larger window if you have special needs.

Note that FileChooserWidget does not have any methods of its own. Instead, you should use the functions that work on a FileChooser.
