[ptp-dev] Specifying initial directory for file selector dialogs

[Dave Wootton <dwootton@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I was looking at bug 324142 with the
intent to open the file or directory selector dialogs expanded at the last
referenced directory (from the run configuration) or the user's home directory
if the run configuration doesn't have the last referenced directory for
a field. The IRemoteUIFileManager interface defines a browseFile() method
that opens a file selector dialog. I'm using this method to open the file
selector dialog. However, in looking at the classes LocalUIFileManager,
RemoteToolsUIFileManager and RSEUIFileManager, it looks like only the LocalUIFileManager
class actually does anything with the initialPath parameter, and that the
only case where this will work is with local files.

I also looked at the RSEUIFileManager
class. It uses the RSE SystemRemoteFileDialog class to dis[play the file
selector and it looks like RSE doesn't even support opening the file selector
dialog at a specified directory.

Am I correct that there is no way for
me to  do what I want? Am I missing something?
