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

Bug 324206 is a RDT problem, the bug
I was looking at was the PE and LoadLeveler run configuration which has
browse  buttons next to a bunch of pathnames. I was trying to fix
the code so they would save the last used pathname.

I did try to look at the RDT bug, but
something is wrong with my setup with both PTP 4.0 and head where I can't
create working remote C projects using either RSE or remote tools connections,
so don't have a way to work on this.

Dave, while you are in there, can you look at this, in
case it's easy to fix?
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=324206
Also has to do with the browse dialog " Use wildcard in browse dir;
results don't remove wildcard"

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?
