Opening a remote file selection dialog with the RSE for Eclipse

Tue, 2011-06-14 19:41 | by Samuel Lampa

This was easier than expected. Helped by the RSE File UI API Docs and this forum post, I figured out how to do:

SystemRemoteFileDialog dialog = new SystemRemoteFileDialog(SystemBasePlugin.getActiveWorkbenchShell());
dialog.open();
 
IRemoteFile file = (IRemoteFile) dialog.getSelectedObject();
System.out.println("Selected file's absolute path: " + file.getAbsolutePath());

Now also committed!

Update: Using proper interface for dealing with remote files (commit).
