Description
Procedure GetFile displays a standard file dialog which requests the user to select a text document.
It is advisable to call DidCancel after using this procedure and check that the user did not cancel the file selection process.
PROCEDURE GetFile(
VAR fileName :STRING);
def vs.GetFile(): return fileName
Parameters
fileName STRING Returns name of selected file.
Remarks
At least on the Mac, fileName does not set the default folder to browse. Use GetFileN if you want this functionality.
Example
VectorScript
PROCEDURE Example; VAR fileName : STRING; a,b,c : INTEGER; BEGIN GetFile(fileName); IF NOT DidCancel THEN BEGIN Read(a, b, c); Close(fileName); END; END; RUN(Example);
Python
def Example(): fileName = vs.GetFile() if not vs.DidCancel(): vs.Read(a,b,c) vs.Close(fileName) Example()
