Handling FileInput?
« on: December 01, 2010, 08:17:06 pm »
Anyone's got an idea how I could manage to open a filescreen where you can choose a file? Like almost every software has...something like an "Open"-thing. Hope you know what I mean :)

As far as I know there is some function and right control in WinApi to manage this.

I suppose this would be the job of a GUI API. You can then choose one integrated (displayed) in SFML (see wiki) or an independent one (Qt, wxWidgets, GTK, [...], or an OS specific API).


Edit: after a bit of thinking, I don't think the integrated API can provide an open panel for now (not enough evolved yet).
