File Open Dialog.........amazing

Classic Servoy
1

Hi All,

In the Servoy sample_pdf_forms Solution, i got the code,

var fname = application.showFileOpenDialog();

And it is working in rich client as well in web client.

But, generally we will use File plugin for the above case. And showFileOpenDialog() Method is not visible under Application in the navigation window of method editor.

Can any one please state how it is working?

The function application.showFileOpenDialog() is deprecated and moved to the file plugin a while ago.
For backward compatibility it still works though but won’t show up in the application node anymore.
The sample_pdf_forms solution was created before this change was made.

Hope this helps.
