SystemRemoteFolderDialog - How to get string with full path? [message #17677] Wed, 09 January 2008 15:23 Go to next message

Hello,

I'm using a SystemRemoteFolderDialog to let the user choose a path on a
remote machine.
As I investigated for now, getSelectedObject() returns the file or
folder that was chosen. The weird thing is that this method returns an
Object.

Now I want to get the full path of the folder into a String. Calling
toString() on the object only gives me the selected element, i.e.
"harald" instead of "/home/harald"

How can I get the full path? May I cast this Object to something like
IHostFile??

Thank you and best regards,
Harald

The outputObject will typically be instanceof IRemoteFile. See
