Hi

The DirectoryDialog is fine for helping the user select a directory in the filesystem but how to init it in order to have a default directory selected ?

DirectoryDialog dialog = new DirectoryDialog(getSite().getShell());
String directory = dialog.open();

If is not possible, is there another dialog that can be use to do this ?

Regards
