Hi,
I am using eclipse 3.7 in solaris environment.

I am trying to open one directory using SWT FileDialog.

// here is my code snippet to open directory
FileDialog fd = new FileDialog(new Shell(), SWT.OPEN);
fd.setText("Open");
fd.setFilterPath(File.separator+"net"+File.separator+"vajra"+File.separator+"axeiv");
String[] filterExt = { "*.txt", "*.doc", ".rtf", "*.*" };
System.out.println(fd.getFilterPath());
String selected = fd.open();

But what ever may be the path it opening default path.
FileDialog.open is calling openChooserDialog () method in eclipse 3.7.

Can some one tell me why my FileDialog is not opening the filterPath.

Regards,
Abbas.

Hi, sorry for the late reply,

I thought this used to work on Solaris, but I see the same as you. I've
logged https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=380000 .
