[Solved] FileBrowserContentProvider

[John Kenneth]

Hi,

We tried to inherit the FileBrowserContentProvider on a sharepoint webpart but it seems it doesnt work. We tried to call the ResolveRootDirectoryAsTree method. Here is a our sample code:

public

CustomContentProvider(HttpContext context, string[] searchPatterns, string[] viewPaths, string[] uploadPaths, string[] deletePaths, string selectedUrl, string selectedItemTag)
:
 base(context, searchPatterns, viewPaths, uploadPaths, deletePaths, selectedUrl, selectedItemTag)

{
    

foreach (string strPath in viewPaths)
    {
        ResolveRootDirectoryAsTree(strPath);
    }
}

We will appreciate for some ideas you can provide to us. Thanks.

Hi John Kenneth,

Could you please clarify what exactly do you want to achieve? Why are you inheriting the FileBrowserContentProvider class - it is an abstract class and you will have to manually implement all its methods. If you want to use the MOSS libraries, just inherit the SPContentProvider one and override the desired functions. If you want to use the File System you can override the FileSystemContentProvider class.

I hope this helps.

Sincerely,
