Where can I find help about creating my own FileBrowserContentProvider?

Is there some "How To...?" somewhere?

Of course, I can try to guess everything by looking at the DBContentProvider example and the base class but some guidelines would be very welcome!

For instance, I am not quite clear whether I must implement my own HTTP Handler as in the DBContentProvider?


Many Thanks


Eric

PS: apologies for the thread title... I can't figure how to fix it! :-(

Thanks

I had not spotted this one...

Is there a way to get more details?

For instance, I am trying to understand the usage of the various properties/methods of a DirectoryItem
What is the Tag (string) used for? Can I set a Tooltip? etc...

Thanks

Hello Eric,


Basically, some of the logic in the concept of the FileBrowserContentProvided is specific for the RadEditor control only, because initially this control was developed for the RadEditor's dialogs. Currently there is no additional documentation available but we are working on improving the documentation of the FileExplorer control and once ready we will upload it on the site.

Looking a bit more into it has showed me that it will be simpler to do it myself using the same underlying components (Tree, Grid and splitter).

Many Thanks
