Cascades Development

Are there some builtint control/components to show afile selection dialog?

I think, this is a base requirement, but i found nothing in Cascades FrameWork.

Thank you Peter!

undefined reference to `bb::cascades:ickers::FilePicker::~FilePicker(),

Need i include some libs in .pro file?

I have #include <bb/cascades/pickers/FilePicker> and qmlRegisterType<bb::cascades:ickers::FilePicker>("CustomComponent", 1, 0,"FilePicker") in main.cpp.

Add this to .pro file

LIBS += -lbbcascadespickers

[rocjohn]

Thank you borceg, now build ok after add LIBS += -lbbcascadespickers in .pro file.

But now qml:72: ReferenceError: Can't find variable: FileType while running.

[borceg]

Post more code from your qml in order to help you.

you have to register the Types

// Register some classes for Filepicker for QML
	qmlRegisterType<bb::cascades::pickers::FilePicker>("bb.cascades.pickers", 1,
			0, "FilePicker");
	qmlRegisterUncreatableType<bb::cascades::pickers::FilePickerMode>(
			"bb.cascades.pickers", 1, 0, "FilePickerMode", "");
	qmlRegisterUncreatableType<bb::cascades::pickers::FilePickerSortFlag>(
			"bb.cascades.pickers", 1, 0, "FilePickerSortFlag", "");
	qmlRegisterUncreatableType<bb::cascades::pickers::FilePickerSortOrder>(
			"bb.cascades.pickers", 1, 0, "FilePickerSortOrder", "");
	qmlRegisterUncreatableType<bb::cascades::pickers::FileType>(
			"bb.cascades.pickers", 1, 0, "FileType", "");
	qmlRegisterUncreatableType<bb::cascades::pickers::FilePickerViewMode>(
			"bb.cascades.pickers", 1, 0, "FilePickerViewMode", "");

Thanks Ekke!

Very nice, now everything is ok!

another help: are there some way to filter just .mp3 files in file selection dialog?

:-D

you can select music files

title: qsTr("Select Music") + Retranslate.onLanguageChanged
            imageSource: "asset:///images/musicplayer81.png"
            ActionBar.placement: ActionBarPlacement.InOverflow
            onTriggered: {
                picker.title = qsTr("Select Music")
                picker.type = FileType.Music
                picker.directories = [
                ]
                picker.open();
            }
