The preview widget harks from a platform before time, when we didn't
have GIO, or a thumbnail specification.
Very few applications use it correctly, if at all; it has an horrid hack
to deal with the ownership of the widget's instance when accessed
through the getter function; it messes up the layout of the widget and
its label is less than useful when it comes to file names longer than a
dozen characters; it's a poor substitute for a proper thumbnail view.
GtkFileChooser's API predates GIO by a few years, so it started off with
filenames and URI as character arrays. After introducing GIO as a
dependency, the API included GFile-based entry points.
It's much more appropriate to use GFile everywhere, as we want to
encourage people to use GIO instead of passing random bytes to low level
POSIX API.
See: #2455
Add an application shortcut for the Music folder in testfilechooser.
The file chooser used to filter duplicates out, but this broke
in the sidebar merge.
It would default to GTK_FILE_CHOOSER_ACTION_OPEN if the user's specified --action could not be
parsed. I can never remember what the right options are, so make the program bail out
if the user specifies an unrecognized option.

We can use this to test bugs that happen when setting a filename before the
file chooser is shown, as in bgo#161670

--action work correctly.

Merged from gtk-2-6:
Fix#147785 and clean up the loading code:
* gtk/gtkfilechooserdefault.c (LoadState): Make the set of states
be EMPTY, PRELOAD, LOADING, FINISHED.
(gtk_file_chooser_default_init): Start in the LOAD_EMPTY state.
(struct _GtkFileChooserDefault): Added a pending_select_paths
field.
(load_remove_timer): Add the new states.
(load_setup_timer): Likewise.
(load_timeout_cb): Likewise. Switch to the LOAD_LOADING state.
(browse_files_model_finished_loading_cb): Switch to the
LOAD_FINISHED state.
(enum PendingOp): Removed.
(struct _GtkFileChooserDefault): Removed the pending_op and
pending_select_path fields.
(pending_select_paths_free): New utility function.
(pending_select_paths_add): New utility function.
(gtk_file_chooser_default_finalize): Call
pending_select_paths_free().
(pending_op_queue): Removed.
(pending_op_process): Removed.
(pending_select_paths_process): New function.
(browse_files_model_finished_loading_cb): Call
pending_select_paths_process().
(center_selected_row_foreach_cb): Handle multiple selection by
only centering the first row.
(get_is_file_filtered): Constify.
(gtk_file_chooser_default_select_path): Queue into a list of paths
to select if we are not finished loading.
(show_and_select_paths): New utility function.
(up_folder_handler): Use pending_select_paths_add().
(gtk_file_chooser_default_should_respond): Do not call
pending_op_queue(); free the pending_selected_paths instead.
(gtk_file_chooser_default_initial_focus): Don't queue a pending
operation, and don't select the first row unconditionally --- this
will happen when the folder is done loading.
(shortcuts_row_activated_cb): Free the pending_select_paths.
(pending_select_paths_store_selection): New utility function.
(gtk_file_chooser_default_map): Call
pending_select_paths_store_selection() to save the selection
before reloading the folder.
(select_func): Umm? Call gtk_tree_selection_select_iter(). Don't
move the cursor here; it will be done when processing the pending paths.
* tests/testfilechooser.c (main): Add a button to the command
window to unmap and remap the file chooser.
2004-11-07 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* gtk/gtkfilefilter.h:
* gtk/gtkfilefilter.c (gtk_file_filter_add_pixbuf_formats):
New convenience function to add a filter for image files
which can be loaded by GdkPixbuf. (#145388, Anders Carlsson)
* tests/testfilechooser.c: Test the image filter.
2004-09-14 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com>
* gtk/gtktreeview.c (gtk_tree_view_focus_to_cursor): Set the cursor
to the first selected row instead of always to the first row if there
is no cursor. (#143270, Jean Bréfort)
* tests/testfilechooser.c (main): Fix a few typos.
