Parameters

absoluteDirectoryPath (NSString): The directory whose files the panel displays. When nil, the directory is the same directory used in the previous invocation of the panel; this is probably the best choice for most situations.

filename (NSString): Specifies a particular file in absoluteDirectoryPath that is selected when the Open panel is presented to the user. When nil, no file is initially selected.

fileTypes (NSArray): An array of file extensions and/or HFS file types. Specifies the files the panel allows the user to select. nil makes all files in absoluteDirectoryPath selectable by the user. An array of types passed in here will override one set using setAllowedFileTypes:.

Return Value

The button clicked to dismiss the dialog: NSOKButton for the OK button and NSCancelButton for the Cancel button.
