CompletePathIntoStringCaseSensitiveMatchesIntoArrayFilterTypes Method (outputName, flag, outputArray, filterTypes)

Interprets the receiver as a path in the file system and attempts to perform filename completion, returning a numeric value that indicates whether a match was possible, and by reference the longest path that matches the receiver.

Original signature is '- (NSUInteger)completePathIntoString:(NSString **)outputName caseSensitive:(BOOL)flag matchesIntoArray:(NSArray **)outputArray filterTypes:(NSArray *)filterTypes'

Available in Mac OS X v10.0 and later.

Declaration Syntax

Visual Basic

public virtual NSUInteger CompletePathIntoStringCaseSensitiveMatchesIntoArrayFilterTypes(
	out NSString outputName,
	bool flag,
	out NSArray outputArray,
	NSArray filterTypes
)

Public Overridable Function CompletePathIntoStringCaseSensitiveMatchesIntoArrayFilterTypes ( _
	<OutAttribute> ByRef outputName As NSString, _
	flag As Boolean, _
	<OutAttribute> ByRef outputArray As NSArray, _
	filterTypes As NSArray _
) As NSUInteger

public:
virtual NSUInteger CompletePathIntoStringCaseSensitiveMatchesIntoArrayFilterTypes(
	[OutAttribute] NSString^% outputName, 
	bool flag, 
	[OutAttribute] NSArray^% outputArray, 
	NSArray^ filterTypes
)

Parameters

outputName (NSString%): Upon return, contains the longest path that matches the receiver.

flag (Boolean): If YES, the methods considers case for possible completions.

outputArray (NSArray%): Upon return, contains all matching filenames.

filterTypes (NSArray): An array of NSString objects specifying path extensions to consider for completion. only paths whose extensions (not including the extension separator) match one of those strings.

Return Value

0 if no matches are found and 1 if exactly one match is found. In the case of multiple matches, returns the actual number of matching paths if outputArray is provided, or simply a positive value if outputArray is NULL.
