Package	flash.events
Class	public class FileListEvent
Inheritance	FileListEvent Event Object

Runtime Versions:

AIR 1.0

A File object dispatches a FileListEvent object when a call to the getDirectoryListingAsync() method of a File object successfully enumerates a set of files and directories or when a user selects files after a call to the browseForOpenMultiple() method.

Property Detail

files

property

public var files:Array

Runtime Versions:

AIR 1.0

An array of File objects representing the files and directories found or selected.

For the File.getDirectoryListingAsync() method, this is the list of files and directories found at the root level of the directory represented by the File object that called the method. For the File.browseForOpenMultiple() method, this is the list of files selected by the user.

Constructor Detail

FileListEvent

()

Constructor

public function FileListEvent(type:String, bubbles:Boolean = false, cancelable:Boolean = false, files:Array = null)

Runtime Versions:

AIR 1.0

The constructor function for a FileListEvent object.

The runtime uses this class to create FileListEvent objects. You will not use this constructor directly in your code.

Parameters

	`type:String` — The type of the event.

	`bubbles:Boolean` (default = `false`) — Determines whether the event object bubbles (`false` for a FileListEvent object).

	`cancelable:Boolean` (default = `false`) — Determines whether the Event object can be canceled (`false` for a FileListEvent object).

	`files:Array` (default = `null`) — An array of File objects.

Constant Detail

DIRECTORY_LISTING

Constant

public static const DIRECTORY_LISTING:String = "directoryListing"

Runtime Versions:

AIR 1.0

The FileListEvent.DIRECTORY_LISTING constant defines the value of the type property of the event object for a directoryListing event.

This event has the following properties:

Property	Value
`bubbles`	`false`
`cancelable`	`false`; there is no default behavior to cancel.
`files`	An array of File objects representing the files and directories found.
`target`	The FileListEvent object.

SELECT_MULTIPLE

Constant

public static const SELECT_MULTIPLE:String = "selectMultiple"

Runtime Versions:

AIR 1.0

The FileListEvent.SELECT_MULTIPLE constant defines the value of the type property of the event object for a selectMultiple event.

Property	Value
`bubbles`	`false`
`cancelable`	`false`; there is no default behavior to cancel.
`files`	An array of File objects representing the files selected.
`target`	The FileListEvent object.
