/*!
	\class BFilePanel
	\ingroup storage
	\ingroup libbe
	\brief Displays a standard Open/Save dialog.

	A save panel looks like this:

	\image html BFilePanel_example.png

	An open dialog looks similar but doesn't have a text box for the file name.

	You generally construct a BFilePanel object in response to a user action
	for example the user clicks on a "Open" or "Save"/"Save As" menu item.
	Constructing an open or save panel is easy:

\code
	BFilePanel* openPanel = new BFilePanel(B_OPEN_PANEL);
	BFilePanel* savePanel = new BFilePanel(B_SAVE_PANEL);
\endcode

	You can then call methods to indicate what directory to display, whether
	or not multiple selections are allowed, whether or not the user is
	allowed to open a directory, what target view to send send notifications,
	and more. See the constructor for details.

	You can modify the look of your BFilePanel object by calling the
	SetButtonLabel() and SetSaveText() methods. If you want to change the look
	even more radically you can get alter the panel's BWindow and BView
	objects. You get the window by calling the Window() method. With a pointer
	to the panel's BWindow object you can drill down to the various views
	contained therein.

	Once you have constructed and customized your BFilePanel object you should
	call the Show() method to display the panel to the user.

	When the user confirms or cancels a BMessage object is constructed and sent
	to the target of the BFilePanel object. You can specify a different
	target in the constructor or by calling the SetTarget() method.

	<b>Open Notifications</b>

	For open notifications the default target is \c be_app_messenger and is
	caught by the RefsReceived() method The \c what field is set to
	\c B_REFS_RECEIVED. You can set your own message by calling the
	SetMessage() method; in this case the message will be sent to the target's
	MessageReceived() method instead.

	The \c refs field of the message contains an \c entry_ref structure
	for each entry that the user has selected. The \c refs field is of
	type \c B_REF_TYPE. If the selected entry is a symlink to a file you'll 
	need to dereference the file yourself. You can do this more easily by
	turning the \c ref into a BEntry passing \c true into the \c traverse
	argument like this:

\code
	BEntry entry(ref, true);
\endcode

	<b>Save Notifications</b>

	Save notifications are always sent to the target's MessageReceived()
	method unlike open notifications. The \c what field of the message is
	set to \c B_SAVE_REQUESTED. The \c directory field contain a single
	\c entry_ref structure that points to the directory that the entry is
	saved to. The text that the user typed in the save panel's text view
	is put in the \c name field and is of type \c B_STRING_TYPE.

	<b>Cancel Notifications</b>

	Cancel notifications are sent when the panel is hidden whether by the
	user clicking the cancel button, closing the dialog, or confirming the
	action (assuming hide-when-done is turned on).

	Cancel notifications can be caught by the MessageReceived() method of
	the target. The \c what field is set to \c B_CANCEL. The \c old_what
	field is set to the previous what value which is useful if you have
	overridden the default message. The \c what field of the message you
	sent is put in the \c old_what field.

	The \c source field is a pointer of \c B_POINTER_TYPE to the closed
	BFilePanel object. When the BFilePanel object is closed it is not
	destroyed, it is hidden instead. You can then delete the BFilePanel
	object or leave it be and simply call Show() to use the panel next time
	you need it.

		BMessage* message, BRefFilter* filter, bool modal, bool hideWhenDone)
	\brief Creates and initializes a BFilePanel object.

	The constructor has many parameters but they may generally be set after
	the object has been constructed. The only parameters that must be set
	during construction are the \a mode, \a nodeFlavors, \a multipleSelection,
	and \a modal parameters. The rest may be set after the object has been
	constructed by the SetTarget(), SetPanelDirectory(), SetMessage(),
	SetRefFilter(), and SetHideWhenDone() methods.

	\param mode Set to \c B_OPEN_PANEL for an open panal or \c B_SAVE_PANEL
		for a save panel. Default is \c B_OPEN_PANEL.
	\param target The BMessenger object that sends messages to the BLooper
		or BHandler controlled by the file panel.
	\param ref The directory to display, by default the current working
		directory.
	\param nodeFlavors One or more option flags, this applies to open panels only.
		- \c B_FILE_NODE Can select files and symlinks to files.
		- \c B_DIRECTORY_NODE Can select directories and symlinks to directories.
		- \c B_SYMLINK_NODE Can select symlinks only.
	\param multipleSelection Whether or not the user is allowed to select more
		than one item to open. Save panels should always set this to \c false.
	\param message Message sent by the file panel on confirms or cancels.
	\param filter Hook method to call.
	\param modal Whether or not the panel is modal, defaults to \c false.
	\param hideWhenDone Set to \c false to keep the panel even after the user
		confirms or cancels. The close button will hide the panel regardless.
