GtkRecentChooserDialog

#GtkRecentChooserDialog is a dialog box suitable for displaying the recently used documents. This widgets works by putting a #GtkRecentChooserWidget inside a #GtkDialog. It exposes the #GtkRecentChooserIface interface, so you can use all the #GtkRecentChooser functions on the recent chooser dialog as well as those for #GtkDialog.

Note that #GtkRecentChooserDialog does not have any methods of its own. Instead, you should use the functions that work on a #GtkRecentChooser.

Typical usage ## {#gtkrecentchooser-typical-usage}

In the simplest of cases, you can use the following code to use a #GtkRecentChooserDialog to select a recently used file:

GtkWidget *dialog;
gint res;

dialog = gtk_recent_chooser_dialog_new ("Recent Documents",
                                        parent_window,
                                        _("_Cancel"),
                                        GTK_RESPONSE_CANCEL,
                                        _("_Open"),
                                        GTK_RESPONSE_ACCEPT,
                                        NULL);

res = gtk_dialog_run (GTK_DIALOG (dialog));
if (res == GTK_RESPONSE_ACCEPT)
  {
    GtkRecentInfo *info;
    GtkRecentChooser *chooser = GTK_RECENT_CHOOSER (dialog);

    info = gtk_recent_chooser_get_current_item (chooser);
    open_file (gtk_recent_info_get_uri (info));
    gtk_recent_info_unref (info);
  }

gtk_widget_destroy (dialog);

Recently used files are supported since GTK+ 2.10.
