GtkFileChooserButton broken

Description

There's no way to connect to "file-set" signal, as such there's no way to actually get selected file/folder.(fileChooserGetFilename returns CURRENT SELECTED filename, meaning that it will change WHILE user is clicking on files, not after he closed the dialog.)

And there's no way to connect "selection-changed" either. Gtk2hs only allows fileChooserDialogs now.

My tests show that fileChooserGetFilename doesn't behave the way you describe: it does return the correct values after the chooser dialog has been closed. Still, it seems reasonable to expose these two signals. (There's even been code to expose selection-changed sitting around in the repository but commented out since 2005, probably just by oversight). Next time I work on gtk2hs, my first task will be to convert file chooser signals to the new style, and I'll expose these signals during the conversion.

(copy of message from previous Trac that was missed during migration)

Done. fileSelectionChanged is available in darcs, and will be in the next release of gtk2hs. I don't see "file-set" in the official documentation at http://developer.gnome.org/gtk2/2.24/GtkFileChooser.html#GtkFileChooser.signals so that one will not be available.
