\section{\class{wxDirPickerCtrl}}\label{wxdirpickerctrl}

This control allows the user to select a directory. The generic implementation is
a button which brings up a \helpref{wxDirDialog}{wxdirdialog} when clicked. Native implementation
may differ but this is usually a (small) widget which give access to the dir-chooser
dialog.
It is only available if \texttt{wxUSE\_DIRPICKERCTRL} is set to $1$ (the default).

\twocolwidtha{5cm}%
\begin{twocollist}\itemsep=0pt
\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxDIRP\_DEFAULT\_STYLE}}{Default style.}
\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxDIRP\_USE\_TEXTCTRL}}{Creates a text control to the left of the
picker button which is completely managed by the \helpref{wxDirPickerCtrl}{wxdirpickerctrl}
and which can be used by the user to specify a path (see \helpref{SetPath}{wxdirpickerctrlsetpath}).
The text control is automatically synchronized with button's value. Use functions defined in \helpref{wxPickerBase}{wxpickerbase} to modify the text control.}

\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxDIRP\_DIR\_MUST\_EXIST}}{Creates a picker which allows to select only existing directories. wxGTK control always adds this flag internally as it does not support its absence.}
\twocolitem{\windowstyle{wxDIRP\_CHANGE\_DIR}}{Change current working directory on each user directory selection change.}

\end{twocollist}

\wxheading{Event handling}

\twocolwidtha{7cm}%
\begin{twocollist}\itemsep=0pt
\twocolitem{{\bf EVT\_DIRPICKER\_CHANGED(id, func)}}{The user changed the directory selected in the control either using the button or using text control (see wxDIRP_USE_TEXTCTRL; note that in this case the event is fired only if the user's input is valid, e.g. an existing directory path).}
