.net环境中使用FolderBrowser

好久没有动手写东西了（其实以前什么也没写过;-)）,今天要写的可能已经有哪位前辈完成了。拙作实在不敢拿出来现丑，高手看标题和上面的贴图就可以决定要不要看下去。不浪费大家时间。

客户的要求：有一个winform程序，用户要求可以自己选择数据文件存放的位置，简单点说就是在硬盘上选择一个目录。

最初的想法：　Win32 SDK中有一个SHBrowseForFolder API，这也是平时使用最频繁的方法，既然用.net开发程序当然想尽量用.net framework提供的managed代码。

问题：　　查阅MSDN,发现FolderBrowser类与SHBrowseForFolder的一样的功能，但是帮助文件提示：FolderNameEditor.FolderBrowser 类型支持 .NET 框架结构，因此不适用于直接从代码中使用。　ms似乎并不希望开发人员直接利用这个类，文档中没有关于这个类成员的任何说明。FolderBrowser类的申明如下：[C#]
protected sealed class FolderNameEditor.FolderBrowser : Component　属性是protected和sealed.　

解决方法：FolderBrowser嵌套地定义在类FolderNameEditor中，还好ms没有做绝把它也做成protected和sealed,这样通过继承FolderNameEditor，再在继承类中实例化一个FolderBrowser类就可以调用这个对话框了。至于FolderBrowser的成员可以通过其它查看.net汇编的小工具获得，推荐 使用lutz Roader's .net reflector,在下面的截图可以看到FolderBrowser的所有成员。

该类实际上只有一个方法ShowDialog,反汇编以后差一点吐血。大家看看下面的就明白了。

Windows.Forms.Design.FolderNameEditor+FolderBrowser href="urn:object:0">FolderBrowser.ShowDialog

费了那么多劲原来它自己也是通过interop调用SHBrowseForFolder,那还不如直接调用这个API。

如何调用这个类：

FolderBrowser aFolderBrowser = new FolderBrowser();
   aFolderBrowser.Title = "Select a Folder";
   aFolderBrowser.Flags = BrowseFlags.BIF_NEWDIALOGSTYLE|BrowseFlags.BIF_EDITBOX|BrowseFlags.BIF_STATUSTEXT;
   DialogResult result = aFolderBrowser.ShowFolderBrowser();
   if (result == DialogResult.OK ) {
   textBox1.Text = aFolderBrowser.DirectoryPath;
