            {defaultFilter, integer()}

    Create function for two-step construction.

    See new/2 for details.

init(This) -> ok

    Types:
        This = wxGenericDirCtrl()

    Initializes variables.

collapseTree(This) -> ok

    Types:
        This = wxGenericDirCtrl()

    Collapses the entire tree.

expandPath(This, Path) -> boolean()

    Types:
        This = wxGenericDirCtrl()
        Path = unicode:chardata()

    Tries to expand as much of the given path as possible, so that the filename or directory is visible in the tree control.

getDefaultPath(This) -> unicode:charlist()

    Types:
        This = wxGenericDirCtrl()

    Gets the default path.

getPath(This) -> unicode:charlist()

    Types:
        This = wxGenericDirCtrl()

    Gets the currently-selected directory or filename.

getPath(This, ItemId) -> unicode:charlist()

    Types:
        This = wxGenericDirCtrl()
        ItemId = integer()

    Gets the path corresponding to the given tree control item.

    Since: 2.9.5

getFilePath(This) -> unicode:charlist()

    Types:
        This = wxGenericDirCtrl()

    Gets selected filename path only (else empty string).

    This function doesn't count a directory as a selection.

getFilter(This) -> unicode:charlist()

    Types:
        This = wxGenericDirCtrl()

    Returns the filter string.

getFilterIndex(This) -> integer()

    Types:
        This = wxGenericDirCtrl()

    Returns the current filter index (zero-based).

getRootId(This) -> integer()

    Types:
        This = wxGenericDirCtrl()

    Returns the root id for the tree control.

getTreeCtrl(This) -> wxTreeCtrl:wxTreeCtrl()

    Types:
        This = wxGenericDirCtrl()

    Returns a pointer to the tree control.

reCreateTree(This) -> ok

    Types:
        This = wxGenericDirCtrl()

    Collapse and expand the tree, thus re-creating it from scratch.

    May be used to update the displayed directory content.

setDefaultPath(This, Path) -> ok

    Types:
        This = wxGenericDirCtrl()
        Path = unicode:chardata()

    Sets the default path.

setFilter(This, Filter) -> ok

    Types:
        This = wxGenericDirCtrl()
        Filter = unicode:chardata()

    Sets the filter string.

setFilterIndex(This, N) -> ok

    Types:
        This = wxGenericDirCtrl()
        N = integer()

    Sets the current filter index (zero-based).

setPath(This, Path) -> ok

    Types:
        This = wxGenericDirCtrl()
        Path = unicode:chardata()

    Sets the current path.
