RadFileDialogs: Expose mechanism to cache the last open directory

Currently, the dialogs provide a way to restore the last open directory. The opened directory path will be stored in a private string field of the RadOpenFolderDialog instance. However, in other this to work, the dialogs require the following steps:

  • The same dialog instance should be used every time you open the dialog.
  • In order for the directory to be saved the directory should be opened. Clicking cancel or the X button won't save the directory.
  • Closing the application and then opening it again, or generally when you create a new dialog instance, the last saved directory will get lost.

We could expose a mechanism to cache the last open directory outside of the dialogs, thus allowing you to restore the directory even when the application is closed.

Hello Vamsee,

This will be a good improvement to our RadFileDialogs. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
