Description
GetFilterExt is a
String function used to get the file
extension for the value in the Filter property. GetFilterExt parses the value
in
Filter, and ignores the all files mask (
'*.*') in favor
of actual file extensions included in the property.
The return value contains the file extension found in the Filter property. If
no file extension is found in Filter, the value in DefaultExt is
used as the return value.
GetFilterEx is used by the Lazarus IDE in the implementation of property
editors for TGraphic and TImageList.
