Easier Property Setting
There is an easier way to set the initial properties on a GNOME File Selector. This is done by utilizing the item container moniker, by appending a ! and then name=value pairs of properties.
Example 8. Advanced GNOME File Selector Creation
GtkWidget *control;
char *moniker;
moniker = g_strdup_printf (
"OAFIID:GNOME_FileSelector!"
"AcceptDirectories=False;"
"Application=MyApp;"
"DefaultFileName=%s;"
"MimeTypes=%s:text/plain;"
"MultipleSelection=True",
get_last_file_name (),
_("Text Files"));
control = bonobo_widget_new_control (moniker, CORBA_OBJECT_NIL);
gtk_widget_show (control);
g_free (moniker);

This lets you bypass the querying for a PropertyBag and various set property calls.
