Choosing a file
To select a file to save, it is required to set the right properties of the service and then make a call to the DetermineFile method:
var dependencyResolver = this.GetDependencyResolver();
var saveFileService = dependencyResolver.Resolve<ISaveFileService>();
saveFileService.Filter = "C# File|*.cs";
if (saveFileService.DetermineFile())
{
// User selected a file
}
