/**
 * Provides support for standard platform file dialogs. These dialogs have look
 * and feel of the platform UI components which is independent of JavaFX.
 * <p>
 * On some platforms where file access may be restricted or not part of the user
 * model (for example, on some mobile or embedded devices), opening a file
 * dialog may always result in a no-op (that is, null file(s) being returned).
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * A {@code FileChooser} can be used to invoke file open dialogs for selecting
 * single file ({@code showOpenDialog}), file open dialogs for selecting
 * multiple files ({@code showOpenMultipleDialog}) and file save dialogs
 * ({@code showSaveDialog}). The configuration of the displayed dialog is
 * controlled by the values of the {@code FileChooser} properties set before the
 * corresponding {@code show*Dialog} method is called. This configuration
 * includes the dialog's title, the initial directory displayed in the dialog
 * and the extension filter(s) for the listed files. For configuration
 * properties which values haven't been set explicitly, the displayed dialog
 * uses their platform default values. A call to a show dialog method is
 * blocked until the user makes a choice or cancels the dialog. The return
 * value specifies the selected file(s) or equals to {@code null} if the dialog
 * has been canceled.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Example:
 * <pre>{@code
 * FileChooser fileChooser = new FileChooser();
 * fileChooser.setTitle("Open Resource File");
 * fileChooser.getExtensionFilters().addAll(
 *         new ExtensionFilter("Text Files", "*.txt"),
 *         new ExtensionFilter("Image Files", "*.png", "*.jpg", "*.gif"),
 *         new ExtensionFilter("Audio Files", "*.wav", "*.mp3", "*.aac"),
 *         new ExtensionFilter("All Files", "*.*"));
 * File selectedFile = fileChooser.showOpenDialog(mainStage);
 * if (selectedFile != null) {
 *    mainStage.display(selectedFile);
 * }
 * }</pre>
