public class JFileChooser

extends JComponent

implements Accessible

Unsafe: JFileChooser provides a simple mechanism for the user to choose a file. For information about using JFileChooser, see How to Use File Choosers, a section in The Java Tutorial.

The following code pops up a file chooser for the user's home directory that sees only .jpg and .gif images:

    JFileChooser chooser = new JFileChooser();
    // Note: source for ExampleFileFilter can be found in FileChooserDemo,
    // under the demo/jfc directory in the Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition.
    ExampleFileFilter filter = new ExampleFileFilter();
    filter.addExtension("jpg");
    filter.addExtension("gif");
    filter.setDescription("JPG & GIF Images");
    chooser.setFileFilter(filter);
    int returnVal = chooser.showOpenDialog(parent);
    if(returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
       System.out.println("You chose to open this file: " +
            chooser.getSelectedFile().getName());
    }

Constructor Detail

JFileChooser

public JFileChooser()

Enabled: Constructs a JFileChooser pointing to the user's default directory. This default depends on the operating system. It is typically the "My Documents" folder on Windows, and the user's home directory on Unix.

JFileChooser

public JFileChooser(String currentDirectoryPath)

Enabled: Constructs a JFileChooser using the given path. Passing in a null string causes the file chooser to point to the user's default directory. This default depends on the operating system. It is typically the "My Documents" folder on Windows, and the user's home directory on Unix.

Parameters:

currentDirectoryPath - a String giving the path to a file or directory

JFileChooser

public JFileChooser(File currentDirectory)

Enabled: Constructs a JFileChooser using the given File as the path. Passing in a null file causes the file chooser to point to the user's default directory. This default depends on the operating system. It is typically the "My Documents" folder on Windows, and the user's home directory on Unix.

Parameters:

currentDirectory - a File object specifying the path to a file or directory

JFileChooser

public JFileChooser(javax.swing.filechooser.FileSystemView fsv)

Enabled: Constructs a JFileChooser using the given FileSystemView.
