File chooser internationalization problem
Hello All!
I'm trying to have Armenian texts on Swing components.
Locale hay = new Locale("hy", "HY");
Locale.setDefault(hay);
UIManager.put("FileChooser.openDialogTitleText", "Բացել");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.saveDialogTitleText", "Պահել");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.lookInLabelText", "Փնտրել");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.saveInLabelText", "Պահել");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.upFolderToolTipText", "Մի Մակարդակ Վերև");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.homeFolderToolTipText", "Աշխատաէկրան");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.newFolderToolTipText", "Ստեղծել Նոր Պանակ");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.listViewButtonToolTipText", "Ցուցակ");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.detailsViewButtonToolTipText", "Մանրամասներ");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.fileNameHeaderText", "Անուն");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.fileSizeHeaderText", "Ծավալ");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.fileTypeHeaderText", "Տեսակ");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.fileDateHeaderText", "Փոփոխման Ամսաթիվ");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.fileAttrHeaderText", "Հատկանիշներ");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.fileNameLabelText", "Նշոցի Անուն");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.filesOfTypeLabelText", "Նշոցների Տեսակներ");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.openButtonText", "Բացել");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.openButtonToolTipText", "Բացել Ընտրված Նշոցը");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.saveButtonText", "Պահել");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.saveButtonToolTipText", "Պահել Ընտրված Նշոցը");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.directoryOpenButtonText", "Պահել");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.directoryOpenButtonToolTipText", "Պահել Ընտրված Նշոցը");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.cancelButtonText", "Դադարեցնել");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.cancelButtonToolTipText", "Դադարեցնել Նշոց Ընտրման Երկխոսության Պատուհանը");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.newFolderErrorText", "Նոր Պահոցի Ստեղծման Սխալ");
UIManager.put("FileChooser.acceptAllFileFilterText", "Բոլոր Նշոցներ");Only DialogTitleText is working. And if I'm trying to internationalize other Swing components: buttons and so on, the only problem with JFrame title is.
I'm working on WindowsXP, and java version is 1.6.0_17.
Thanks in advance!

The quick answer:
You can't use JFileChooser unless you sign the applet.

File Chooser is displaying names of the Files and Directories as boxes
Hi All,
Actually i am working on an application in which i have the requirement to internationalize the File Chooser in All Operating Systems. The application is working properly for all languages on MAC OS, but not working properly for the language Telugu on both the Ubuntu and Windows OS. The main problem is, when i try to open the File Chooser after setting the language to TELUGU all the labels and buttons in the File Chooser are properly internationalized but names of Files and directories in the File Chooser are displaying as boxes.
So please provide your suggestions to me.
Thanks in Advance
Uday.I hope this can help you:

Time machine backups are failing. I've followed the instructions I found on the Time Machine troubleshooting page (http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html) but have gotten to where I don't know what to do next.
Sequence of events:
The main error message is always:
An error occurred while copying files. The problem could be temporary. If the problem persists, use Disk Utility to repair your backup disk.
Yesterday, I opened Disk Utility and verified the disk. Got this error:
Error: This disk needs to be repaired using the Recovery HD. Restart your computer, holding down the Command key and the R key until you see the Apple logo. When the OS X Utilities window appears, choose Disk Utility.
I ran Disk Utility and repaired the hard drive. Then I manually started the backup before going to bed, figuring it was going to take a long time to run. When I got up this morning, the backup had failed with the same "could be temporary" error. I checked the log, which says:

Does anyone know what the problem is here and what I should do?
Thanks,
TeryYou have repaired your boot drive (which is good) but have you repaired your time machine drive? I don't own a Time Capsule so I don't know if disk utility can operate on it. If it can, you should repair it as well. You may need to erase it and start a new backup. That happens to time machine volumes from time to time and is why people who are serious about their data never rely on a single source of backup.

How to find if the user has selected one or many files using a file chooser
I have a file chooser but want it to return either a file or file array depending on whether more than one file is selected but there doesn't seem to be any way to find out if that is the case or not. I want it to look something like:
if(fileChooser.getSelectedFile().isDirectory()==true)
selectedFile=fileChooser.getCurrentDirectory();
else if(fileChooser.multipleFilesSelected())
fileChooser.getSelectedFiles();//we have more than one file selected
else
fileChooser.getSelectedFile(); //if we have one file selected
}am I going about dealing with this in the right way?OK, I scoured the API again and found I could avoid the problem altogether by using
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/javax/swing/JFileChooser.html#isMultiSelectionEnabled()
and

Hi.
I have a JFrame (main frame), that opens another JFrame (popup frame) when u click a button, and in this frame I have a file chooser. The problem is, when i open the file chooser, the popup frame closes (shuts down) while the main frame stais put. How can i prevent the popup frame from closing when clicking the file chooser button?
here's the code for the file chooser:
FileChooser fc = new FileChooser();
int returnVal = fc.showOpenDialog(this);
if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION)
File file = fc.getSelectedFile();
String fileName = file.getName();
JDialog chooseFileFrame = new JDialog();
Container content2 = chooseFileFrame.getContentPane();
content2.show();Nope. both main frame and popup frame are JFrames. Here's the rest of the code:
I have a JFrame, fullcreen, contains a button Button_popup, that calls a new JFrame:
//call file chooser button
JButton chooseFileButton = new JButton("choose file");
//popup frame (that closes when i opens the file chooser
JFrame popUp= new JFrame("Heading");
popUp.setUndecorated(true);
popUp.getRootPane().setWindowDecorationStyle(JRootPane.FRAME);
popUp.setBounds(0,0,600,500);
Container content = popUp.getContentPane();
content.setBackground(Color.white);
content.add(chooseFileButton);
adds the file chooser button to my action listener, if hit:
private void chooseFile()
if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION)
File file = fc.getSelectedFile();
String file= file.getName();
JDialog fileChooserDialog= new JDialog();
Container content = fileChooserDialog.getContentPane();
content.show();

Hello All,
I am working on swings for quiet some time. I am facing a situation while using file chooser. If considered with the Swings perspective it is fine, but if any one of you know some solution or any information on the same please do post it.
The situation is as follows.
1) Building a menu bar
2) 3 of menu items are associated with instances of File chooser objects
3) The first file chooser instantiation takes around 700-800 ms.
4) The next 2 file chooser instances takes 50-130 ms.
So from this it is understandable that the first file chooser is instantiated with the file system vier etc etc and the next two instances uses that and so it is faster.
I would like to know what is that the Filechooser objects does on instantiation. Also is it possible to reduce the time.
The main reason for this is in Windows 98 Japanese OS (with 64 MB RAM) this takes around 8-10 seconds.
Please throw some light on this.
-Girish~~I have had the same problem, and from memory, doing a "new FileChooser();" somewhere in initialization does fix it (at init time expense). I didn't try to fire off a thread to do it on the side, this may work, too.

File Chooser to open a document?
Does anyone know how I can display a file chooser for a directory on the application server in Forms 10g and then open the file?
The problem I'm trying to solve is that I have several directories on my Windows application server with report files in them and I want the user of the Forms application to be able to access them. I want to restrict access to some of the directories via privileges I define in a database table associated to the user of the Forms application. I was using Windows security and web.show_document instead of the database table approach, but some of my users need to access the Forms application from remote sites (or home) so Windows security won't work in those cases.

Hello everybody,
i was wondering if anybody can help me with this problem i am having. i am trying to create a jfilechooser that enco-operates the operating systems icons. basically if my program is running on window then it would know the icon to use for different files. i think you are suppose to use FileSystemView but i cant seem to get it to compile. basically i want the same file chooser that you get in softwares such as Microsoft word and so.
thanksSwing uses a concept called a "Look and Feel".
If you don't specify one, you get the Java default "Metal" look and feel. I'm pretty sure that it's the look and feel that determines what icons are used for files.
If you want to use the windows look and feel, you would do perform a statement like this at the start of your code, before you display any frames or windows:
UIManager.setLookAndFeel("com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel");
This will make all of your windows look like a Windows app (and it only works ON a Windows operating system).
To automatically have your code set the Look and Feel relevant to the current platform, call:
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName() );
I think there's a way to have one component (like just the FileChooser) use a specific look and feel, but it isn't really appropriate in general GUI terms, I think, to be inconsistent like that. Alternatively, you could create your own subclass of JFileChooser or FileChooserUI that duplicates the Windows one. For that, I'd recommend you start here:

Combining File Chooser and this MP3 class
Hello all,
I was curious if anyone could help me figure out how to get a file to actually load once it is used with this code.
I'm unfamiliar with how it works and I was hoping for an explanation on it.
I wasn't sure if I had to have the program recgonize that I would like to load a mp3 or if it just would load it automatically...
Essentially, I want to be able to load a mp3 if I use the file chooser.
I can try to clarify my question more if anyone should need it.
Thank you

Calling File Chooser from a Button
I create a new JFileChooser when a button in a main control panel is pushed but when the Chooser pops up it only responds to the keyboard and not to the mouse. How do I get the Chooser to respond to the mouse after it has been opened? (By the way, when I don't use the button to access the Chooser it works fine)
Thanks.
ScottI have no problem opening the file chooser using the button, the problem is that the file chooser does not listen to the mouse once it is opened. I know the file chooser normally works properly because when I comment out the buttons I can use the same file chooser method that I have created it works fine. Here is the code that I have for these parts:
JButton getFile = new JButton("Get Files");
JButton displayImage = new JButton("Display Scans");
JButton calculate = new JButton("Calculate Rotations");
panel.add(getFile, BorderLayout.WEST);
panel.add(displayImage, BorderLayout.CENTER);
panel.add(calculate, BorderLayout.EAST);
frame.getContentPane().add(panel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
getFile.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
JFileChooser choser2 = new JFileChooser();
File[] files = getDirectory(choser2);
public static File[] getDirectory(JFileChooser fc){
File[] files;
files = new File[200];
File file;
fc.setMultiSelectionEnabled(true);
JFrame frame = new JFrame("File Selector");
int returnVal = fc.showOpenDialog(frame);
if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
files = fc.getSelectedFiles();
} else {
file = null;
System.out.println("Open command cancelled by user.");
return files;

AHHHHHH! Multiple open file chooser windows
Ok, I am going nuts here. I have figured out the problem of getting the data to appear on the same frame that I originally open. The menu at the top has File -> Open. When the user first comes into the form, that is the only thing enabled. I am using a different file opener for this initial opening. Here is why (although, it doesn't fix the problem):
When the user opens the file, the data appears in the frame. If the user opens another file, the data appears in the frame and another file open chooser window appears even though the users did not select it again. If the user then opens another file, then that is it. If the user then goes to the menu and selects File->Open the file open chooser appears. The user selects a file and the data appears in the frame, but another file open chooser appears. I have had it happen up to 8 times. Now, I have no idea why this is getting called over and over again. It is this that is being called multiple times:
jMenuFileOpen.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
System.out.println("IS THIS THE OPEN THAT IS CALLED OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN");
jMenuFileOpen_actionPerformed(e);
});That println is printing each time another file open chooser window appears. I am pulling out my hair trying to figure this one out. The way I am starting this up is this:
public FDASFrame(File file) {
enableEvents(AWTEvent.WINDOW_EVENT_MASK);
inputfile = file;
try {
jbInit();
catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
public void setFile (File file) {
enableEvents(AWTEvent.WINDOW_EVENT_MASK);
inputfile = file;
try {
jbInit();
catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}These methods are in the main frame - FDASFrame. I am wondering if that is the problem. Here is the part of the filechooser that calls the main frame when the file is gotten:
parent.setFile(file);
JFrame frame = (JFrame)parent;Has anyone got any ideas to this problem? It might solve the problem of the tables getting duplicate data in them, too, each time a new file is opened.
Thanks to anyone who has any ideas on how to solve this. I am stumped.
AllysonI have other tests, but this is the one that is messing me up. Here is the whole file chooser (it is really long):

}I know I should split this out and I will sometime, but for now, this is the way the code is.
I think the reason that nothing is coming up is that all my work is done in jbInit(). I don't want to post that code, but I will if needed. So, if I can only call it once, then how do I get the rest of it to run? Maybe I am going about this all wrong. But if it is not in jbInit(), then how does it get called? I guess now, I am confused.
Thanks for the help.

Hi, since i put some mp4 video or DVD files on my external hard drives final cut prox won't recognize my hard drives, i move all the video files and the problem still exist. somebody have the solution
Did the back and forth between PC and Mac file systems screw up my files somehow?
Yes. Unfortunately the move has almost certainly caused the loss of the resource data that would have been (invisibly) attached to those files.
By adding a specific .mov extension after the fact you will have helped the Mac correctly identify the file type / asscoiations but also significantly you will have physically changed the filename eg from "clip" to "clip.mov". This means that when you come to reconnect the media in FCP , then FCP will be looking for files that no longer exist at the given path eg when specifically looking for our example clip called "clip" of course it won't find it.
Try this as a test... first remove the ".mov" extension from one or more of the clips, select those clips and press Cmd-Opt-I to open an Info window for the selection. You'll see an "Open with:" popup and in that popup you should choose QuickTime Player (if its a Unix Executable then it will initially list Terminal as the appropriate app, you have to choose Other... then in the open dialog choose Enable > All Applications and then navigate to and select the Quicktime Player app as the appropriate app). After you've done that restart FCP and see if you can now reconnect to those clips. -
How to start Windows file chooser?
I don't mean the AWT file chooser FileDialog.
I have seen a Java application use the new Windows file chooser which is used in Windows 2000 and Windows XP. On the left side it has a large bar.
How can I start that new Windows file chooser?Hello, my name is Silvia.
I'd like to know how to hide that large bar on the left side in the file chooser (jdk 1.4.x).
My problem is about truncated names like 'My Document' (it is shown as 'My Docum...') or 'My Network Place' (it is shown as 'My Networ...').
Should I extend the JFileChooser class? What is the name of 'the large bar on the left side in the file chooser'?
Thank you very much, Silvia.
