JFileChooser DIRECTORIES ONLY mode

Question

When I use a JFileChooser with the mode as directories only, I want to show the full path of the directory selected by the user in the text box next to the File Name: label. However all that is being displayed is the name of the directory itself and not it's full directory path?
JFileChooser jfc = new JFileChooser();
jfc.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.DIRECTORIES_ONLY);
String strDirSel = jfc.getSelectedFile().getPath();
jfc.setSelectedFile(new File(strDirSel));
Any suggestions of how to manage this, would be appreciated?

I thought the AWT one is a FILES_ONLY type of browser as well.
I just figured a kludge that I'm willing to live with. I added a PropertyChangedListener to tell when a file was selected. This has the effect of drilling down on single-click. I first tried the code that is commented out. Although my debugging comments show up on the console, the directory was not changed for DIRECTORY_CHANGED_PROPERTY. Oh well.
jFileChooser.addPropertyChangeListener(new PropertyChangeListener()
public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent evt)
if (evt.getPropertyName().equals(JFileChooser.SELECTED_FILE_CHANGED_PROPERTY))
System.out.println("sfcp");
File file = (File) evt.getNewValue();
if (isShowing())
if ( file.isDirectory())
jFileChooser.setCurrentDirectory(file);
if (evt.getPropertyName().equals(JFileChooser.DIRECTORY_CHANGED_PROPERTY))
System.out.println("DC");
File file = (File) evt.getNewValue();
if (isShowing())
System.out.println("is showing");
if (file.isDirectory())
System.out.println("is directory");
jFileChooser.setCurrentDirectory(file);
