Using JFileChooser as a component

How to know which button is pressed in a JFileChooser if I used it as a component instead of using its show...() method?
I know I can use addActionListener to be notified when the user pressed a button, but the actionPerformed() is called even when the user pressed the cancel button. Is there a way to know which button is pressed?
Thanks

This is easy to do. Each ActionEvent has a command associated with it. This is so that complex components can use ActionListener to pass information. getActionCommand() the command, and then you need to compare it with something. JFileChooser.APPROVE_SELECTION and JFileChooser.CANCEL_SELECTION are static strings that you can compare with.
so
if (e.getActionCommand().equals(JFileChooser.APPROVE_SELECTION)
open the file;

Using JFileChooser in GUI Builder / Matisse

Would appreciate any help with how to modify the code created by the NetBeans GUI Builder / Matisse to use jFileChooser.
I've added a Menu item to act as a file Open option, called OpenItem, and the GUI builder has added a listener which points to a method OpenItemActionPerformed:
private void OpenItemActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
        // TODO add your handling code here:
} I have also added a jFileChooser component, named jFileChooser1, but if I try to use it in the OpenItemActionPerformed method I get an error.
private void OpenItemActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
       JFileChooser1.
}     shows error: "<identifier> expected" (as soon as I get to the dot).
The variable seems to be defined:
private void initComponents() {
        jFileChooser1 = new javax.swing.JFileChooser();
}// Variables declaration - do not modify
private javax.swing.JFileChooser jFileChooser1;
// End of variables declaration
Maybe I have gone about this the wrong way, so any clues as to either how I can get the jFileChooser1 variable to work or any way I can use JFilechooser with GUI Builder created application would be much appreciated.
Thanx in advance.

The following example creates a file chooser and displays it as first an open-file dialog and then as a save-file dialog:
    String filename = File.separator+"tmp";
    JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser(new File(filename));
    // Show open dialog; this method does not return until the dialog is closed
    fc.showOpenDialog(frame);
    File selFile = fc.getSelectedFile();
    // Show save dialog; this method does not return until the dialog is closed
    fc.showSaveDialog(frame);
    selFile = fc.getSelectedFile();Here is a more elaborate example that creates two buttons that create and show file chooser dialogs.
    // This action creates and shows a modal open-file dialog.
    public class OpenFileAction extends AbstractAction {
        JFrame frame;
        JFileChooser chooser;
        OpenFileAction(JFrame frame, JFileChooser chooser) {
            super("Open...");
            this.chooser = chooser;
            this.frame = frame;
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
            // Show dialog; this method does not return until dialog is closed
            chooser.showOpenDialog(frame);
            // Get the selected file
            File file = chooser.getSelectedFile();
    // This action creates and shows a modal save-file dialog.
    public class SaveFileAction extends AbstractAction {
        JFileChooser chooser;
        JFrame frame;
        SaveFileAction(JFrame frame, JFileChooser chooser) {
            super("Save As...");
            this.chooser = chooser;
            this.frame = frame;
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
            // Show dialog; this method does not return until dialog is closed
            chooser.showSaveDialog(frame);
            // Get the selected file
            File file = chooser.getSelectedFile();
    };Here's some code that demonstrates the use of the actions:
    JFrame frame = new JFrame();
    // Create a file chooser
    String filename = File.separator+"tmp";
    JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser(new File(filename));
    // Create the actions
    Action openAction = new OpenFileAction(frame, fc);
    Action saveAction = new SaveFileAction(frame, fc);
    // Create buttons for the actions
    JButton openButton = new JButton(openAction);
    JButton saveButton = new JButton(saveAction);
    // Add the buttons to the frame and show the frame
    frame.getContentPane().add(openButton, BorderLayout.NORTH);
    frame.getContentPane().add(saveButton, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
    frame.pack();
    frame.setVisible(true);

Using a different default component state within each page state

I am using a custom component in multiple page states but would like to have a different default state (for the same custom component) within each page state.
Is there anyway to use a different default component state within each page state .
When I change the default state at a component level it seems to go across all my page states. Any solutions?
Thank you

I guess I can just add that interaction for that component!
I think my brain is just catching up

Using the radio button component to go to a frame on a MovieClip

hello,
I am using the radio button component in Flash with a continue button.
When the user clicks their option in the radio button and then clicks continue, I want it to go to a movieClips Specific frame.
Here is the breakdown and the script I have so far is below.
The radio group os named RadioButtonGroup
The instance names for each of the three options are noviceButton,intermediateButton,expertButton
My continue button has an instance name of continueButton
and my movie clip I am trying to target has an instance name of level_mc
here is my code so far:
continueButton.enabled=false
noviceButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, revealContinue);
intermediateButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, revealContinue);
expertButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, revealContinue);
function revealContinue(evt){
continueButton.enabled=true;
continueButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickContinue);
function clickContinue(evt){
var frameNumber=mc_levels.Number(noviceButton.group.selectedData)
gotoAndStop (frameNumber);
the problem starts with my varFrame line-I don't know how to get it to go to the movieClip and gotoAndStop at a specific frame, based on which radio button was clicked and after the continue button is clicked.
Does anyone out there have any ideas?
thanks
babs

use:
continueButton.enabled=false
noviceButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, revealContinue);
intermediateButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, revealContinue);
expertButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, revealContinue);
function revealContinue(evt){
continueButton.enabled=true;
continueButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickContinue);
function clickContinue(evt){
var frameNumber=mc_levels.Number(noviceButton.group.selectedData)
level_mc.gotoAndStop (frameNumber);

File size using JFileChooser

Hi,
I have a File[] array (with directories and files on it), and want to take to another array the size of files only. I don't want to use File.length, because in this way i take the size of directories too.
I tried to use this:
for(int i=0; i<array.length; i++)
File f = new File(path, array.toString());
Size[i]=f.length();
}//for
but i don't think is good to have a Size array with "zeros" (when it finds directories) and long values (when it finds files).
What do you propose me to do?
Would it be good to use JFileChooser and how?
Thanks,
TSolonel

What do you want to do with that array? Why not having a File[] array, so you have both length and isDirectory info. Sorting? Something else? JFileChooser seems irrelevant. But again, it's all up to what you are trying to do. Clarify

How to get the file path of selected file using JFileChooser

Hi All,
I am trying to store the file on my FTP server after selecting the file from the user workstation using JFileChooser. But I am not able to write the file on FTP server or on user local machine where application is running. I am new to this FTP server coding. Can anyone help me in this.
This is the code I wrote on button click user will able to select the file:
String filename1;
File file;
JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser();
fc.showOpenDialog(this);
file = fc.getSelectedFile();
filename1 = file.getPath();
txtFilePath.setText(filename1);
Below is the code to write the file on my local machine first:
BufferedWriter outFile = new BufferedWriter( fileName ) );
outFile.write();
outFile.flush( );
outFile.close( );
Any help will be greatly appriciated

There is NOTHING named 'fileName' in any of the code you posted so that code can't possibly compile let alone actually run.
How can anyone help you if you won't post the actual code you are using?Its just a random snippet of other code that is totally irrelevant to this thread if you ask me.

Using my new GUI component in an applet :Help!!!

I am seeking help for the following
Define class MyColorChooser as a new component so it can be reused in other applications or applets. We want to use the new GUI component as part of an applet that displays the current Color value.
The following is the code of MyColorChooser class
* a) We define a class called MyColorChooser that provides three JSlider
* objects and three JTextField objects. Each JSlider represents the values
* from 0 to 255 for the red, green and blue parts of a color.
* We use wred, green and blue values as the arguments to the Color contructeur
* to create a new Color object.
* We display the current value of each JSlider in the corresponding JTextField.
* When the user changes the value of the JSlider, the JTextField(s) should be changed
* accordingly as weel as the current color.
* b)Define class MyColorChooser so it can be reused in other applications or applets.
* Use your new GUI component as part of an applet that displays the current
* Color value.

Folders that having non-ascii chars are not displaying on MAC using JFileChooser

On MAC OS X 10.8.2, I have latest Java 1.7.25 installed. When I run my simple java program which allows me to browse the files and folders of my native file system using JFileChooser, It does not show the folders that having non-ascii char in there name. According this link, this bug had been reported for Java 7 update 6. It was fixed in 7 Update 10. But I am getting this issue in Java 1.7.21 and Java 1.7.25.
Sample Code-
{code}
public class Encoding {
public static void main(String[] arg) {
try {
//NOTE : Here at desktop there is a folder DKF}æßj having spacial char in its name. That is not showing in file chooser as well as while is trying to read for FILE type, it is not identify by Dir as well as File - getting File Not Found Exception
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
} catch (IllegalAccessException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(Encoding.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
} catch (UnsupportedLookAndFeelException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(Encoding.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
} catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(Encoding.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
} catch (InstantiationException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(Encoding.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
JFileChooser chooser = new JFileChooser(".");
chooser.showOpenDialog(null);
{code}

How to save a copy of a file to different location using jfilechooser

hi, this is ravikiran,
In my project there is a situation where when a user clicks on some button, a copy of a file(which is initially in my project folder) must be saved to a location specified by the user.
I have no idea how to do this using JFileChooser.
help me,
thanx in advance

JFileChooser lets you choose a file. Once it's done you will have to program the copy function with womething like :
     public void copyToDir(String fileSource,String fileDest) {
          try {
               FileChannel srcChannel = new FileInputStream(fileSource).getChannel();
               FileChannel dstChannel = new FileOutputStream(fileDest).getChannel();
               dstChannel.transferFrom(srcChannel, 0, srcChannel.size());
               srcChannel.close();
               dstChannel.force(true);
               dstChannel.close();
          } catch (IOException e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
     }

Opening a specific directory using JFileChooser.

Iam using JFIleChooser to select a file is there any way that i the dialog opens at a particular directory say...c:\gallery\imagee...the default dialog opens @ MyDocuments Folder.

Read the API documentation of the class, especially coustructor section.

Hi,
see the link here
[https://cw.sdn.sap.com/cw/docs/DOC-37733|https://cw.sdn.sap.com/cw/docs/DOC-37733].
as advised, you create a usage group for dynamic components, add component usages to the group based on your conditions.

Anyone using the Adobe AutoComplete component?

I am using the auto complete component from Adobe off of the
Adobe Exchange site. I'm having an issue when I start typing some
text, the drop down shows however, if I press enter the auto
complete does not add the rest of the text.
I am using an untouched version of the code from the exchange
site using all the defaults. I tested the demo application on the
exchange site here
http://examples.adobe.com/flex2/exchange/AutoComplete/CustomizeAutoComplete/CustomizeAutoC omplete.html
and it works yet when I compile and run the demo it doesn't work.
Any thoughts????

here you go

Problem using JFileChooser

Hi,
I am encoutering a strange error dialog, javaw.exe No-Disk dialog box with this message "There is no disk in the drive. please insert a disk in drive A" when using JFileChooser.
I have been referring to some forums and understood this is a bug. But most encountered this when they are using it with Java Web Service or some web application.
I have Windows 2000 and mine is a java application. I have tried a workaround with WindowsAltFileSystemView but that does work with Windows 2000.
So is there any workaround..help needed.
thanks.

If you do not do so already, try setting a starting point for your JFileChooser.
JFileChooser chooser = new javax.swing.JFileChooser();
chooser.setCurrentDirectory( someDirectory );The "someDirestory" could be any directory you want or need depending on Platform independance or not.
