I am using JFileChooser in an app to browse for a directory however when I select the directory it returns the path to the folder above the folder I selected. i.e. I select "C:\Test" and it returns "C:\"
Here is the Code I'm Using
JFileChooser c = new JFileChooser();
c.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.DIRECTORIES_ONLY);
int rVal = c.showSaveDialog(c);
if (rVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
txtDirectory.setText("");
CC_Test.MsgBox(c.getCurrentDirectory().toString());
txtDirectory.setText(c.getCurrentDirectory().toString());
}
if (rVal == JFileChooser.CANCEL_OPTION) {
txtDirectory.setText("");
}
You should use
c.getSelectedFile()
instead of
c.getCurrentDirectory()
in order to get the selected file (aka directory in this case). Otherwise it yields the directory which is shown in the filechooser's panel (which is the parent) and not the one which is selected.
