Swing/AWT/SWT :: Select Different Blocks Of Code When File Selected In JFileChooser?
Nov 12, 2014
I have a program where I have to open a file and then run a piece of code to do something with it. However since there are different files I want to run different pieces of code depending on the file. I have a JFileChooser setup and it works but I would like to have a something like an if else depending on the file extension.
I insert a link to a file, that you need to download. After I click the download button and that's performed this action. And how me save the file, where i chose?
private void actionAdd() { JFrame parentFrame = new JFrame(); JFileChooser fileChooser = new JFileChooser(); fileChooser.setDialogTitle("Specify a file to save"); URL verifiedUrl = verifyUrl(addTextField.getText());
I am wondering how to do the following:when a user clicks on a save menu item, a save JFileChooser pops up. I would like to have a default file name set in the FileName box on the chooser, similar to what applications like Microsft word has. Right now, no file name will appear until the user has selected a file.I also need to know how to get the text from this box in the case that the user enters a new file name (the getSelection function is not useful here because the user will not have selected an existing file.)
i've spend an hour or two, pasting fragments from tutorials and nothing changed.
Well - i have GUI, that have JComboBox with two elements: String[] fedoras = { "Fedora 19", "Fedora 20" }; JComboBox fedora_list = new JComboBox(fedoras); fedora_list.setSelectedIndex(0); fedora_list.setBounds(120,170, 170,25); fedora_list.addActionListener(this); this.add(fedora_list);
Below i have normal button (named Update) with "update" set as ActionCommand. This button after clicked should check which value from list is selected and perform different operations for that elements. But it's harder than i thought.
Code for update button:
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){ String cmd = e.getActionCommand(); (...) else if ("update".equals(cmd)){ String selectedFedora = (String) fedora_list.getSelectedItem(); if (selectedFedora.equals("Fedora 19")) {
[code]....
- after user clicked Update button, button should check which value is selected in JComboBox (fedora_list). - if Fedora 19 is selected and button clicked, then action in Xterm - if Fedora 20 is selected, this same action in Xterm is performed, but for Fedora Linux 20
The problem is - i don't know hot to code Update button to check which value from fedora_list (JComboBox) is selected and perform other actions for every element on List.
I'm using a JFileChooser. I'm using a FileNameExtensionFilter which is fantastic, and will let me only show files that are of type .db or whatever. However, I don't want to show the user files that have a type of lock.db or *_trace.db for example, and I can't figure out a way to do that.
I'm trying to JFileChooser to open up a window. I'm just trying to learn how to use it for a school assignment this week. The problem is I can't get anything to show up. I can create a new window and print to the console without errors, but JFileChooser doesn't do anything. No errors either.
import java.awt.*; import javax.swing.*; public class TestingStuff extends JFrame { public TestingStuff() { setTitle("This is a new window!"); setVisible(true);
I have a swing application that is using JFileChooser. When I click the Open menu item from File menu it should show the File dialog box where user can select the file.This application is running in my machine but encounters problem in another machine. File dialog box is not showing and stack trace shows that NullPointerException is thrown by JFileChooser..My machine is a 64 bit Windows 7 while the other machine is Windows 7 32 bit. Both machine are using java 1.6..To verify if its because of the 32-bit, I tried in another Windows 7 32-bit and the same application is working.
I came across this article [URL] .... which identified it as bug but already fix in 1.4.2_04. Though I am using 1.6, just to make sure I also tried the suggested work around.I put System.setProperty("swing.disableFileChooserSpeedFix", "true"); in my code but still not working...I also tried to add java -Dswing.disableFileChooserSpeedFix=true to the batch file that is launching the application and still not working
Code Sample:
import javax.swing.JFileChooser; import javax.swing.filechooser.FileNameExtensionFilter; public class FileChooserTester{ public Boolean loadMDBFile() { System.setProperty("swing.disableFileChooserSpeedFix", "true"); JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser();
I'm dealing with, change the content pane color of jFilechooser. Color has been changed but the problem is when I open the subdirectory leads errors; Note : It also trigger error when I set default directory; like chooser.setCurrentDirectory(file);
The following error is the result:
Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-1" java.lang.NullPointerException at javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalFileChooserUI$IndentIcon.getIconWidth(MetalFileChooserUI.java:912) at javax.swing.SwingUtilities.layoutCompoundLabelImpl(SwingUtilities.java:961) at javax.swing.SwingUtilities.layoutCompoundLabel(SwingUtilities.java:888) at javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicLabelUI.layoutCL(BasicLabelUI.java:94) at javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicLabelUI.getPreferredSize(BasicLabelUI.java:239)
I have to divide a text file into blocks of 128 bits. I think i must use the ByteArrayInputStream and ByteArrayOutputStream classes. is there any website showing how to user these two ByteArrayInputStream and ByteArrayOutputStream classes in detail. or it would be much better if you could show me a portion of the code.
i can't make the [JfileChooser] save text file instead of opening files.that [ComboBox] always don't show me the items that i have inserted in eclipse.
I have encountered a very tricky spot in a project that i am working on. I must have a JTable to programmatically select the very last row in an AbstractTableModel. I have tried every thing but nothing works so far.
The problem is is that the JTable only scrolls down to the second last table row in the model? What am i missing?
//Show the very last row in a tablemodel object using the method updateTableRows //after an "insert action event" occurred public void updateViewMode(String name, java.util.List<NetworkSwitch> list, boolean flag) { CableTableModel model = cableTable.getCableModel();
[code]....
What happens is that the only row that gets selected is the second last row of the total rows iny AbstractTableModel object, "CableTableModel"
I have problem with manually (through my java code) selecting items in a JTree. I did Google the problem and found solutions here :
[URL]
This code worked for me only partially. Once I tried selecting deeper nested nodes, I ran into problems. Since my production code is very cluttered I built an example and reproduced my exact problem in it.
It streps through the tree by comparing user objects and finds the target node. Then it calls 'navigateToNode()' which uses the solution discussed in the links above.
This method behaves incosistently:
If you call it with an empty array it will correctly select the root node. The righthand pane shows the text of the selected node. = correct
If you call it with target node 1 it will correctly select node 1. The righthand pane shows the text of the selected node. = correct
If you call it with target node 1.1 it will select node 1.1 but for some reason it is not displayed as marked (no background). The righthand pane shows the text of the selected node. = only partly correct
If you call it with target node A it will run into an exception. Debugging reveals that the selection occurs correclty at first. You can also observe the righthand pane showing that 'A' was selected. But afterwards another TreeselectionEvent is occuring that has a NewLeadSelectionPath of null. I do not know where this second SelectionEvent is triggered from.
This code is run with Java 1.6.0_39 which is also what I will have to use in production.
Is it possible to switch images (on jlabel)on combobox item select. I
If (combobox.selecteditem = value) { SetIcon (resource) // I'm using the default auto generated code used by eclipse when we set an icon for a jlabel in the gui }
How do you make it so that you can select 2 buttons in a radio button group? for example: If I have 7 radio buttons, and I want to be able to select 2 of the 7 instead of 1.
I was wanting to select an item in a comboBox and display it in a text field but all it's doing at the minute is retrieving the first item in the comboBox and placing that in the txt field
String value = (String) comboBoxEnv.getSelectedItem().toString(); if(comboBoxEnv.getSelectedItem()!= null){ txtTo.setText(value);
There is a Jlist(Jlist1) which is populated with the columnNames from MYSQL. Then There is another empty Jlist (Jlist2) which the user can add items from Jlist1. At this stage I want to know how I can select items of JList2 from MYSQL to show in Jtable. Because the columnnames(items) of Jlist2 is less than the Jlist1. Like Spss that when you select variables from available list then you can add some of variable to selected list and do analysis.
I'm trying to figure out how to display a JPANEL and be able to select a file to review it, but off the bat I having problmes figuring out the first steps I have some code how to start properly or what i need to make this work,
import java.io.*; import javax.swing.*; public class checkValue { //create a Dialog box to locate the site file public static String propertiesFilePath; public static JButton siteBrowse = new JButton("Browse"); public static void main(String[] args){
private String displayFormat = "%02d:%02d:%02d";// produces 00:00:00 hour:min:seconds public void timerHasChanged() { currentTime = System.currentTimeMillis(); // How long has been taken so far? long secsTaken = (currentTime - startTime) / 1000; long minsTaken = secsTaken / 60; secsTaken %= 60; long hoursTaken = minsTaken/60; minsTaken %= 60;
Formatter fmt = new Formatter(); fmt.format(displayFormat, hoursTaken, minsTaken, secsTaken); timerJbl.setText(fmt.toString());
How would i code the get and set method for format, so in property tab a user can choose if they want the timer shown in seconds, or minutes or hours or seconds&minutes
I have a JTable which shows pdf files. In Addition I can check if they have errors, if it so I can generate a "report" by clicking the pdf. But the report gives me errors from all of the pdfs in the table. How can I match the error messages to the pdf which I select?
Here is one of the checking methods:
public static void testAllPagesHaveSameRotation(PDFDocument pdf) throws PDFDocumentException { if (SettingsGui.testAllPagesHaveSameRotation.isSelected()) { if (pdf.getPages() == 0) { rotationError = ""; } else { rotationError = "";
I'm currently new to java and I would just like to ask if Socket is sufficient for this file transfer app I'm planning to work on.
The specs are as follows:
~ Move/Copy Files of selected folder/s to a single folder(consolidating them) within the same machine and Network ~ File type will be specified on GUI and those specified will be the ones transferred ~ option to choose Move or Copy of files ~ ability to create/select folder of transfer destination
