Swing/AWT/SWT :: Setting File Name For JFileChooser Save Dialog
Aug 9, 2001
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 have an application that has a text field I want to use Jfilechooser to save or save As the data.
If the file already exisits i want the end user to be able to hit save without the dialog box popping up asking for a file name folder etc, like it would in MS Word etc..
Is this possible?

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.

How to force browser to open/save/save as the file from server instead of browser cache.
I am creating a csv file through a pl/sql procedure and forwarding the link to user once user clicks on link he downloads the file, however if the same thing is repeated then browser returns the old cached file instead of new file generated on server.

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();

New to programming. Am supposed to create a program that reads a text file (of integers) and computes a series of computations on these integers. I don't have the code for the integers in my code yet, (i know how to do those), but am struggling getting the array to simply print in the print writer. I have the user select a text file, read the file with a scanner, and then save the computations done from my code into another file. specifically, the problem is as follows: Write a program that uses a file chooser dialog to select a file containing some integers. The file contains an integer N followed by N integers. The program then uses a file chooser dialog to let the user specify the name and location of an output file to write results to.The data written to the output file will be as follows
(1) The original list of N numbers from the input file,
(2) The original list of N numbers printed in reverse order of how they appear
in the input file.
(3) The sum and average of these numbers,
(4) The minimum of all the numbers,
(5) The maximum of all the numbers.

The below program ask the user to enter the value of x 1 , Y 1 and radius in separate boxes , What would look nice is if the user can Enter the Value X ,Y and radius in the same box.
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class C3E29GeometryTwoCircles {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Ask the user to enter the x1 coordinate.
String strNumber = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter the value of x1 coordinate " );
double x1 = Double.parseDouble(strNumber);
strNumber = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter the value of y1 coordinate " );
double y1 = Double.parseDouble(strNumber);

I need to validate an input box so that the user can enter only round numbers.
The user can't enter any other characters except 0 to 9, they shouldn't be able to enter decimal points either.
They would be answering questions like, 'What is 7 times 8?'
Also, I need to validate it so that the program doesnt crash if they leave the input box blank or empty.

I wish to display a progress bar during a lengthy file translation process. When I created a ProgressBar class to do this and tested it with a short test program, it seemed to work fine. But when I add my ProgressBar class to a package containing various other classes, put that package in a jar file, and then execute the class using the progress bar from a menu in my main program, the frame of the progress bar shows up with the appropriate caption but the JLabel, JProgressBar, and JButton are not displayed. I have gone over my code numerous times and checked that the ProgressBar class constructor is getting the proper arguments.
// package gov.nasa.jpl.ephemeris;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
/**
* Progress bar with message text above the bar and a Cancel button below it
*/
public class ProgressBar extends JFrame {
private boolean _cancelled = false;
private JProgressBar _progressBar = null;
[Code] ....
I have also been wondering whether I need a separate instance of the border for each panel, or whether I can just create one instance and use it for all three panels.

I am rather new to Swing, and I am building a game right now in which I need to display a pop-up window as a reminder for what commands exist within the game. I created a class extending JFrame for this and added all the information I need. However, for some reason, no matter how many different ways I try to set the size of this window (setSize(w, h), pack(), using a different layout, adding the compnents to a JPanel first and setting the preffered size of that, then adding the JPanel to the JFrame), it doesn't work. Instead of a window of my requested size, I get a tiny, maybe 100 x 100 pixel window that needs to be resized in order for its contents to be visible.
import java.awt.FlowLayout;
import java.awt.Font;
import java.awt.GridLayout;
import java.awt.Toolkit;
import java.awt.event.WindowAdapter;
import java.awt.event.WindowEvent;

Recently I have been working on an executable launcher. I tried to get the executable icons and set them on the JButtons. Still there are some problems. Here is a part of the code:
try {
button[i].setIcon(FileSystemView.getFileSystemView().getSystemIcon(new File(getConfig("path." + (i+1)))));
}
catch (NullPointerException ex) {
}
Here the getConfig() method is already defined to get a string in a "properties" file. However, the icons are very small and they don't fill the entire button.
How can the icon fill the entire button (for example, having a custom size of 48x48, or automatically filled the button)? The frame will not be resized.
Here is the whole code...
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.image.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.io.File.*;

The question is Write a program that displays all the numbers from 100 to 1000, ten per line, that are divisible by 5 and 6. and separated by exactly a space.
My assignment requirements are to display this in Dialog Box / message box . I have written this code so far
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class Exercise04_10 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int count = 1;
for (int i = 100; i <= 1000; i++)
if (i % 5 == 0 && i % 6 == 0)
How to display the output in dialog box?

I want to calculate the height of a dialog that contain only a table depending on how many rows that table it has so I'm using the cross multiplication rule.For example i check initially that my table is well fitting into the dialog(Without space at the bottom) for some value and after that i use the cross multiplication rule because data are dynamic.But unfortunately this rule does not solve the problem.What's the best rule for fitting a dynamic table inside a dialog or a frame? Here is my code.
public class FlowLayoutChangingGap {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// just for testing perpose but data are getting from database and it's dynamic
Object[][] data = {
{ "Kathy", "Smith", "Snowboarding", new Integer(5) },
{ "John", "Doe", "Rowing", new Integer(3) },

I am making use of NetBeans IDE 8.0 to build a GUI. The idea is that I set multiple values received from textfields to textarea. This will enable me print the work. But ONLY ONE value from textfields is set(appear on textarea); the others do not appear at all. Below is example of what I mean:
String s = jTextField1.getText();
JTextArea1.setText(s);
String x =
jTextField2.getText();
JTextArea1.setText(x);
Only one is being set. The rest are not.

What I'm trying to do is show a loginscreen. After logging in it should show another contentpane with actual content.
This is my main class:
public class Project extends JFrame
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
JFrame frame = new Project ();
JPanel paneel = new Paneel ();
frame.setSize (800, 600);
[Code] ....
The compiler gives me an error when I try to refer to "frame". What I've tried to do is refer to frame by using
Project.frame but it still gives me the same error. The compiler shows the message that it cannot find "frame" in class Project, but that's exactly where it is!
Is there a simple way to make this work? I've read about threads and loops but they don't seem the most basic solution. Maybe there's a way to get the current frame so I can use that?
