We would like to know how to handle action event for JFileChooser.
import java.io.File; /*from w ww . j a v a 2s . co m*/ import javax.swing.JFileChooser; public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { final JFileChooser chooser = new JFileChooser(new File(".")) { public void approveSelection() { if (getSelectedFile().exists()) { super.approveSelection(); } else System.out.println("File doesn't exist"); } }; chooser.addActionListener(e -> System.out.println(e)); chooser.setSelectedFile(new File("something.txt")); int returnVal = chooser.showSaveDialog(null); if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) { System.out.println(chooser.getSelectedFile()); } } }
