JFileChooser and Native OpenFile Dialog(win32)
Hello there,
I have a question. On windows platform.
In the SWING components, I have used the JFileChooser,
and I try to do a MultiFile-Select, it works but not like the Native Windows,
OpenFile DialogBox.
When you select multiple files with JFileChooser you must do 'Key Presses'
of cntrl+shift then select files one by one.
In the Native windows OpenFile Dialog one can do a mouse "DRAG-SELECT"
of files.
When I did some research I found many different theories.
1) It can't be done/its too hard/ it will be fixed in Java7
2) AWT:FileChooser brings up Native dialogs of windows.
In regards to (2) above I looked into it, and it doesn't seem to be the case.
In fact I could not find a way to make it do multi-File select at all.
Also the AWT:FileChooser doesn't even exist in NetBeans IDE ver.6.5
So if anybody can help me on this it will be greatly appreciated!!!
Sincerely,
Paluee
