When I open a JFileChooser. If I SINGLE click a directory and click the Open button. Then I got return $paths/selected_directory. That is good! However if I DOUBLE click a directory and click the Open button. Then I got return $paths/selected_directory/selected_directory Why I got selected_directory twice from return? Is this a bug or I missed somethings? Do you have a solution for that? Thank Q very much in advance!

Then I got return $paths/selected_directory/selected_directory It was: $paths/selected_directory/another_selected_directory(or file) and a normal behavior of the JFileChooser GUI.

When you double click, you enter that directory, but the name stays in the text field. The name staying in the text field is definitely what causes your described behavior. <sscce> import javax.swing.*; public class FileChoo { public static void main(String[] args) { final JFileChooser jFileChooser = new JFileChooser(); jFileChooser.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.FILES_AND_DIRECTORIES); jFileChooser.showOpenDialog(null); System.out.println("file = " + jFileChooser.getSelectedFile()); } } </sscce> Back to top Andrew Thompson Guest Posted: Thu May 17, 2007 7:10 am    Post subject: Re: Is this a bug in javax.swing.JFileChooser?

If it is $paths/selected_directory/another_selected_directory_or_file that is a normal behavior of the JFileChooser GUI.

Sun says this is how it has to be and closed all related bug reports. Back to top Steve W.

Now back it up with some examples of what's broken. I've been using it successfully for some years now and don't find any major issues with it. -- Steve W.

In all combinations of single or double clicks, the chooser correctly identified the directory I was opening. On RedHat Linux, Java 5, I was able to reproduce the OP's "problem". So, apparently its been fixed in 1.6. Daniel. Back to top ..::WojT::.. Guest Posted: Fri May 18, 2007 7:11 am    Post subject: Re: Is this a bug in javax.swing.JFileChooser? Quote: Nice opinion.
