17.7 Opening Files with JFileChooser
Class JFileChooser displays a dialog (known as the JFileChooser dialog) that enables the user to easily select files or directories. To demonstrate this dialog, we enhance the example in Section 17.3, as shown in Figs. 17.20–17.21. The example now contains a graphical user interface, but still displays the same data as before. The constructor calls method analyzePath in line 34. This method then calls method getFile in line 68 to retrieve the File object.
