Hi *,
On the Java tutorial website at [1], there is the following text about the
JFileChooser we use everywhere:
«Note: If you intend to distribute your program as an unsigned JavaT Web
Start application, then instead of using the JFileChooser API you should use
the file services provided by the JNLP API. These services - FileOpenService
and FileSaveService - not only provide support for choosing files in a
restricted environment, but also take care of actually opening and saving
them. An example of using these services is in JWSFileChooserDemo.
Documentation for using the JNLP API can be found in the Java Web Start
lesson. »
If you run the demo at [2] (on Windows), then you see one big benefit: you
get the native file chooser from the Windows, instead of the limited generic
Java implementation.
Now my question: Should we adapt?
If so, I can start by creating an issue for this...
