I am putting a JFileChooser
in my program, but that only takes images. So I decided to add filters:
import javax.swing.*;
public class fileChooser {
public static void main(String[] args) {
JPanel panel = new JPanel();
final JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser();
int file = fc.showOpenDialog(panel);
fc.addChoosableFileFilter(new ImageFilter());
fc.setAcceptAllFileFilterUsed(false);
}
}
I got that straight from the Java tutorials. But Eclipse underlines the following as an error:
fc.addChoosableFileFilter(new ImageFilter());
fc.setAcceptAllFileFilterUsed(false);
Any suggestions?

For a list of types supported by that JRE on that OS, use ImageIO
.
FileFilter imageFilter = new FileNameExtensionFilter(
"Image files", ImageIO.getReaderFileSuffixes());
bmp
jpg
jpeg
wbmp
png
gif
Note: don't hard-code that list! It might change from version to version, and OS to OS. E.G.
That list would have many more formats if jai was installed.
