I have a method that get text from a JTextArea, create a file and write text on it as code below:
public void createTxt() {
TxtFilter txt = new TxtFilter();
JFileChooser fSave = new JFileChooser();
fSave.setFileFilter(txt);
int result = fSave.showSaveDialog(this);
if(result == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
File sFile = fSave.getSelectedFile();
FileFilter selectedFilter = fSave.getFileFilter();
String file_name = sFile.getName();
String file_path = sFile.getParent();
try{
if(!sFile.exists()) {
sFile.createNewFile();
BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(sFile));
out.write(jTextArea1.getText());
out.close();
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Warning file • " + file_name + " • created succesfully in \n" + file_path);
} else {
String message = "File • " + file_name + " • already exist in \n" + file_path + ":\n" + "Do you want to overwrite?";
String title = "Warning";
int reply = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null, message, title, JOptionPane.YES_NO_OPTION);
if(reply == JOptionPane.YES_OPTION){
sFile.delete();
sFile.createNewFile();
BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(sFile));
out.write(jTextArea1.getText());
out.close();
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "File • " + file_name + " • overwritten succesfully in \n" + file_path);
}
}
}
catch(IOException e) {
System.out.println("Error");
}
}
}
and a txt file filter
public class TxtFilter extends FileFilter{
@Override
public boolean accept(File f){
return f.getName().toLowerCase().endsWith(".txt")||f.isDirectory();
}
@Override
public String getDescription(){
return "Text files (*.txt)";
}
}
The file filter for txt works fine but what I want is to add ".txt" extension when I type file name.
How to I have to modify my code?
I just use this
File fileToBeSaved = fileChooser.getSelectedFile();
if(!fileChooser.getSelectedFile().getAbsolutePath().endsWith(suffix)){
fileToBeSaved = new File(fileChooser.getSelectedFile() + suffix);
}
