How to create a simple folder chooser with swing like this?-CodePudding

I'm learning java swing recently. Please don't tell me it's out of date. I know. I want to create a folder selector like this, there is nothing extra.

Instead of the following, there are many other elements on it

CodePudding user response：

java swing has a jfilechooser which you can use. refer Java Swing Here

CodePudding user response：

You can use JavaFX:

DirectoryChooser directoryChooser = new DirectoryChooser();
directoryChooser.setInitialDirectory(new File("src"));

Button button = new Button("Select Directory");
button.setOnAction(e -> {
    File selectedDirectory = directoryChooser.showDialog(primaryStage);
    System.out.println(selectedDirectory.getAbsolutePath());
 });

Javadoc: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/10/docs/api/javafx/stage/DirectoryChooser.html

It does indeed call the Windows browse for folder dialog:
