JFileChooser filters

Question

I am putting a JFileChooser in my program, but that only takes images. So I decided to add filters:

Code

import javax.swing.*;

public c

You can use FileFilter class and then use setFileFilter()

class ImageFilter extends FileFilter {

@Override
public boolean accept(File pathname) {
  String filename = pathname.getName();
  if (pathname.isDirectory()) {
    return true;

  } else if (filename.endsWith("jpg'") || filename.endsWith("jpeg") || filename.endsWith("png") || filename.endsWith("gif")) {
    return true;
  } else {
    return false;
  }
}

Now in your main class:

fc.setFileFilter(new ImageFilter());
