Constructor Detail

LSFileChooser

public LSFileChooser()
Creates a customisable file chooser. Defaults the file filters to the set of openable file types. If saveable file types are required, make a subsequent call to setDefaultSaveTypes().


LSFileChooser

public LSFileChooser(int type)
Creates a customisable file chooser for selecting files of a particular type.

Parameters:
type - Type of file to select (see FileHandler for possible types).
See Also:
FileHandler
Method Detail

getFileType

public int getFileType()
Reports the type of file chosen by the user. This is identified by the type of filter chosen by the user, not necessarily the file itself.

Returns:
Type of file chosen by user.
See Also:
FileHandler

setFileTypes

public void setFileTypes(int[] types)
Sets the types of file that are choosable.

Parameters:
types - Array of file types that are choosable.

setDefaultOpenTypes

public void setDefaultOpenTypes()
Sets the default file types visible for opening with this chooser.


setDefaultSaveTypes

public void setDefaultSaveTypes(boolean includeRaster,
                                boolean includeVector,
                                boolean includeImage)
Sets the default file types visible for saving with this chooser.

Parameters:
includeRaster - Raster formats included if true.
includeVector - Vector formats included if true.
includeImage - Image formats included if true.

storeLastDirectory

public void storeLastDirectory()
Saves the current directory in the LandSerf properties file. Used so that LandSerf can recall the last directory used between sessions.


getSelectedFile

public File getSelectedFile()
Returns the selected file. This can be set either by the programmer via setFile or by a user action, such as either typing the filename into the UI or selecting the file from a list in the UI. This version forces all files to have an appropriate file extension.

Overrides:
getSelectedFile in class JFileChooser
Returns:
File selected (will always have an appropriate extension).
