Problem while disposing JFileChooser

[Piyush Tripathi]

Hi i am calling JFileChooser from a class which extends JFileChooser. I have to add the funtionality for file overwrite error message. In the class which extends the file chooser i am overriding method approveSelection() in which i am checking whether the file already exists.My problem is when the the JOption dialog for YES/NO/CANCEL appears when i want to overwrite the file i am pressing yes option but the JFileChooser dialog is not disposing off.

Following is a method from where i am calling the class which extends JFileChooser :

   
private void saveFile() 
	{
		MyFileChooser chooser=new MyFileChooser(); //class which extends JFilechooser
		chooser.setDialogType(JFileChooser.SAVE_DIALOG);
		chooser.setAcceptAllFileFilterUsed(false);
		FileNameExtensionFilter  filter=new FileNameExtensionFilter(".pdf",new String[]{"*.pdf"});
		FileNameExtensionFilter  filter1=new FileNameExtensionFilter(".jpg",new String[]{"*.jpg"});
		chooser.addChoosableFileFilter(filter);
		chooser.addChoosableFileFilter(filter1);
		chooser.showSaveDialog(this);
		
		
	}



 

Following is a class in which i am overriding the approveSelection method :

 public class MyFileChooser extends JFileChooser {

public void approveSelection()
{
.
.
.
.
String tempPath=path.substring(0,path.lastIndexOf("\\"));
int reply=JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(this, "File " + f.getName()+" already exists in the location " + tempPath + ".\nDo you want to overwrite it.","File Exists",JOptionPane.YES_NO_CANCEL_OPTION);
					
if(reply==JOptionPane.YES_OPTION)
   {
				       
	 //SOME OPERATIONS		

}

else{
 //SOME OPERATIONS

}
		



}

Do you call super.approveSelection() if the file can be overridden? I did the same in one of my classes, and that works just fine (acceptFilter is a java.io.FileFilter):

@Override
public void approveSelection()
{
    if (acceptFilter != null)
    {
        if (isMultiSelectionEnabled())
        {
            File[] files = getSelectedFiles();
            for (File file: files)
            {
                if (!acceptFilter.accept(file))
                {
                    // return to prevent default behaviour
                    return;
                }
            }
            // all files are accepted - continue
        }
        else
        {
            File file = getSelectedFile();
            if (!acceptFilter.accept(file))
            {
                // return to prevent default behaviour
                return;
            }
            // the file is accepted - continue
        }
    }
    super.approveSelection();
}
