Browse/Upload Button

[Jim Cutler]

How do you create a "Browse/Upload" Button in Java? I want to be able to click on the "Browse" button, upload a folder of files, and have that pathname stored into a textfield.

What do I put under my actionPerformed() method?

Check out JFileChooser.

How do I upload a folder of files? FileChooser only allows me to upload one individual file.

You can use it to get a File or an array of File. Please look at the API for File and you'll see that it can represent a single File or directories. In fact the very first line in the API states that File is:

An abstract representation of file and directory pathnames.

So it should work fine for you if you let it.
