Class JFileImageChooser

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    ImageObserver, MenuContainer, Serializable, Accessible

    public class JFileImageChooser
    extends JFileChooser
    A file chooser dialog for common raster image format files. It provides static methods to display the dialog for opening or saving an image file. The file formats offered by the dialog are a subset of those supported by ImageIO on the host system.
    
     // Prompting for an input image file
     File file = JFileImageChooser.showOpenFile();
     if (file != null) {
         ...
     }
    
     // Prompting for a file name to save an image
     File file = JFileImageChooser.showSaveFile();
     if (file != null) {
         ...
     }
