Re: FileDialog vs JFileChooser

t's not necessarily the case that the JFileChooser is better than the FileDialog because it's newer, they are simply two different implementations with very different design intentions and constraints.

Generally we steer folks towards the FileDialog, even in Swing applications, assuming they want something as close to the native platform's look as possible. Is there additional functionality you use with JFileChoosers that you notice missing with the FileDialog?

I am so tired of anyone from Apple making it sound like the JFileChooser implementation is fine the way it is... For Goodness's sake, wake up people. Missing functionality in FileDialog? Come on...
