Java – how to use Jfilechooser to get directory paths?

I have a small java GUI application with a text field on it When the user clicks the text field, an event is triggered and Jfilechooser. Exe is started It is limited to directories

What I want to do is get the full path of the selected directory and put it in the text field

I don't know what to do. I searched a lot of Java tutorials and documents, and I couldn't find the answer Can someone help me?

To clarify, I want to take a complete path as a string and put it in the text field, overwriting anything before

Solution

Try like

myTextField.setText(myFileChooser.getSelectedFile().getAbsolutePath());

What are you doing? Retrieving the file object from the file chooser, grabbing its path and throwing it into the text field
