Disapointed, JDK6 u3 JFileChooser Still stops while opening directory with large zip/jar/... files

[Qil.Wong]

I've waiting such a long time for jdk6 u3, everything in u2 is good except the file chooser. I noticed that so many many guys criticized the file scanning way in u2, but it seems that in u3 this is a problem still. I cannot develop swing apps with such a file chooser, my customer will kill me.

FWIW, it is STILL that was in the unofficial 1.6_05 update as well.

Hard to believe, but I recently downloaded it and it is true.

Have you commented on the JDK bug report for the issue? I think everyone experiencing this should be writing the bug list about it. I agree it is ridiculous that is hasn't been fixed yet. I haven't upgraded from update 1 because of it. Does anyone have that bug link? I'm sure it is something silly like trying to inspect the archive first or something versus just using mime types. Definitely needs to be fixed....maybe some of us can look into it if a patch hasn't been posted yet. So, if anyone has the link I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,

Wade

Sun squeezed a security patch into the timeline, pushing back what was
update 3.  What was update 3 a few months ago is now update 4; the security
patch became update 3.  If you are wondering about 6511568 or 6578753, I
think they are going to be in update 4.

I feel your pain, as I was waiting on some things as well that had been
pushed back.  I think update 4 is going to be released sometime this month.

Did you check the Sun Java web site whether a bug for this exists
against the JRE?  I'm sure they have an open bug against this and, if it
is really important to you, you could vote for it (or create a new bug
if it's not there already). I'd vote for it too, if you send the URL for
the bug report.

I've looked into jdk bug database, and find that there is a bug report already.

 

http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6584600

 

I hope all guys those need JFileChooser improvement or not but love java to vote this.

 

Thanks!
