Hi friend,


Plz give full details with source code to solve the problem and specify the technology used Java/Jsp/Servlet/Struts/JSF etc.


Thanks

Thanks for ur concern.I have got my answer to my problem.I made a SSCCE for my problem.It is as below

import java.io.*;
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.filechooser.*;
public class Frame
{
static JTextArea textArea=new JTextArea("",5,40);
static JMenuItem menuItem;
public static void main(String args[])
{

JFrame frame = new JFrame("Notepad");
JMenuBar menuBar;
JMenu menu;
int rows=400,cols=100;

frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

JLabel emptyLabel=new JLabel("");
emptyLabel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(475, 400));
frame.getContentPane().add(emptyLabel, BorderLayout.CENTER);

frame.pack();

menuBar = new JMenuBar();
frame.setJMenuBar(menuBar);

menu = new JMenu("File");
menu.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_F);
menuBar.add(menu);

menuItem = new JMenuItem("Save",KeyEvent.VK_S);
menuItem.setAccelerator(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_S, ActionEvent.CTRL_MASK));
menuItem.addActionListener(new Listener());

menu.add(menuItem);

JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(textArea);
textArea.setEditable(true);

frame.getContentPane().add(scrollPane, BorderLayout.CENTER);
frame.getContentPane().setPreferredSize(new Dimension(rows, cols));

frame.setVisible(true);
}
public static class Listener implements ActionListener
{
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
{
File file;
int returnVal;
int flag;
do
{
flag=0;
final JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser();
file = fc.getSelectedFile();
//here when i put it in do while loop it opens from MY DOCUMENTS which i dont want..it must retain its previous location
returnVal = fc.showSaveDialog(menuItem.getParent());
if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION)
{
try
{
file = fc.getSelectedFile();
String[] files=new File(file.getParent()).list();
for(int i=0;i<files.length;i++)
{
if(files[i].compareTo(file.getName())==0)
{
int response = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null, "File name u gave already exists\ndo u want to replace it now??");
if(response==1)
{
flag=1;
System.out.println("Dont replace file");
}
}
}
}catch(Exception e1){};
}
}while(flag==1);
if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION)
{
try
{
String fileName = file.getName();
Writer output=null;
output=new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(file));
output.write(textArea.getText());
output.close();
}catch(Exception e2){};
}
}
}

}

I every time called a new instance of FileChooser.So i couldn't retain its state.Now i made it an instance so that its state is retained in my entire application.Thanks for reading this....:)
