Question

I want to make a list with filename from a folder and show all the files that are present in that folder with a particular extension. I want the list to be selectable so that I can select and delete the file from the list or edit it. I know how to select all files from a folder but don’t know how to show it in GUI.

File folder = new File("c:/");
File[] listOfFiles = folder.listFiles();

Answer 1

This example shows how to enumerate the files in a directory and display them in a JToolBar and a JMenu. You can use an Action, such as RecentFile, to encapsulate behavior for use in your ListModel and ListSelectionListener.
