Question

I want to save a file with user’s choice but there seem a compulsion to give a name in the given field. But I want that user chooses only the location where to save the file.

Is there any another way to do it with or without using the dialogs?

Answer 1

The JFileChooser allows to only select directories, which you can use to allow the user to choose the location without having to specify the file name. See the setFileSelectionMode method

Edit

The following code allows me to just select a directory and hit the OK button

public static void main( String[] args ) {
  EventQueue.invokeLater( new Runnable() {
    @Override
    public void run() {
      JFileChooser chooser = new JFileChooser(  );
      chooser.setFileSelectionMode( JFileChooser.DIRECTORIES_ONLY );
      chooser.showSaveDialog( null );
      System.out.println( chooser.getSelectedFile() );
    }
  } );
}

You could possible opt to already select a default destination. If the default is good enough for most cases, in most cases the user only has to hit the enter key.

If this is not what you mean I am afraid I did not understand your requirement.
