JFileChooser 1.5

[Kate Zoy]

I just switch from jsdk1.4.2 to jdk1.5.0, and I'm having issues with a JFileChooser. Even if I do something as simple as this:

JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser();
int returnVal = fc.showOpenDialog( null );
System.out.println( "return is " + returnVal );

the open dialog box doesn't appear. What could fix this? Every reference resource I found online seems to say that this should work.

Thanks,
Kate

this shows OK for me (1.5.0_05)

import javax.swing.*;
class Testing
{
  public Testing()
  {
    JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser();
    int returnVal = fc.showOpenDialog( null );
    System.out.println( "return is " + returnVal );
    System.exit(0);
  }
  public static void main(String[] args) {new Testing();}
}
