How to expose a hidden directory

I don't know if this is the forum to post, but this is my question:)

I want to be able to expose a hidden directory in the JFilechooser . How do I do it?

OS used is linux. I have this .dct directory which is in my home directory

/home/seema/.dct

JFileChooser fileChooser =new JFileChooser("~/.dct")

All the files in /home/seema are displayed. I want it to display only the files in .dct directory

thanx

JFileChooser is a Swing component is it not. I wonder why there is a Swing forum.

I wonder if you'll bother to thank targaryen for his help. I know you usually don't bother to do this, which is why I no longer answer your questions.

Thanks for the heads-up.So, has OP been asking enough questions that he should know how to search the API on his own by now? Especially considering he already knows which class to use and only had to find the appropriate method?

First of all, I would like to thank everyone who has patiently answered to all my postings. Most of the times I do thank the people who help me through the problems , and I really appreciate it. I have learnt a lot as well.

As an example, This is yesterday's posting

http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=684733

where I did definately thank.

To point that I don't thank people , I haven't posted anything in like 4-5 months . Even if you look at my previous postings(beyond 6 months) I have been defn appreciating the help , unless I forgot .

And for today's posting, I was not at my desk all day to check the forums.

But thanks once again, I didn't mean to offend anyone here.
