FileBro is a basic GUI based File Browser.

FileBro Functionality

  • Directory tree - shows the file system roots at start-up, but is otherwise built lazily as the user browses around the file system. FileBro displays a progress bar as it is loading new entries.
  • The file list (a table) displays a list of the directories and files in the current directory tree selection. Sort by clicking on the column header.
  • Buttons - all use the Desktop class for their functionality. If the action cannot be completed, a meaningful reason should by displayed in a JEditorPane error message.
    • Locate - opens the parent directory of the currently selected file.
    • Open - launches whatever application is the default consumer for that file type.
    • Edit - opens the file for edit in the default consumer.
    • Print - prints the file using the default consumer.
  • Details on the selected file are displayed below the buttons.

Does the current functionality work as per above description?

/**
A basic File Browser.  Requires 1.6+ for the Desktop & SwingWorker
classes, amongst other minor things.

Includes support classes FileTableModel & FileTreeCellRenderer.

@TODO Bugs
<li>Fix keyboard focus issues - especially when functions like
rename/delete etc. are called that update nodes & file lists.
<li>Needs more testing in general.

@TODO Functionality
<li>Double clicking a directory in the table, should update the tree
<li>Move progress bar?
<li>Add other file display modes (besides table) in CardLayout?
<li>Menus + other cruft?
<li>Implement history/back
<li>Allow multiple selection
<li>Add file search

Also

  • Here are 2 icons for the app. (but it will run OK without them). They will be used if found in the same directory as the classes. The icons use Color.WHITE to represent unselected table rows & tree nodes, so those are invisible in a web page with white background. ;)

This code concerns me:

  SwingWorker worker = new SwingWorker() {
     @Override
     public String doInBackground() {
        tree.setEnabled(false);
        progressBar.setVisible(true);
        progressBar.setIndeterminate(true);
        File file = (File) node.getUserObject();
        if (file.isDirectory()) {
           File[] files = fileSystemView.getFiles(file, true);
           if (node.isLeaf()) {
              for (File child : files) {
                 if (child.isDirectory()) {
                    node.add(new DefaultMutableTreeNode(child));
                 }
              }
           }
           setTableData(files);
        }
        progressBar.setIndeterminate(false);
        progressBar.setVisible(false);
        tree.setEnabled(true);
        return "done";
     }
  };
  worker.execute();

as you're making Swing calls to a JProgressBar off of the EDT. Best to start the progress bar before the SwingWorker and end it in the done method. Either that or add a PropertyChangeListener to the SwingWorker and end the progress bar when the worker's state property is StateValue.DONE.

Another issue is that you're using a DefaultMutableTreeNode, and per the API, concurrency care must be taken when using this since you do appear to be using this in more than one thread:

This is not a thread safe class.If you intend to use a DefaultMutableTreeNode (or a tree of TreeNodes) in more than one thread, you need to do your own synchronizing. A good convention to adopt is synchronizing on the root node of a tree.

EDIT
One way to possibly get DefaultMutableTreeNode at least out of the equation is to add nodes to it in one thread only, the EDT, by using SwingWorker's publish/process. For example:

   private void showChildren(final DefaultMutableTreeNode node) {
      tree.setEnabled(false);
      progressBar.setVisible(true);
      progressBar.setIndeterminate(true);

      SwingWorker<Void, File> worker = new SwingWorker<Void, File>() {
         @Override
         public Void doInBackground() {
            File file = (File) node.getUserObject();
            if (file.isDirectory()) {
               File[] files = fileSystemView.getFiles(file, true); //!!
               if (node.isLeaf()) {
                  for (File child : files) {
                     if (child.isDirectory()) {
                        publish(child);
                     }
                  }
               }
               setTableData(files);
            }
            return null;
         }

         @Override 
         protected void process(List<File> chunks) {
            for (File child : chunks) {
               node.add(new DefaultMutableTreeNode(child));
            }
         }

         @Override
         protected void done() {
            progressBar.setIndeterminate(false);
            progressBar.setVisible(false);
            tree.setEnabled(true);
         }
      };
      worker.execute();
   }

  • \$\begingroup\$ It is the call to fileSystemView.getFiles(file, true); that is the problem - it takes some time for drives that have been powered down, or the Network folder. It stands to reason that if I should not be updating GUI elements in the doInBG() method, I also should not be adding nodes to the tree. Right? Or does the last para. & quote address that problem? \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ @HFOE: Implemented your more rigorous treatment of SwingWorker. Have not seen any NPEs since (fingers crossed). See edit for latest code. As to the stacktraces, they never indicated a line in FileManager.java, they were so infrequent that I would often only realize they occurred as the CLI was disappearing from behind the closing app. Always either an AIOOBE on the table or NPE on table or tree. I suspect they are now sorted. \$\endgroup\$

\$\begingroup\$

Mac OS X 10.5 and Ubuntu 10.04: Repeated non-fatal NPE on delete.

Addendum: In line 441, findTreePath() always returns null, because currentFile.getParentFile() returns the path to the file, not the file itself. In effect, the path cannot match itself. I don't see an obvious work-around.

Addendum: I am unable to find an acceptable solution. I suspect the problem revolves around the dichotomy between view (JTree) and model (DefaultTreeModel). In particular, findTreePath() is searching among visible rows rather than the nodes of the tree model. It may prove useful to implement TreeModel explicitly, as shown in this FileTreeModel. It may also help to abstract view-model conversion methods analogous to those provided by JTable.

As an alternative approach, consider org.netbeans.swing.outline.Outline, pictured below. It accepts the FileTreeModel, mentioned earlier. By extending JTable, it uses the familiar renderer and editor schema via a convenient RowModel interface similar to TableModel. Most importantly, it provides convertRowIndexToModel(), as well as convertRowIndexToView(). The JTable method getValueAt() is overridden to call convertRowIndexToModel(), making the selection listener in this example straightforward. The JAR is independent, small (~230 KiB) and stable; it may be found in the NetBeans distribution:

NetBeans/platform/modules/org-netbeans-swing-outline.jar

outline view

Addendum: FileBrowser version 2011-06-08 operates correctly on both systems cited above.

  • \$\begingroup\$ I've never seen an application that dynamically changes the icon of the frame. Would this not be confusing if you are trying to find your applicaton by icon on the task bar or when you use Alt-tab to find the application. I would suggest you can just create a FileManager icon and not change it. \$\endgroup\$

This is the last edit of the code before I decided to turn FileMan(ager) into FileBro(wser) (FileBro is coming to an edit on the original question, 'real soon now'). This version of FileMan is posted here for the benefit of the people who want to extend this (very incomplete, buggy) code in that direction.

/**
A basic File Manager.  Requires 1.6+ for the Desktop & SwingWorker
classes, amongst other minor things.

Includes support classes FileTableModel & FileTreeCellRenderer.

@TODO Bugs
<li>Still throws occasional AIOOBEs and NPEs, so some update on
the EDT must have been missed.
<li>Fix keyboard focus issues - especially when functions like
rename/delete etc. are called that update nodes & file lists.
<li>Needs more testing in general.

@TODO Functionality
<li>Implement Read/Write/Execute checkboxes
<li>Implement Copy
<li>Extra prompt for directory delete (camickr suggestion)
<li>Add File/Directory fields to FileTableModel
<li>Double clicking a directory in the table, should update the tree
<li>Move progress bar?
<li>Add other file display modes (besides table) in CardLayout?
<li>Menus + other cruft?
<li>Implement history/back
<li>Allow multiple selection
<li>Add file search

Addendum

In the end I decided that I did not need anything more than a file browser. When it came to managing files, simply opening the parent directory & using the OS' inbuilt functionality to make new files, rename them, copy or delete them, as well as change the flags, would suffice.

That not only got rid of many of the remaining bugs, but also removed any possibility that a user's lawyers might contact me about how my software deleted everything on their client's LAN when they asked it to delete a symbolic link. ;)

Andrew, it looks good. I use XP and JDK6.07 and haven't had any problems when browsing or using New/Delete/Rename functionality.

A couple of comments:

  1. The Icon header and all the check box headers are truncated and show "...". The following fixed it for me:

    //            width = (int)preferred.getWidth()+10;  
                  width = (int)preferred.getWidth()+14;
    
  2. I found the reading the text of a selected node difficult. It is black text on a dark blue background. The JTable was much easier to read with white text on a dark blue background. I see the default tree renderer also supports text selection/non-selection colours.

  3. If you really want to give users a bang for their buck, then maybe when deleting a directory you can prompt the user to see if they want to delete all the files first before deleting the directory.

There is a bug: when the table is sorted, the mapping between the selection model row index and the table model row index is broken and the buttons end up operating on other files.

The ListSelectionListener should correct that:

int row = table.getSelectionModel().getLeadSelectionIndex();
RowSorter sorter = table.getRowSorter();
if ( sorter != null ) {
    row = sorter.convertRowIndexToModel( row );                            
}

It works on WinXP and Win2008_64b (JRE64b) and everything looks correct. For deepest tests, just click on each accessible Components, without any errors.

But as I mentioned, selection on Network hanged (on WinXP, no errors, killed from IDE), JProgresBar too, in contrast with win2008, there ProgresBar works and just short time and diplay right contents of network tree.

Network_WinXP _SP3  JRE 1.6.025

My assumption about the Active Directory daemon (next only AD) is that I have local admin access for Intranet and it looks like as from end user PC by local admin account AD some*** restricted view for Network's tree, AD some*** managed this access, and I can't access the AD setting because that's an outsourced service.

  1. WinXP SP3 SK LanguagePack (that isn't full localizations as Spain, Germany, ...) logged here by a local admin account click to Network icon in JTree died without any errors as I described twice.

  2. Win7 64b SK (sorry no time for deepest analyses, only logged here by local admin account and runs your child out of console) icon in JTree returns null to the JTable and click by Open JButton and returns just a Win7 error.

    FilemanNetworkWin7.JPG

  3. Win2008 is access managed by AD accessible context, because there isn't possible to create local account (internal rules).
