My requirement is that there is a browse button on my UI.When I select a directory and press Open,then using the selected path a tree structure should appear.The parent/root directory will start from the folder that I selected.
Eg: If I select c:/mydocuments/myfiles,then the root for the tree will be myfiles and then it should show all its children in the tree.
Presently in swings JTree can be used to generate a tree structure but for doing this we need to make a list and then supply it to the JTree.
In my scenario,it becomes difficult as everytime I need to generate a list the moment path changes.
So i want to know that in java do we have anything like jqueryfiletree which takes the absolute path and generates the tree automatically.
You do not need to make a list. You should just have code that can generate a TreeModel
based on a file path.
And that code is available on a lot of locations on the internet. For example in this Sun JTree

Another nice example is the 'File Browser GUI' from Andrew Thompson who is also active on this site
