In my application, the user chooses a file for which JFileChooser is used. It so happens that if the folder name is in some other language, then it doesn't detect that folder.
For example: On the desktop, if the folder name is spillet sitt på er helt (norweigian), then all the folders are displayed by the JFileChooser apart from the above folder mentioned. How do I deal with this issue?
PS: It turns out that this issue is only on Mac. Works well on windows.
It is a known issue (find here the bug status report).
It seems it has been eventually fixed in 7u10, 7u11 and 7u12+ updates.
For these updates haven't been oficially released, if you can't wait, you can download the Developers Review Releases at java.net.
