For video snapshot save, I use OpenCV lib and JFileChooser. Currently when click on snapshot button just open file chooser directory and then write the file name and select the location for Save and then save the image. But now I want to change something after click snapshot button create auto snapshot image name and image save particular location like windows temp folder.
How to create auto snapshot image name and image save on particular location like windows temp folder?
private void jButton3ActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
////////////////snapshot button
int returnVal = jFileChooser1.showSaveDialog(this);
if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
File file = jFileChooser1.getSelectedFile(); //get the path from save dailog
Highgui.imwrite(file.getPath(), frame);// save frame image to this location
} else {
System.out.println("File access cancelled by user.");
}
}
my complate code with change

How to create auto snapshot image name and image save on particular location like windows temp folder?
File f = new File(
System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir"),
String.format("snapshot-%1s.png", System.currentTimeMillis()));
System.out.println(f);
// Continue to save the image in the file 'f'.
After File f = new File( we have the two argument constructor for a file. The two arguments in this case:
System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir") The user's temp directory.String.format("snapshot-%1s.png", System.currentTimeMillis())); That name snapshot- followed by the current time in milliseconds (to prevent multiple images overwriting each other) followed by the . and a file extension (presuming png in this case).Example output:
C:\Users\Andrew\AppData\Local\Temp\snapshot-1497342406054.png
As an aside, that part might apply to a command line app., suggesting your question has nothing to do with Swing - so don't add the Swing tag.
