java - JFileChooser on OS X

Question

JFileChooser looks nothing like the native widget. I seem to remember reading some hack to get it look like the native widget but searching for it know i can't seem to find it again i came across posts that suggest using java.awt.FileChooser but that class does not seem to be in the distribution. How can i make JFileChooser make look like the native widget?

Answer 1

Take a look at this page. It goes through a lot of UI tweaks, but the third one is most relevant: "Using the JFileChooser to get Mac file and folder icons."
