public class FileField extends CompletionTextField
This component can be used anywhere a text field requiring the user to enter a filename is used. You should, however, always provide an alternative way of entering a filename (usually a Browse... button that invokes a file chooser.
You can make this field validate that a file name is an existing file as
the user types by setting the setValidateExistingFile(boolean) property
to true. If the field content does not refer to an existing
file, then the field text will be red underlined. By default, this behavior
is off, which makes sense for fields in which the user is specifying a new
file path.

onlyDirectories - if true, this field will only provide
insight for directories. If false, insight will be provided
for both regular files and directories.public final void setValidateExistingFile(boolean validateExistingFile)
If you set this property to true, the text in the field will be painted with a wavy red underline if the file does not exist.
validateExistingFile - if true, then the isTextValid()
method will return true if the text in the field represents
an existing file.#isTextValid()}.public final boolean isValidateExistingFile()
public void setOnlyDirectories(boolean onlyDirectories)
onlyDirectories - whether to only show directories.public final boolean isOnlyDirectories()
public FieldInsightProvider getInsightProvider()
protected boolean isTextValid()
This method will be called periodically to determine whether the current
field contents are valid.
This implementation returns true always, unless the
validateExistingFile property
is true, in which case it returns true if the text in the
field corresponds to a file that exists.
