[ JDK VERSION : 1.6.0_02 ] When I create or open project I have the "pumped up" file browser. But e.g. when I am in the "Java Sources Classpath" of a project properties and click on "Add JAR/Folder..." I get just a regular file browser. It would be nice to have some of the additional features of the "pumped up" version at other places in NB too.
It is because "Add JAR/Folder..." uses filechooser provided by jdk instead of core|filechooser. I am passing this issue to java|project.
The openide/ui is the right component. The client cannot affect which file chooser is used, it's decided for the whole IDE, the client just uses JFileChooser. The NB view is not available now for mixed mode (chooser for files + directories).
