Hello everybody

I am using a filechooser object to select files.

JFileChooser _fileChooser =  new JFileChooser();
File[] selectedfiles = _fileChooser.getSelectedFiles();

for (int i =0 ; i < selectedfiles.length; i++) {
   //path = selectedfiles[i].getCanonicalPath();
   path = selectedfiles[i].getPath();
}

The _fileChooser.getSelectedFiles() returns already absolute path
names. So no matter if I call getPath or getCanocialPath I get the
abosolute path names.

But I want to display symbolic links as relative pathnames.

Is there a way to accomplish this?

Any help I will welcome.

Thanks in advance,
Zoran
