Description
http://java.net/jira/browse/MACOSX_PORT-535 submitted 2011/10/11 by Dmitry Cherepanov
In JDK7 FileDialog's API allows to enable multiple file selection:
public void setMultipleMode(boolean enable);
public File[] getFiles();
but the API is unimplemented in macosx-port right now.
Comments
EVALUATION This functionality needs to be implemented.
