Sorry, you're right, I meant JFileChooser.
But the solution isn't clear for me yet.
Can I put a JFileChooser object without writing Java code, but only 
using xml?
The number of swixml tag is small and  there are several swing 
components I don't know
how to obtain.
When you wrote the tag filechooser, it is my own tag, isn't it?
