How does JTree display a file name?

Question

In my project, I am trying to add a file explorer so that the user can select files from a given directory. I want to limit this view to the project root folder (which is user defined). This is very similar to the Eclipses Package Explorer, as the "workspace" is user defined.

Currently the files do not display the full path (from C :) that I want, but all the folders display the full path (which I don’t want, I just want the folder name).

So how does JTree display these names?

I saw that JTree uses the File.tostring () method, but when I implemented my own file and overwrite the toString method, nothing changed.

Here is my code:

import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.io.File;

import javax.swing.JFileChooser;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.JScrollPane;

import java.awt.Container;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.util.Collections;
import java.util.Vector;

import javax.swing.BoxLayout;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.event.TreeSelectionEvent;
import javax.swing.event.TreeSelectionListener;
import javax.swing.tree.DefaultMutableTreeNode;
