Hi so right now I have a file chooser in my controller class that should be working okay except for the last line(its just passing null to the initialize class) so I am not sure how to pass the file as a String to the initialize method

public void openFile() throws IOException{ FileChooser fileChooser = new FileChooser(); fileChooser.setTitle("Open Photo File"); fileChooser.getExtensionFilters().addAll( new FileChooser.ExtensionFilter("TEXT files (*.txt),(*.csv)", "*.txt", "*.csv")); File selectedFile = fileChooser.showOpenDialog(new Popup()); if(selectedFile !=null){ p.initialize(fileName); }

---------------------------------------------------------------

public void initialize(String fileName) { File file = new File(fileName); try { Scanner fin = new Scanner(file); while (fin.hasNextLine()) { lines.add(fin.nextLine()); } fin.close(); } catch (FileNotFoundException e) { System.out.println(file.getAbsolutePath() + " does not exists"); } }
