FckEditor Java - order files alphabetically?

I'm using the Java servlet/connector to allow users to select files from the local file system.

Is it possible to order the files alphabetically when displayed in the file browser? They seem to appear in any order at the moment and it's hard to find a desired image when there's lots of them in there.

Yes, it is. Subclass the Connector you are using. Override the method which returns the files, call super on the parent method and sort the returned list.

class MyConnector extends LocaConnector {

  public List<String> getFolders(final ResourceType type,
          final String currentFolder) throws InvalidCurrentFolderException {
    return Collections.sort(super.getFolders(type, currentFolder));
}

}

Great! Thanks for that, I'll give it a try.
