How to set the initial directory

866629Oct 30 2011 — edited Oct 30 2011

Using the FileChooser in JavaFX 2.0. How do you correctly set the initial directory?

In Swing you would do the following:

JFileChooser Choose = new JFileChooser();
Choose.setCurrentDirectory(new File("."));

But in JavaFX:

Choose.setInitialDirectory(new File("."));

does not work and causes JavaFX to bomb out when this code is triggered.
