Falling tests : api/javax_swing/interactive/JFileChooserTests.html#JFileChooser [JFileChooserTest0009]

Method JFileChooser.setFileHidingEnabled(true) does not work on Windows XP if
Windows Explorer "Do not show hidden files and folders" property is set.
JCK1.4a runtime interactive test api/javax_swing/interactive/JFileChooserTests.html#JFileChooser
[JFileChooserTest0009] fails on Windows XP due to this reason.

JFileChooser.setFileHidingEnabled(true) does not depend on Windows Explorer settings on
other Windows systems and the test passes.

Please, do the following steps to reproduce the failure:

1. In Windows Explorer window select "Tools" - "Folder options..." - "View"
2. Set "Do not show hidden files and folders" switch checked
3. Start JFileChooserTests test using the script below
4. Disable file hidding using "File hiding enabled" switch
5. Click "JFileChooserOpenDialog", "JFileChooser Save Dialog" or "JFileChooser Custom Dialog" button
    and try to look for hidden files

It seems like JFileChooser.setFileHidingEnabled(boolean) method behaviour depends on
"Do not show hidden files and folders" and "Hide protected operating system files"
Windows Explorer settings.

Please, do the following steps to reproduce the failure on Windows XP:
1. In Windows Explorer window select "Tools" - "Folder options..." - "View"
2. Set "Do not show hidden files and folders" and "Hide protected operating system
   files" switches set
3. Start JFileChooserTests test using the script below
4. In the test window disable file hidding using "File hiding enabled" switch
5. Click "JFileChooserOpenDialog", "JFileChooser Save Dialog" or "JFileChooser Custom Dialog" button
   and try to look for hidden files.
   Hidden not-system files are present in tested JFileChooserDialog files list, but hidden system files are not.
   Please, note that JFileChooser works correctly with system not-hidden files and they are present in the files list.

I am able to reproduce the failure on Windows 2000 Pro, Windows ME, Windows XP Pro and Windows XP home systems.

If I disable "Hide protected operating system files" property, JFileChooser works correctly.
