Class SipCommFileFilter

java.lang.Object
  javax.swing.filechooser.FileFilter
      net.java.sip.communicator.util.swing.SipCommFileFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:

FilenameFilter

Direct Known Subclasses:

ImagePickerDialog.ImageFileFilter, SoundFilter, WhiteboardFileFilter

public abstract class SipCommFileFilter
extends FileFilter
implements FilenameFilter

The purpose of this interface is to provide an generic file filter type for the SipCommFileChooser, which is used either as an AWT FileDialog, either as a Swing JFileChooser. Both of these dialogs use their own filter type, FileFilter (class) for JFileChooser and FilenameFilter (interface) for FileDialog. SipCommFileFilter acts as both an implementation and an heritage from these two filters. To use a your own file filter with a SipCommFileChooser, you just have to extend from SipCommFileFilter and redefine at least the method 'public boolean accept(File f)' which is described in the Java FileFilter class. You won't have to redefine 'public boolean accept(File dir, String name)' from the Java FilenameFilter interface since it's done here: the method is transfered toward the accept method of Java FileFilter class.
