I/O Classes

[Swati Gupta]

Is there is any good thread/link about the constructors for I/O classes.
Its really difficult to remember and confusing.

swati-
Have you tried using our handy dandy search utility? You can search for all sorts of terms within in this or ANY forum.
Check it out -- it might be faster than waiting for someone else to find a helpful thread for you.

Download Chapter 18 from Khalid Mughal's SCJP Preparation Book:
http://www.ii.uib.no/~khalid/pgjc/jcbook/sample-chapters.html
I found it very useful

Hi,
I agree with Jamal. The URL which he posted for IO is quite good for reading.
Apart from that, you still need to practice some codes on IO.

Is chp 18 from mughal sufficient for the exam preparation?(for I/O).
Is there any other notes/books that u would recommend?

[Swati Gupta]

Thanks Jessica. The search utility is really helpful. But I realise that I am again spending a lot of time reading threads.
I have gone the I/O chapter in KAM but the problem is that its hard to remember and I get when I try solving the mock exams. I will try writing more codes
Thanks.

Yup. There's lots there and it's plenty for the exam.

Obviously, other texts (such as RHE) will cover this topic as well, but the sample chapter above has everything you'll need and then some.

Swati,
I really struggled with I/O but this Link helped me to clear my doubts. Chapter 10/11/21/22/23 and chapter 82 to 87. Khalid is good compared to RHE in I/O , probably need more revisions.

Have you tried the Java Tutorial ?
and the masterpiece Thinking in Java ?

What worked for me, was to just write down all the IO classes, and then just go to the API documentation on the Sun site and figure out the hierarchy myself, instead of copying out and trying to memorise someone elses chart.
You can also make a list of what constructors take what types of I/O classes. I made a tree similar to this:
OutPutStreamWriter(InputStream in, String encoding)
|
|-> FileWriter(File f, or String s, opt. boolean append)
...etc.
I found that a lot simpler than going through chapters to figure out how it all works together. Once you've got it memorized in a form like this, then go through a chapter on it again, and you will learn a lot more!
Hope this helps!

thanks everyone.
