FilterInputStream

[geetha]

Hi,
What are the valid arguments for the FilterInputStream constructor?
A.File
B.FileInputStream
C.DataInputStream
D.BufferedInputStream
E.FileReader
F.BufferedWriter
G.InputStreamReader
F.None of the above
My nas is:none of the above.
according to API it takes only InputStream but when I tried the prog with B,C,D as arguments for FilterInputStream compiler is saying that "no constructor matching found".Moreover we cannot insttantiate a FilterInputStream as the conctructor of it is protected.
Am I correct???

Geetha,
A is correct. FileInputStream has a constructor which take a File object as a parameter.
The other two constructors take a FileDescriptor object and a String object respectively.
Refer to the API for more details.

I'm sorry Geeta. I mistook that for FileInputStream.
