Are you sure that this is a standard Java API class?
If not, then please post the code necessary to understand your question (source of FileNameExtensionFilter and it's driver class(es)).

Yeah, for Java 6. I need the same functionality for Java5.
The source is:
protected FileFilter createFileFilter(String description, boolean showExtensionInDescription, String... extensions) {
if (showExtensionInDescription) {
description = createFileNameFilterDescriptionFromExtensions(
description, extensions);
}
return new FileNameExtensionFilter(description, extensions);
}

I see. I would suggest simply download it's source, and insert it into your project, but into a different package from the original, so you won't have problems if you upgrade your Java version later.
An example is here
It is quite well documented as well.

Thanks a lot. I used your suggestion in my project yesterday and it works well.
Thanks once more smile.gif
