Checking a file filter

Question

I've managed to create a file saver dialog, with some custom file filters, called JpegSave and PPM save.
I'm trying to check, once a file saver dialog has been created, to check what the current file filter is.
Is it possible to check, by writing some code, whether the current file saver dialog's file filter is a certain file filter?

Answer 1

Thanks, but that doesn't seem to work.
Wouldn't that code just create a new FileFilter and
set it to the current filter?
I'm trying to find out what the current filter is and
check if it is the same as a certain file filter
getFileFilter() returns to you the file filter that is currently in use by the JFileChooser. If you want to compare it with another file filter to see if it is the same, do:
if (filter == getFileFilter()) { .. }
Most likely, though, what you really would want to do is see if it's the same TYPE of file filter. So you'd want to do something like:
if (fileChooser.getFileFilter() instanceof filter.getClass()) { .. }
