Michael Wooten updated IO-229:
------------------------------

    Attachment: varargs-and-or-filters.patch

This patch was generated using Eclipse. The patch replaces the 
AndFileFilter(IOFileFilter, IOFileFilter) constructor with a 
AndFileFilter(IOFileFilter...) one, and likewise for OrFileFilter. The utility 
methods in FileFilterUtils have also been updated to accept a variable number 
of arguments. Minor changes were made to the test cases to test accepting more 
than two arguments.

> I suggest converting the AndFileFilter(IOFileFilter filter1, IOFileFilter 
> filter2) and OrFileFilter(IOFileFilter filter1, IOFileFilter filter2) 
> constructors to use varargs and instead have the signatures 
> AndFileFilter(IOFileFilter... filters) and OrFileFilter(IOFileFilter... 
> filters). The benefit is that new And/OrFileFilters could be created without 
> having to create a list or limit the initial number of filters to two.
> Ex: 
> IOFileFilter hiddenNonEmptyTextFileFilter = new 
> AndFileFilter(HiddenFileFilter.HIDDEN, EmptyFileFilter.NOT_EMPTY, new 
> SuffixFileFilter(".txt"));
> If backwards compatibility is an issue, then the varargs constructors could 
> be added alongside the two argument constructors.
