The extension Strings are provided to the constructor (no configuration of initialized instance provided yet) and have to be the sole extension without the dot.

This class is most often used to configure JFileChooser dialogs. Therefore it accepts all directories to allow browsing.

Example usage:

... JFileChooser fileChooser = new JFileChooser(); FileFilter soundFileFilter = new FileFilterExtensions(new String[]{"wav","mp3"}); fileChooser.setFileFilter(soundFileFilter); ...
