package org.apache.commons.io.filefilter;

import java.io.File;
import java.io.Serializable;

This filter accepts Files that can be read.

Example, showing how to print out a list of the
current directory's readable files:
File dir = new File(".");
String[] files = dir.list( CanReadFileFilter.CAN_READ );
for ( int i = 0; i < files.length; i++ ) {
    System.out.println(files[i]);
}


Example, showing how to print out a list of the
current directory's un-readable files:
File dir = new File(".");
String[] files = dir.list( CanReadFileFilter.CANNOT_READ );
for ( int i = 0; i < files.length; i++ ) {
    System.out.println(files[i]);
}


Example, showing how to print out a list of the
current directory's read-only files:
File dir = new File(".");
String[] files = dir.list( CanReadFileFilter.READ_ONLY );
for ( int i = 0; i < files.length; i++ ) {
    System.out.println(files[i]);
}
