Hi, my problem is the following:
I have an application reading a file byte by byte via an FileInputStream.
The bytes read are immediately written to another via a FileOutputStream.
This works fine so far, NOW:
I want the user to be able to follow the progress of the read-write action,
so I am planning to use a JProgressBar. And here is my problem, HOW can I
detect the length of the input file in order to set the maximum value in the
JProgressBar?
Could anyone help??

Regards
Marcel Hell
