Decorator pattern

[jyohere]

can anyone explain how Decorator pattern is implemented in java's IO package and why do we have such a big package for the sake of I/O in java

Not sure if this is what you need, but here's a Tip of the Week written my one of our moderators that discussed the Decorator pattern. Hope it helps!
