Hi everybody,

Is RandomAccessFile class on scope regarding the exam topics for OCPJP 7?

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/ap ... File.html

I haven't found it in the exam topics list.. however Marco Farruggia here-> http://www.coderanch.com/t/593692/sr/ce ... grammer-II after passed the exam says:
Basically you have to go through all of K&B except chapter 10.

Then all the stuff that was added to the Java SE7 such as:
-multi-catch
-try-with-resources
-know that String types are now allowed in switch statements

java.io.RandomAccessFile with all the access modes such as "rws" (just know that they exist. there is no need to know the details of the "rws" and "rwd")
Serialization, you can leave out Externalizable interface

Yes, another person also reported getting a question on it. We are also working on adding a few questions on this topic.

HTH,
