Field Detail

buf

protected byte[] buf

The pushback buffer.

Since:

JDK1.1

pos

protected int pos

The position within the pushback buffer from which the next byte will be read. When the buffer is empty, pos is equal to buf.length; when the buffer is full, pos is equal to zero.

Since:

JDK1.1

Constructor Detail

PushbackInputStream

public PushbackInputStream(InputStream in,
                           int size)

Enabled: Creates a PushbackInputStream with a pushback buffer of the specified size, and saves its argument, the input stream in, for later use. Initially, there is no pushed-back byte (the field pushBack is initialized to -1).

Parameters:

in - the input stream from which bytes will be read.

size - the size of the pushback buffer.

Since:

JDK1.1

PushbackInputStream

public PushbackInputStream(InputStream in)

Enabled: Creates a PushbackInputStream and saves its argument, the input stream in, for later use. Initially, there is no pushed-back byte (the field pushBack is initialized to -1).

Parameters:

in - the input stream from which bytes will be read.

Method Detail

ensureOpen

private void ensureOpen()
                 throws IOException

Check to make sure that this stream has not been closed

IOException

read

public int read()
         throws IOException

Enabled: Reads the next byte of data from this input stream. The value byte is returned as an int in the range 0 to 255. If no byte is available because the end of the stream has been reached, the value -1 is returned. This method blocks until input data is available, the end of the stream is detected, or an exception is thrown.

This method returns the most recently pushed-back byte, if there is one, and otherwise calls the read method of its underlying input stream and returns whatever value that method returns.

Overrides:

read in class FilterInputStream

Returns:

the next byte of data, or -1 if the end of the stream has been reached.

IOException

java.io.InputStream#read()

read

public int read(byte[] b,
                int off,
                int len)
         throws IOException

Enabled: Reads up to len bytes of data from this input stream into an array of bytes. This method first reads any pushed-back bytes; after that, if fewer than than len bytes have been read then it reads from the underlying input stream. This method blocks until at least 1 byte of input is available.

Overrides:

read in class FilterInputStream

Parameters:

b - the buffer into which the data is read.

off - the start offset of the data.

len - the maximum number of bytes read.

Returns:

the total number of bytes read into the buffer, or -1 if there is no more data because the end of the stream has been reached.

IOException

java.io.InputStream#read(byte[], int, int)

unread

public void unread(int b)
            throws IOException

Enabled: Pushes back a byte by copying it to the front of the pushback buffer. After this method returns, the next byte to be read will have the value (byte)b.

Parameters:

b - the int value whose low-order byte is to be pushed back.

IOException

unread

public void unread(byte[] b,
                   int off,
                   int len)
            throws IOException

Enabled: Pushes back a portion of an array of bytes by copying it to the front of the pushback buffer. After this method returns, the next byte to be read will have the value b[off], the byte after that will have the value b[off+1], and so forth.

Parameters:

b - the byte array to push back.

off - the start offset of the data.

len - the number of bytes to push back.

IOException

Since:

JDK1.1

unread

public void unread(byte[] b)
            throws IOException

Enabled: Pushes back an array of bytes by copying it to the front of the pushback buffer. After this method returns, the next byte to be read will have the value b[0], the byte after that will have the value b[1], and so forth.

Parameters:

b - the byte array to push back

IOException

Since:

JDK1.1

available

public int available()
              throws IOException

Enabled: Returns the number of bytes that can be read from this input stream without blocking. This method calls the available method of the underlying input stream; it returns that value plus the number of bytes that have been pushed back.

Overrides:

available in class FilterInputStream

Returns:

the number of bytes that can be read from the input stream without blocking.

IOException

java.io.FilterInputStream#in, java.io.InputStream#available()

skip

public long skip(long n)
          throws IOException

Enabled: Skips over and discards n bytes of data from this input stream. The skip method may, for a variety of reasons, end up skipping over some smaller number of bytes, possibly zero. If n is negative, no bytes are skipped.

The skip method of PushbackInputStream first skips over the bytes in the pushback buffer, if any. It then calls the skip method of the underlying input stream if more bytes need to be skipped. The actual number of bytes skipped is returned.

Overrides:

skip in class FilterInputStream

Parameters:

n - the number of bytes to be skipped.

Returns:

the actual number of bytes skipped.

IOException

Since:

1.2

See Also:

java.io.FilterInputStream#in, java.io.InputStream#skip(long n)

markSupported

public boolean markSupported()

Enabled: Tests if this input stream supports the mark and reset methods, which it does not.

Overrides:

markSupported in class FilterInputStream

Returns:

false, since this class does not support the mark and reset methods.

See Also:

java.io.InputStream#mark(int), java.io.InputStream#reset()

close

public void close()
           throws IOException

Enabled: Closes this input stream and releases any system resources associated with the stream.

Overrides:

close in class FilterInputStream

IOException
