Class DbInputStream

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Closeable, AutoCloseable

    public class DbInputStream
    extends AutoCloseInputStream
    This class represents an input stream backed by a database. The database objects are only acquired when reading from the stream, and stay open until the stream is closed, fully read, or garbage collected.

    This class does not support mark/reset. It is always to be wrapped using a BufferedInputStream.

    • Method Detail

      • read

        public int read()
                 throws IOException
        Invokes the delegate's read() method. When the stream is consumed, the database objects held by the instance are closed.
        Overrides:
        read in class ProxyInputStream
        Returns:
        the byte read or -1 if the end of stream
        Throws:
        IOException - if an I/O error occurs
      • read

        public int read​(byte[] b)
                 throws IOException
        Invokes the delegate's read(byte[]) method. When the stream is consumed, the database objects held by the instance are closed.
        Overrides:
        read in class ProxyInputStream
        Parameters:
        b - the buffer to read the bytes into
        Returns:
        the number of bytes read or EOF if the end of stream
        Throws:
        IOException - if an I/O error occurs
      • read

        public int read​(byte[] b,
                        int off,
                        int len)
                 throws IOException
        Invokes the delegate's read(byte[], int, int) method. When the stream is consumed, the database objects held by the instance are closed.
        Overrides:
        read in class ProxyInputStream
        Parameters:
        b - the buffer to read the bytes into
        off - The start offset
        len - The number of bytes to read
        Returns:
        the number of bytes read or -1 if the end of stream
        Throws:
        IOException - if an I/O error occurs
      • close

        public void close()
                   throws IOException
        Closes the underlying input stream and replaces the reference to it with a ClosedInputStream instance.

        This method is automatically called by the read methods when the end of input has been reached.

        Note that it is safe to call this method any number of times. The original underlying input stream is closed and discarded only once when this method is first called. When the stream is consumed, the database objects held by the instance are closed.

        Specified by:
        close in interface AutoCloseable
        Specified by:
        close in interface Closeable
        Overrides:
        close in class AutoCloseInputStream
        Throws:
        IOException - if the underlying input stream can not be closed
      • skip

        public long skip​(long n)
                  throws IOException
        Invokes the delegate's skip(long) method.
        Overrides:
        skip in class ProxyInputStream
        Parameters:
        n - the number of bytes to skip
        Returns:
        the actual number of bytes skipped
        Throws:
        IOException - if an I/O error occurs
      • mark

        public void mark​(int readlimit)
        This method does nothing.
        Overrides:
        mark in class ProxyInputStream
        Parameters:
        readlimit - read ahead limit
      • markSupported

        public boolean markSupported()
        Check whether mark and reset are supported.
        Overrides:
        markSupported in class ProxyInputStream
        Returns:
        false
