Class QueueOutputStream

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Closeable, java.io.Flushable, java.lang.AutoCloseable

    public class QueueOutputStream
    extends java.io.OutputStream
    Simple alternative to JDK PipedOutputStream; queue input stream provides what's written in queue output stream.

    Example usage:

     QueueOutputStream outputStream = new QueueOutputStream();
     QueueInputStream inputStream = outputStream.newPipeInputStream();
    
     outputStream.write("hello world".getBytes(UTF_8));
     inputStream.read();
     
    Unlike JDK PipedInputStream and PipedOutputStream, queue input/output streams may be used safely in a single thread or multiple threads. Also, unlike JDK classes, no special meaning is attached to initial or current thread. Instances can be used longer after initial threads exited.

    Closing a QueueOutputStream has no effect. The methods in this class can be called after the stream has been closed without generating an IOException.
