Package org.apache.commons.httpclient

Class ContentLengthInputStream

java.lang.Object

java.io.InputStream

org.apache.commons.httpclient.ContentLengthInputStream

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, AutoCloseable

@Deprecated
public class ContentLengthInputStream
extends InputStream

Deprecated.

Jakarta Commons HttpClient 3.x is deprecated in the Jenkins project. It is not recommended to use it in any new code. Instead, use HTTP client API plugins as a dependency in your code. E.g. Apache HttpComponents Client API 4.x Plugin or Async HTTP Client Plugin.

Cuts the wrapped InputStream off after a specified number of bytes.

Implementation note: Choices abound. One approach would pass through the InputStream.mark(int) and InputStream.reset() calls to the underlying stream. That's tricky, though, because you then have to start duplicating the work of keeping track of how much a reset rewinds. Further, you have to watch out for the "readLimit", and since the semantics for the readLimit leave room for differing implementations, you might get into a lot of trouble.

Alternatively, you could make this class extend BufferedInputStream and then use the protected members of that class to avoid duplicated effort. That solution has the side effect of adding yet another possible layer of buffering.

Then, there is the simple choice, which this takes - simply don't support InputStream.mark(int) and InputStream.reset(). That choice has the added benefit of keeping this class very simple.

Since:

2.0

Method Details

close

public void close()
           throws IOException

Deprecated.

Reads until the end of the known length of content.

Does not close the underlying socket input, but instead leaves it primed to parse the next response.

Specified by:

close in interface AutoCloseable

Specified by:

close in interface Closeable

Overrides:

close in class InputStream

Throws:

IOException - If an IO problem occurs.

read

public int read()
         throws IOException

Deprecated.

Read the next byte from the stream

Specified by:

read in class InputStream

Returns:

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

Throws:

IOException - If an IO problem occurs

See Also:

• InputStream.read()

read

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

Deprecated.

Does standard InputStream.read(byte[], int, int) behavior, but also notifies the watcher when the contents have been consumed.

Overrides:

read in class InputStream

Parameters:

b - The byte array to fill.

off - Start filling at this position.

len - The number of bytes to attempt to read.

Returns:

The number of bytes read, or -1 if the end of content has been reached.

Throws:

IOException - Should an error occur on the wrapped stream.

read

public int read(byte[] b)
         throws IOException

Deprecated.

Read more bytes from the stream.

Overrides:

read in class InputStream

Parameters:

b - The byte array to put the new data in.

Returns:

The number of bytes read into the buffer.

Throws:

IOException - If an IO problem occurs

See Also:

• InputStream.read(byte[])

skip

public long skip(long n)
          throws IOException

Deprecated.

Skips and discards a number of bytes from the input stream.

Overrides:

skip in class InputStream

Parameters:

n - The number of bytes to skip.

Returns:

The actual number of bytes skipped. invalid input: '<'= 0 if no bytes are skipped.

Throws:

IOException - If an error occurs while skipping bytes.

See Also:

• InputStream.skip(long)

available

public int available()
              throws IOException

Deprecated.

Overrides:

available in class InputStream

Throws:

IOException
