    bufferedIO - a BufferedIOBase to wrap
- Method Detail
  - read
```
public String read(int size)
```
    Read and return up to size bytes, contained in a String. Returns an empty String on EOF
    
    Parameters:
    size - the number of bytes to read
    
    Returns:
    a String containing the bytes read
  - readall
```
public String readall()
```
    Read until EOF.
    
    Returns:
    a String containing the bytes read
  - readline
```
public String readline(int size)
```
    Read until size, newline or EOF. Returns an empty string if EOF is hit immediately.
    
    Parameters:
    size - the number of bytes to read
    
    Returns:
    a String containing the bytes read
  - readinto
```
public int readinto(PyObject buf)
```
    Read into the given PyObject that implements the Jython buffer API (with write access) or is a PyArray.
    
    Parameters:
    buf - a PyObject compatible with the buffer API
    
    Returns:
    the amount of data read as an int
  - write
```
public int write(String buf)
```
    Write the given String to the IO stream. Returns the number of characters written.
    
    Parameters:
    buf - a String value
    
    Returns:
    the number of characters written as an int
  - truncate
```
public long truncate(long pos)
```
    Description copied from class: IOBase
    
    Truncate file to size in bytes. Returns the new size.
    
    Overrides:
    
    truncate in class IOBase
    
    Parameters:
    pos - a long size to truncate to
    
    Returns:
    a long size value the file was truncated to
  - flush
```
public void flush()
```
    Description copied from class: IOBase
    
    Flushes write buffers, if applicable. This is a no-op for read-only and non-blocking streams.
    
    Overrides:
    
    flush in class IOBase
  - close
```
public void close()
```
    Description copied from class: IOBase
    
    Flushes and closes the IO object. This must be idempotent. It should also set a flag for the 'closed' property (see below) to test.
    
    Overrides:
    
    close in class IOBase
  - seek
```
public long seek(long pos,
        int whence)
```
    Description copied from class: IOBase
    
    Seek to byte offset pos relative to position indicated by whence: 0 Start of stream (the default). pos should be >= 0; 1 Current position - whence may be negative; 2 End of stream - whence usually negative. Returns the new absolute position.
    
    Overrides:
    
    seek in class IOBase
    
    Parameters:
    pos - a long position value
    whence - an int whence value

    Overrides:
    
    fileno in class IOBase
    
    Returns:
    a file descriptor
  - isatty
```
public boolean isatty()
```
    Description copied from class: IOBase

    Overrides:
    
    isatty in class IOBase
    
    Returns:
    a boolean, true if an 'interactive' stream
  - readable
```
public boolean readable()
```
    Description copied from class: IOBase
    
    Return whether this file was opened for reading.
    
    Overrides:
    
    readable in class IOBase
    
    Returns:
    true if the file was opened for reading
  - writable
```
public boolean writable()
```
    Description copied from class: IOBase
    
    Return whether this file was opened for writing.
    
    Overrides:
    
    writable in class IOBase
    
    Returns:
    true if the file was opened for writing
  - closed
```
public boolean closed()
```
    Description copied from class: IOBase
    
    Return whether this file has been closed.
    
    Overrides:
    
    closed in class IOBase
    
    Returns:
    true if the file has been closed
  - asInputStream
```
public InputStream asInputStream()
```
    Description copied from class: IOBase
    
    Coerce this into an InputStream if possible, or return null.
    
    Overrides:
    
    asInputStream in class IOBase
  - asOutputStream
```
public OutputStream asOutputStream()
```
    Description copied from class: IOBase
    
    Coerce this into an OutputStream if possible, or return null.
    
    Overrides:
    
    asOutputStream in class IOBase
  - getNewlines
```
public PyObject getNewlines()
