findString(String...)

findString

String findString(String... terminators)
                  throws IOException

Reads a string ending with one of the given terminating substrings.

Parameters:

terminators - The strings for which to search.

Returns:

The string from the initial position through the end of the terminating sequence, or through the end of the stream if no terminating sequence is found.

Throws:

IOException

findString

String findString(boolean saveString,
                String... terminators)
                  throws IOException

Reads or skips a string ending with one of the given terminating substrings.

Parameters:

saveString - Whether to collect the string from the current file pointer to the terminating bytes, and return it. If false, returns null.

terminators - The strings for which to search.

Returns:

The string from the initial position through the end of the terminating sequence, or through the end of the stream if no terminating sequence is found, or null if saveString flag is unset.

Throws:

IOException - If saveString flag is set and the maximum search length (512 MB) is exceeded.

findString

String findString(int blockSize,
                String... terminators)
                  throws IOException

Reads a string ending with one of the given terminating substrings, using the specified block size for buffering.

Parameters:

blockSize - The block size to use when reading bytes in chunks.

terminators - The strings for which to search.

Returns:

The string from the initial position through the end of the terminating sequence, or through the end of the stream if no terminating sequence is found.

Throws:

IOException

findString

String findString(boolean saveString,
                int blockSize,
                String... terminators)
                  throws IOException

Reads or skips a string ending with one of the given terminating substrings, using the specified block size for buffering.

Parameters:

saveString - Whether to collect the string from the current file pointer to the terminating bytes, and return it. If false, returns null.

blockSize - The block size to use when reading bytes in chunks.

terminators - The strings for which to search.

Returns:

The string from the initial position through the end of the terminating sequence, or through the end of the stream if no terminating sequence is found, or null if saveString flag is unset.

Throws:

IOException - If saveString flag is set and the maximum search length (512 MB) is exceeded.

read

int read()
         throws IOException

Reads the next byte of data from the stream.

Returns:

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

Throws:

IOException - - if an I/O error occurs.

read

int read(byte[] b)
         throws IOException

Reads up to b.length bytes of data from the stream into an array of bytes.

Returns:

the total number of bytes read into the buffer.

Throws:

IOException

read

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

Reads up to len bytes of data from the stream into an array of bytes.

Returns:

the total number of bytes read into the buffer.

Throws:

IOException

skip

long skip(long n)
          throws IOException

Skips over and discards n bytes of data from the stream. The skip method may, for a variety of reasons, end up skipping over some smaller number of bytes, possibly 0. This may result from any of a number of conditions; reaching end of file before n bytes have been skipped is only one possibility. The actual number of bytes skipped is returned. If n is negative, no bytes are skipped.

Parameters:

n - - the number of bytes to be skipped.

Returns:

the actual number of bytes skipped.

Throws:

IOException - - if an I/O error occurs.
