public class LittleEndianDataInputStream
extends FilterInputStream
implements DataInput

A little endian input stream reads two's complement, little endian integers, floating point numbers, and characters and returns them as Java primitive types.

The standard java.io.DataInputStream class which this class imitates reads big endian quantities.

Warning: The DataInput and DataOutput interfaces specifies big endian byte order in their documentation. This means that this class is, strictly speaking, not a proper implementation. However, I don't see a reason for the these interfaces to specify the byte order of their underlying representations.

Constructor Detail

LittleEndianDataInputStream

public LittleEndianDataInputStream(InputStream pStream)

Creates a new little endian input stream and chains it to the input stream specified by the pStream argument.

Parameters:

pStream - the underlying input stream.

FilterInputStream.in

Method Detail

readBoolean

public boolean readBoolean()
                    throws IOException

Reads a boolean from the underlying input stream by reading a single byte. If the byte is zero, false is returned. If the byte is positive, true is returned.

Specified by:

readBoolean in interface DataInput

Returns:

the boolean value read.

Throws:

EOFException - if the end of the underlying input stream has been reached

IOException - if the underlying stream throws an IOException.

readByte

public byte readByte()
              throws IOException

Reads a signed byte from the underlying input stream with value between -128 and 127

Specified by:

readByte in interface DataInput

Returns:

the byte value read.

Throws:

EOFException - if the end of the underlying input stream has been reached

IOException - if the underlying stream throws an IOException.

readUnsignedByte

public int readUnsignedByte()
                     throws IOException

Reads an unsigned byte from the underlying input stream with value between 0 and 255

Specified by:

readUnsignedByte in interface DataInput

Returns:

the byte value read.

Throws:

EOFException - if the end of the underlying input stream has been reached

IOException - if the underlying stream throws an IOException.

readShort

public short readShort()
                throws IOException

Reads a two byte signed short from the underlying input stream in little endian order, low byte first.

Specified by:

readShort in interface DataInput

Returns:

the short read.

Throws:

EOFException - if the end of the underlying input stream has been reached

IOException - if the underlying stream throws an IOException.

readUnsignedShort

public int readUnsignedShort()
                      throws IOException

Reads a two byte unsigned short from the underlying input stream in little endian order, low byte first.

Specified by:

readUnsignedShort in interface DataInput

Returns:

the int value of the unsigned short read.

Throws:

EOFException - if the end of the underlying input stream has been reached

IOException - if the underlying stream throws an IOException.

readChar

public char readChar()
              throws IOException

Reads a two byte Unicode char from the underlying input stream in little endian order, low byte first.

Specified by:

readChar in interface DataInput

Returns:

the int value of the unsigned short read.

Throws:

EOFException - if the end of the underlying input stream has been reached

IOException - if the underlying stream throws an IOException.

readInt

public int readInt()
            throws IOException

Reads a four byte signed int from the underlying input stream in little endian order, low byte first.

Specified by:

readInt in interface DataInput

Returns:

the int read.

Throws:

EOFException - if the end of the underlying input stream has been reached

IOException - if the underlying stream throws an IOException.

readLong

public long readLong()
              throws IOException

Reads an eight byte signed int from the underlying input stream in little endian order, low byte first.

Specified by:

readLong in interface DataInput

Returns:

the int read.

Throws:

EOFException - if the end of the underlying input stream has been reached

IOException - if the underlying stream throws an IOException.

readUTF

public String readUTF()
               throws IOException

Reads a string of no more than 65,535 characters from the underlying input stream using UTF-8 encoding. This method first reads a two byte short in big endian order as required by the UTF-8 specification. This gives the number of bytes in the UTF-8 encoded version of the string. Next this many bytes are read and decoded as UTF-8 encoded characters.

Specified by:

readUTF in interface DataInput

Returns:

the next eight bytes of this input stream, interpreted as a little endian double.

Throws:

EOFException - if end of stream occurs before eight bytes have been read.

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

readFloat

public final float readFloat()
                      throws IOException

Specified by:

readFloat in interface DataInput

Returns:

the next four bytes of this input stream, interpreted as a little endian int.

Throws:

EOFException - if end of stream occurs before four bytes have been read.

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

skipBytes

public final int skipBytes(int pLength)
                    throws IOException

Bytes for this operation are read from the contained input stream.

Specified by:
