  • Method Details

    • read

      int read() throws IOException
      Reads a single character.

      Subclasses that intend to support efficient single-character input should override this method.

      Returns:
      The character read, as an integer in the range 0 to 65535 (0x00-0xffff), or -1 if the end of the stream has been reached
      Throws:
      IOException - If an I/O error occurs

    • read

      int read(char[] cbuf, int off, int len) throws IOException
      Reads characters into a portion of an array.
      Parameters:
      cbuf - Destination buffer
      off - Offset at which to start storing characters
      len - Maximum number of characters to read
      Returns:
      The number of characters read, or -1 if the end of the stream has been reached
      Throws:
      IOException - If an I/O error occurs

    • close

      void close() throws IOException
      Closes the stream and releases any system resources associated with it. Once the stream has been closed, further read(), ready(), mark(), reset(), or skip() invocations will throw an IOException. Closing a previously closed stream has no effect.
      Throws:
      IOException - If an I/O error occurs
