    @Deprecated
    public class ScanfReader
    extends java.io.Reader
    Deprecated.
    use Scanner
    A Reader which implements C scanf functionality. Once created, an application can read various primitive types from the underlying stream using various scan methods that implement scanf type input formatting.

    There are scan methods to read float, double, long, int, char, char[], and String. The methods take as an argument either a format string, a pre-allocated ScanfFormat object which is created from a format string, or no argument (implying a default format). The format string is modeled after that accepted by the C scanf() methodName, and is described in the documentation for the class ScanfFormat.

    Because Java does not permit variable-length argument lists, only one primitive type may be returned per method, and the format used may contain only one conversion specification (which must be appropriate to the type being scanned).

    Input errors in the underlying Reader result in a java.io.IOException being thrown, while a java.io.EOFException is thrown if the end of input is reached before the scan can complete successfully. If the input does not match the specified format, then a ScanfMatchException is thrown. In the event of a match error, scanning stops at the first character from which it can be determined that the match will fail. This character is remembered by the stream (see the discussion of the look-ahead character, below) and will be the first character seen by the next scan or read method which is called. Finally, an invalid format string (or ScanfFormat object) will trigger an InvalidArgumentException.

    The class keeps track of the current line number (accessible with the methods getLineNumber and setLineNumber), as well as the number of characters which have been consumed (accesible with the methods getCharNumber and setCharNumber).

    The class usually keeps one character of look-ahead which has been read from the underlying reader but not yet consumed by any scan method. If the underlying reader is used later in some other capacity, this look-ahead character may have to be taken into account. If a look-ahead character is actually being stored, the lookAheadCharValid method will return true, and the look-ahead character itself can then be obtained using the getLookAheadChar method. The look-ahead character can be cleared using the clearLookAheadChar method.

                           java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
        Deprecated.
        Scan and return a signed integer.

        The format string s must have the form described by the documentation for the class ScanfFormat , and must contain one of the conversion characters "doxi".

        Specifying the conversion characters 'd', 'o', or 'x' is equivalent to calling (int versions of) scanDec, scanOct, and scanHex, respectively.

        If the conversion character is 'i', then after an optional sign ('+' or '-'), if the number begins with an 0x, then it is scanned as a hex number; if it begins with an 0, then it is scanned as an octal number, and otherwise it is scanned as a decimal number. White space preceding the number is skipped.

        Parameters:
        s - Format string
        Returns:
        Scanned integer
        Throws:
        ScanfMatchException - Input did not match format
