Constructor Detail

CheckedInputStream

public CheckedInputStream(InputStream in,
                          Checksum cksum)
Creates an input stream using the specified Checksum.

Parameters:
in - the input stream
cksum - the Checksum
Method Detail

read

public int read()
         throws IOException
Reads a byte. Will block if no input is available.

Overrides:
read in class FilterInputStream
Returns:
the byte read, or -1 if the end of the stream is reached.
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred
See Also:
FilterInputStream.in

read

public int read(byte[] buf,
                int off,
                int len)
         throws IOException
Reads into an array of bytes. If len is not zero, the method blocks until some input is available; otherwise, no bytes are read and 0 is returned.

Overrides:
read in class FilterInputStream
Parameters:
buf - the buffer into which the data is read
off - the start offset in the destination array b
len - the maximum number of bytes read
Returns:
the actual number of bytes read, or -1 if the end of the stream is reached.
Throws:
NullPointerException - If buf is null.
IndexOutOfBoundsException - If off is negative, len is negative, or len is greater than buf.length - off
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred
See Also:
FilterInputStream.in

skip

public long skip(long n)
          throws IOException
Skips specified number of bytes of input.

Overrides:
skip in class FilterInputStream
Parameters:
n - the number of bytes to skip
Returns:
the actual number of bytes skipped
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred

getChecksum

public Checksum getChecksum()
Returns the Checksum for this input stream.

Returns:
the Checksum value
