Concept Explanation: Input Stream Classes

 java.io.InputStream is an abstract class that contains the basic methods for reading raw bytes of data
from a stream.
 The InputStream class defines methods for performing the input functions like:
 reading bytes

 closing streams

 marking positions in streams


 skipping ahead in a stream
 finding the number of bytes in a stream

Concept Explanation: InputStream Class Methods

 int read ()
Returns an integer representation of next available byte of input.
-1 is returned at the stream end.

 int read (byte buffer[ ])


Read up to buffer.length bytes into buffer & returns actual number of bytes that are read.
At the end returns –1.

 int read (byte buffer[ ], int offset, int numbytes)


Attempts to read up to numbytes bytes into buffer starting at buffer[offset].
Returns actual number of bytes that are read.
At the end returns –1.

 void close ()
to close the input stream.

Concept Explanation: InputStream Class Methods (contd.)

 void mark (int numbytes)


places a mark at current point in input stream and remain valid till number of bytes are read.

 void reset ()
Resets pointer to previously set mark/ goes back to stream beginning.

 long skip (long numbytes)


skips number of bytes.

 int available ()
Returns number of bytes currently available for reading.
