Class ChunkedOutputStream

java.lang.Object

java.io.OutputStream

org.apache.http.impl.io.ChunkedOutputStream

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, Flushable, AutoCloseable

public class ChunkedOutputStream
extends OutputStream

Implements chunked transfer coding. The content is sent in small chunks. Entities transferred using this output stream can be of unlimited length. Writes are buffered to an internal buffer (2048 default size).

Note that this class NEVER closes the underlying stream, even when close gets called. Instead, the stream will be marked as closed and no further output will be permitted.

Since:

4.0

Constructor Summary

Constructors

Constructor	Description
ChunkedOutputStream(int bufferSize, SessionOutputBuffer out)	Wraps a session output buffer and chunk-encodes the output.
ChunkedOutputStream(SessionOutputBuffer out)	Deprecated. (4.3) use ChunkedOutputStream(int, SessionOutputBuffer)
ChunkedOutputStream(SessionOutputBuffer out, int bufferSize)	Deprecated. (4.3) use ChunkedOutputStream(int, SessionOutputBuffer)

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
void	close()	Finishes writing to the underlying stream, but does NOT close the underlying stream.
void	finish()	Must be called to ensure the internal cache is flushed and the closing chunk is written.
void	flush()	Flushes the content buffer and the underlying stream.
void	write(byte[] b)	Writes the array.
void	write(byte[] src, int off, int len)	Writes the array.
void	write(int b)

Constructor Detail

ChunkedOutputStream

@Deprecated
public ChunkedOutputStream(SessionOutputBuffer out,
                           int bufferSize)
                    throws IOException

Deprecated.

(4.3) use ChunkedOutputStream(int, SessionOutputBuffer)

Wraps a session output buffer and chunk-encodes the output.

Parameters:

out - The session output buffer

bufferSize - The minimum chunk size (excluding last chunk)

Throws:

IOException - not thrown

ChunkedOutputStream

@Deprecated
public ChunkedOutputStream(SessionOutputBuffer out)
                    throws IOException

Deprecated.

(4.3) use ChunkedOutputStream(int, SessionOutputBuffer)

Wraps a session output buffer and chunks the output. The default buffer size of 2048 was chosen because the chunk overhead is less than 0.5%

Parameters:

out - the output buffer to wrap

Throws:

IOException - not thrown

ChunkedOutputStream

public ChunkedOutputStream(int bufferSize,
                           SessionOutputBuffer out)

Wraps a session output buffer and chunk-encodes the output.

Parameters:

bufferSize - The minimum chunk size (excluding last chunk)

out - The session output buffer

Method Detail

finish

public void finish()
            throws IOException

Must be called to ensure the internal cache is flushed and the closing chunk is written.

Throws:

IOException - in case of an I/O error

write

public void write(int b)
           throws IOException

Specified by:

write in class OutputStream

Throws:

IOException

write

public void write(byte[] b)
           throws IOException

Writes the array. If the array does not fit within the buffer, it is not split, but rather written out as one large chunk.

Overrides:

write in class OutputStream

Throws:

IOException

write

public void write(byte[] src,
                  int off,
                  int len)
           throws IOException

Writes the array. If the array does not fit within the buffer, it is not split, but rather written out as one large chunk.

Overrides:

write in class OutputStream

Throws:

IOException

flush

public void flush()
           throws IOException

Flushes the content buffer and the underlying stream.

Specified by:

flush in interface Flushable

Overrides:

flush in class OutputStream

Throws:

IOException

close

public void close()
           throws IOException

Finishes writing to the underlying stream, but does NOT close the underlying stream.

Specified by:

close in interface AutoCloseable

Specified by:

close in interface Closeable

Overrides:

close in class OutputStream

Throws:

IOException
