Class NonBlockingStringReader

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Closeable, AutoCloseable, Readable

    @NotThreadSafe
    public class NonBlockingStringReader
    extends Reader
    A non-synchronized copy of the class StringReader.
    Note: super class Reader uses the lock object internally only for long skip(long n) and as this method is overwritten in here, the lock is never used.

    • Method Detail

      • read

        @CheckForSigned
        public int read()
                 throws IOException
        Reads a single character.
        Overrides:
        read in class Reader
        Returns:
        The character read, or -1 if the end of the stream has been reached
        Throws:
        IOException - If an I/O error occurs
      • read

        @CheckForSigned
        public int read​(@Nonnull
                        char[] aBuf,
                        @Nonnegative
                        int nOfs,
                        @Nonnegative
                        int nLen)
                 throws IOException
        Reads characters into a portion of an array.
        Specified by:
        read in class Reader
        Parameters:
        aBuf - Destination buffer
        nOfs - Offset at which to start writing characters
        nLen - 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
      • skip

        public long skip​(long nCharsToSkip)
                  throws IOException
        Skips the specified number of characters in the stream. Returns the number of characters that were skipped.

        Overrides:
        skip in class Reader
        Parameters:
        nCharsToSkip - The parameter may be negative, even though the skip method of the Reader superclass throws an exception in this case. Negative values of the parameter cause the stream to skip backwards. Negative return values indicate a skip backwards. It is not possible to skip backwards past the beginning of the string.
        Returns:
        If the entire string has been read or skipped, then this method has no effect and always returns 0.
        Throws:
        IOException - If an I/O error occurs
      • ready

        public boolean ready()
                      throws IOException
        Tells whether this stream is ready to be read.
        Overrides:
        ready in class Reader
        Returns:
        true if the next read() is guaranteed not to block for input
        Throws:
        IOException - If the stream is closed
      • markSupported

        public boolean markSupported()
        Tells whether this stream supports the mark() operation, which it does.
        Overrides:
        markSupported in class Reader
        Returns:
        always true
      • mark

        public void mark​(int nReadAheadLimit)
                  throws IOException
        Marks the present position in the stream. Subsequent calls to reset() will reposition the stream to this point.
        Overrides:
        mark in class Reader
        Parameters:
        nReadAheadLimit - Limit on the number of characters that may be read while still preserving the mark. Because the stream's input comes from a string, there is no actual limit, so this argument must not be negative, but is otherwise ignored.
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - If readAheadLimit is < 0
        IOException - If an I/O error occurs
      • reset

        public void reset()
                   throws IOException
        Resets the stream to the most recent mark, or to the beginning of the string if it has never been marked.
        Overrides:
        reset in class Reader
        Throws:
        IOException - If an I/O error occurs
      • close

        public void close()
        Closes the stream and releases any system resources associated with it. Once the stream has been closed, further read(), ready(), mark(), or reset() invocations will throw an IOException. Closing a previously closed stream has no effect.
