@Deprecatedpublic classLineNumberInputStreamextendsFilterInputStream
Deprecated.
This class incorrectly assumes that bytes adequately represent characters. As of JDK 1.1, the preferred way to operate on character streams is via the new character-stream classes, which include a class for counting line numbers.
This class is an input stream filter that provides the added functionality of keeping track of the current line number.

A line is a sequence of bytes ending with a carriage return character ('\r'), a newline character ('\n'), or a carriage return character followed immediately by a linefeed character. In all three cases, the line terminating character(s) are returned as a single newline character.

The line number begins at0, and is incremented by1 when aread returns a newline character.

Since:
1.0

  • Constructor Details

    • LineNumberInputStream

      public LineNumberInputStream(InputStream in)
      Deprecated.
      Constructs a newline number input stream that reads its input from the specified input stream.
      Parameters:
      in - the underlying input stream.
  • Method Details

    • read

      public int read() throwsIOException
      Deprecated.
      Reads the next byte of data from this input stream. The value byte is returned as anint in the range0 to255. If no byte is available because the end of the stream has been reached, the value-1 is returned. This method blocks until input data is available, the end of the stream is detected, or an exception is thrown.

      Theread method ofLineNumberInputStream calls theread method of the underlying input stream. It checks for carriage returns and newline characters in the input, and modifies the current line number as appropriate. A carriage-return character or a carriage return followed by a newline character are both converted into a single newline character.

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

      public int read(byte[] b, int off, int len) throwsIOException
      Deprecated.
      Reads up tolen bytes of data from this input stream into an array of bytes. This method blocks until some input is available.

      Theread method ofLineNumberInputStream repeatedly calls theread method of zero arguments to fill in the byte array.

      Overrides:
      read in class FilterInputStream
      Parameters:
      b - the buffer into which the data is read.
      off - the start offset of the data.
      len - the maximum number of bytes read.
      Returns:
      the total number of bytes read into the buffer, or-1 if there is no more data because the end of this stream has been reached.
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
      See Also:
    • skip

      public long skip(long n) throwsIOException
      Deprecated.
      Skips over and discardsn bytes of data from this input stream. Theskip method may, for a variety of reasons, end up skipping over some smaller number of bytes, possibly0. The actual number of bytes skipped is returned. Ifn is negative, no bytes are skipped.

      Theskip method ofLineNumberInputStream creates a byte array and then repeatedly reads into it untiln bytes have been read or the end of the stream has been reached.

      Overrides:
      skip in class FilterInputStream
      Parameters:
      n - the number of bytes to be skipped.
      Returns:
      the actual number of bytes skipped.
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
      See Also:
    • setLineNumber

      public void setLineNumber(int lineNumber)
      Deprecated.
      Sets the line number to the specified argument.
      Parameters:
      lineNumber - the new line number.
      See Also:
    • getLineNumber

      public int getLineNumber()
      Deprecated.
      Returns the current line number.
      Returns:
      the current line number.
      See Also:
    • available

      public int available() throwsIOException
      Deprecated.
      Returns the number of bytes that can be read from this input stream without blocking.

      Note that if the underlying input stream is able to supplyk input characters without blocking, theLineNumberInputStream can guarantee only to providek/2 characters without blocking, because thek characters from the underlying input stream might consist ofk/2 pairs of'\r' and'\n', which are converted to justk/2'\n' characters.

      Overrides:
      available in class FilterInputStream
      Returns:
      the number of bytes that can be read from this input stream without blocking.
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
      See Also:
    • mark

      public void mark(int readlimit)
      Deprecated.
      Marks the current position in this input stream. A subsequent call to thereset method repositions this stream at the last marked position so that subsequent reads re-read the same bytes.

      Themark method ofLineNumberInputStream remembers the current line number in a private variable, and then calls themark method of the underlying input stream.

      Overrides:
      mark in class FilterInputStream
      Parameters:
      readlimit - the maximum limit of bytes that can be read before the mark position becomes invalid.
      See Also:
    • reset

      public void reset() throwsIOException
      Deprecated.
      Repositions this stream to the position at the time themark method was last called on this input stream.

      Thereset method ofLineNumberInputStream resets the line number to be the line number at the time themark method was called, and then calls thereset method of the underlying input stream.

      Stream marks are intended to be used in situations where you need to read ahead a little to see what's in the stream. Often this is most easily done by invoking some general parser. If the stream is of the type handled by the parser, it just chugs along happily. If the stream is not of that type, the parser should toss an exception when it fails, which, if it happens within readlimit bytes, allows the outer code to reset the stream and try another parser.

      Overrides:
      reset in class FilterInputStream
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
