public class InflaterInputStream
extends FilterInputStream
This class implements a stream filter for uncompressing data in the "deflate" compression format. It is also used as the basis for other decompression filters, such as GZIPInputStream.

See Also:
Inflater

Variable Index

o buf
Input buffer for decompression.
o inf
Decompressor for this stream.
o len
Length of input buffer.

Constructor Index

o InflaterInputStream(InputStream)
Creates a new input stream with a default decompressor and buffer size.
o InflaterInputStream(InputStream, Inflater)
Creates a new input stream with the specified decompressor and a default buffer size.
o InflaterInputStream(InputStream, Inflater, int)
Creates a new input stream with the specified decompressor and buffer size.

Method Index

o fill()
Fills input buffer with more data to decompress.
o read()
Reads a byte of uncompressed data.
o read(byte[], int, int)
Reads uncompressed data into an array of bytes.
o skip(long)
Skips specified number of bytes of uncompressed data.

Variables

o inf 
 protected Inflater inf
Decompressor for this stream.

o buf 
 protected byte buf[]
Input buffer for decompression.

o len 
 protected int len
Length of input buffer.

Constructors

o InflaterInputStream 
 public InflaterInputStream(InputStream in,
                            Inflater inf,
                            int size)
Creates a new input stream with the specified decompressor and buffer size.

Parameters:
in - the input stream
inf - the decompressor ("inflater")
len - the input buffer size
o InflaterInputStream 
 public InflaterInputStream(InputStream in,
                            Inflater inf)
Creates a new input stream with the specified decompressor and a default buffer size.

Parameters:
in - the input stream
inf - the decompressor ("inflater")
o InflaterInputStream 
 public InflaterInputStream(InputStream in)
Creates a new input stream with a default decompressor and buffer size.

Methods

o read 
 public int read() throws IOException
Reads a byte of uncompressed data. This method will block until enough input is available for decompression.

Returns:
the byte read, or -1 if end of compressed input is reached
Throws: IOException
if an I/O error has occurred
Overrides:
read in class FilterInputStream
o read 
 public int read(byte b[],
                 int off,
                 int len) throws IOException
Reads uncompressed data into an array of bytes. This method will block until some input can be decompressed.

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 actual number of bytes read, or -1 if the end of the compressed input is reached or a preset dictionary is needed
Throws: ZipException
if a ZIP format error has occurred
Throws: IOException
if an I/O error has occurred
Overrides:
read in class FilterInputStream
o skip 
 public long skip(long n) throws IOException
Skips specified number of bytes of uncompressed data.

Parameters:
n - the number of bytes to skip
Returns:
the actual number of bytes skipped.
Throws: IOException
if an I/O error has occurred
Overrides:
skip in class FilterInputStream
o fill 
 protected void fill() throws IOException
Fills input buffer with more data to decompress.

Throws: IOException
if an I/O error has occurred
