Class Overview

An implementation of ImageInputStream that gets its input from a regular InputStream. A file is used to cache previously read data.

Summary

Inherited Fields
From class javax.imageio.stream.ImageInputStreamImpl
Public Constructors
FileCacheImageInputStream(InputStream stream, File cacheDir)
Constructs a FileCacheImageInputStream that will read from a given InputStream.
Public Methods
void close()
Closes this FileCacheImageInputStream, closing and removing the cache file.
boolean isCached()
Returns true since this ImageInputStream caches data in order to allow seeking backwards.
boolean isCachedFile()
Returns true since this ImageInputStream maintains a file cache.
boolean isCachedMemory()
Returns false since this ImageInputStream does not maintain a main memory cache.
int read()
Reads a single byte from the stream and returns it as an int between 0 and 255.
int read(byte[] b, int off, int len)
Reads up to len bytes from the stream, and stores them into b starting at index off.
Protected Methods
void finalize()
Finalizes this object prior to garbage collection.

Public Constructors

public FileCacheImageInputStream (InputStream stream, File cacheDir)

Constructs a FileCacheImageInputStream that will read from a given InputStream.

A temporary file is used as a cache. If cacheDiris non-null and is a directory, the file will be created there. If it is null, the system-dependent default temporary-file directory will be used (see the documentation for File.createTempFile for details).

Parameters
stream an InputStream to read from.
cacheDir a File indicating where the cache file should be created, or null to use the system directory.
Throws
IllegalArgumentException if stream is null.
IllegalArgumentException if cacheDir is non-null but is not a directory.
IOException if a cache file cannot be created.

Public Methods

public void close ()

Closes this FileCacheImageInputStream, closing and removing the cache file. The source InputStream is not closed.

Throws
IOException if an error occurs.

public boolean isCached ()

Returns true since this ImageInputStream caches data in order to allow seeking backwards.

Returns
  • true.

public boolean isCachedFile ()

Returns true since this ImageInputStream maintains a file cache.

Returns
  • true.

public boolean isCachedMemory ()

Returns false since this ImageInputStream does not maintain a main memory cache.

Returns
  • false.

public int read ()

Reads a single byte from the stream and returns it as an int between 0 and 255. If EOF is reached, -1 is returned.

Subclasses must provide an implementation for this method. The subclass implementation should update the stream position before exiting.

The bit offset within the stream must be reset to zero before the read occurs.

Returns
  • the value of the next byte in the stream, or -1 if EOF is reached.
Throws
IOException

public int read (byte[] b, int off, int len)

Reads up to len bytes from the stream, and stores them into b starting at index off. If no bytes can be read because the end of the stream has been reached, -1 is returned.

The bit offset within the stream must be reset to zero before the read occurs.

Subclasses must provide an implementation for this method. The subclass implementation should update the stream position before exiting.

Parameters
b an array of bytes to be written to.
off the starting position within b to write to.
len the maximum number of bytes to read.
Returns
  • the number of bytes actually read, or -1 to indicate EOF.
Throws
IOException

Protected Methods

protected void finalize ()

Finalizes this object prior to garbage collection. The close method is called to close any open input source. This method should not be called from application code.

Throws
Throwable
