Constructor Detail

GZIPInputStream

public GZIPInputStream(InputStream in,
                       int size)
                throws IOException
Creates a new input stream with the specified buffer size.

Parameters:
in - the input stream
size - the input buffer size
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred
IllegalArgumentException - if size is <= 0

GZIPInputStream

public GZIPInputStream(InputStream in)
                throws IOException
Creates a new input stream with a default buffer size.

Parameters:
in - the input stream
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred
Method Detail

read

public int read(byte[] buf,
                int off,
                int len)
         throws IOException
Reads uncompressed data into an array of bytes. Blocks until enough input is available for decompression.

Overrides:
read in class InflaterInputStream
Parameters:
buf - 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 stream is reached
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred or the compressed input data is corrupt

close

public void close()
           throws IOException
Closes the input stream.

Overrides:
close in class InflaterInputStream
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred
