- Closeable,- AutoCloseable
A 
PushbackInputStream adds
 functionality to another input stream, namely
 the  ability to "push back" or "unread" bytes,
 by storing pushed-back bytes in an internal buffer.
 This is useful in situations where
 it is convenient for a fragment of code
 to read an indefinite number of data bytes
 that  are delimited by a particular byte
 value; after reading the terminating byte,
 the  code fragment can "unread" it, so that
 the next read operation on the input stream
 will reread the byte that was pushed back.
 For example, bytes representing the  characters
 constituting an identifier might be terminated
 by a byte representing an  operator character;
 a method whose job is to read just an identifier
 can read until it  sees the operator and
 then push the operator back to be re-read.- Since:

PushbackInputStreamCreates aPushbackInputStreamwith a pushback buffer of the specifiedsize, and saves its argument, the input streamin, for later use. Initially, the pushback buffer is empty.- Parameters:
- in- the input stream from which bytes will be read.
- size- the size of the pushback buffer.
- Throws:
- IllegalArgumentException- if- size <= 0

Method Details- 
readReads the next byte of data from this input stream. The value byte is returned as anintin the range0to255. If no byte is available because the end of the stream has been reached, the value-1is returned. This method blocks until input data is available, the end of the stream is detected, or an exception is thrown.This method returns the most recently pushed-back byte, if there is one, and otherwise calls the readmethod of its underlying input stream and returns whatever value that method returns.- Overrides:
- readin class- FilterInputStream
- Returns:
- the next byte of data, or -1if the end of the stream has been reached.
- Throws:
- IOException- if this input stream has been closed by invoking its- close()method, or an I/O error occurs.
- See Also:
 
- 
readReads up tolenbytes of data from this input stream into an array of bytes. This method first reads any pushed-back bytes; after that, if fewer thanlenbytes have been read then it reads from the underlying input stream. Iflenis not zero, the method blocks until at least 1 byte of input is available; otherwise, no bytes are read and0is returned.- Overrides:
- readin class- FilterInputStream
- Parameters:
- b- the buffer into which the data is read.
- off- the start offset in the destination array- b
- len- the maximum number of bytes read.
- Returns:
- the total number of bytes read into the buffer, or
             -1if there is no more data because the end of the stream has been reached.
- Throws:
- NullPointerException- If- bis- null.
- IndexOutOfBoundsException- If- offis negative,- lenis negative, or- lenis greater than- b.length - off
- IOException- if this input stream has been closed by invoking its- close()method, or an I/O error occurs.
- See Also:
 
- 
unreadPushes back a byte by copying it to the front of the pushback buffer. After this method returns, the next byte to be read will have the value(byte)b.- Parameters:
- b- the- intvalue whose low-order byte is to be pushed back.
- Throws:
- IOException- If there is not enough room in the pushback buffer for the byte, or this input stream has been closed by invoking its- close()method.
 
- 
unreadPushes back a portion of an array of bytes by copying it to the front of the pushback buffer. After this method returns, the next byte to be read will have the valueb[off], the byte after that will have the valueb[off+1], and so forth.- Parameters:
- b- the byte array to push back.
- off- the start offset of the data.
- len- the number of bytes to push back.
- Throws:
- NullPointerException- If- bis- null.
- IOException- If there is not enough room in the pushback buffer for the specified number of bytes, or this input stream has been closed by invoking its- close()method.
- Since:
- 1.1
 
- 
unreadPushes back an array of bytes by copying it to the front of the pushback buffer. After this method returns, the next byte to be read will have the valueb[0], the byte after that will have the valueb[1], and so forth.- Parameters:
- b- the byte array to push back
- Throws:
- NullPointerException- If- bis- null.
- IOException- If there is not enough room in the pushback buffer for the specified number of bytes, or this input stream has been closed by invoking its- close()method.
- Since:
- 1.1
 
- 
availableReturns an estimate of the number of bytes that can be read (or skipped over) from this input stream without blocking by the next invocation of a method for this input stream. The next invocation might be the same thread or another thread. A single read or skip of this many bytes will not block, but may read or skip fewer bytes.The method returns the sum of the number of bytes that have been pushed back and the value returned by available.- Overrides:
- availablein class- FilterInputStream
- Returns:
- the number of bytes that can be read (or skipped over) from the input stream without blocking.
- Throws:
- IOException- if this input stream has been closed by invoking its- close()method, or an I/O error occurs.
- See Also:
 
- 
skipSkips over and discardsnbytes of data from this input stream. Theskipmethod may, for a variety of reasons, end up skipping over some smaller number of bytes, possibly zero. Ifnis negative, no bytes are skipped.The skipmethod ofPushbackInputStreamfirst skips over the bytes in the pushback buffer, if any. It then calls theskipmethod of the underlying input stream if more bytes need to be skipped. The actual number of bytes skipped is returned.- Overrides:
- skipin class- FilterInputStream
- Parameters:
- n- the number of bytes to be skipped.
- Returns:
- the actual number of bytes skipped.
- Throws:
- IOException- if the stream has been closed by invoking its- close()method,- in.skip(n)throws an IOException, or an I/O error occurs.
- Since:
- 1.2

markSupportedpublic boolean markSupported()Tests if this input stream supports themarkandresetmethods, which it does not.- Overrides:
- markSupportedin class- FilterInputStream
- Returns:
- false, since this class does not support the- markand- resetmethods.
- See Also:
 
- 
markpublic void mark(int readlimit) Marks the current position in this input stream.The markmethod ofPushbackInputStreamdoes nothing.- Overrides:
- markin class- FilterInputStream
- Parameters:
- readlimit- the maximum limit of bytes that can be read before the mark position becomes invalid.
- See Also:
 
- 
resetRepositions this stream to the position at the time themarkmethod was last called on this input stream.The method resetfor classPushbackInputStreamdoes nothing except throw anIOException.- Overrides:
- resetin class- FilterInputStream
- Throws:
- IOException- if this method is invoked.
- See Also:
 
- 
closeCloses this input stream and releases any system resources associated with the stream. Once the stream has been closed, further read(), unread(), available(), reset(), or skip() invocations will throw an IOException. Closing a previously closed stream has no effect.- Specified by:
- closein interface- AutoCloseable
- Specified by:
- closein interface- Closeable
- Overrides:
- closein class- FilterInputStream
- Throws:
- IOException- if an I/O error occurs.
