Package org.apache.commons.io.input

Class QueueInputStream

java.lang.Object

java.io.InputStream

org.apache.commons.io.input.QueueInputStream

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, AutoCloseable

public class QueueInputStream
extends InputStream

Simple alternative to JDK PipedInputStream; queue input stream provides what's written in queue output stream.

To build an instance, use QueueInputStream.Builder.

Example usage:

 QueueInputStream inputStream = new QueueInputStream();
 QueueOutputStream outputStream = inputStream.newQueueOutputStream();

 outputStream.write("hello world".getBytes(UTF_8));
 inputStream.read();
 

Unlike JDK PipedInputStream and PipedOutputStream, queue input/output streams may be used safely in a single thread or multiple threads. Also, unlike JDK classes, no special meaning is attached to initial or current thread. Instances can be used longer after initial threads exited.

Closing a QueueInputStream has no effect. The methods in this class can be called after the stream has been closed without generating an IOException.

2.9.0

Constructor Details

QueueInputStream

public QueueInputStream()

Constructs a new instance with no limit to its internal queue size and zero timeout.

QueueInputStream

@Deprecated
public QueueInputStream(BlockingQueue<Integer> blockingQueue)

Deprecated.

Use builder(), QueueInputStream.Builder, and QueueInputStream.Builder.get().

Constructs a new instance with given queue and zero timeout.

Parameters:

blockingQueue - backing queue for the stream, null maps to a new blocking queue instance.

Method Details

builder

public static QueueInputStream.Builder builder()

Constructs a new QueueInputStream.Builder.

Returns:

a new QueueInputStream.Builder.

Since:

2.12.0

newQueueOutputStream

public QueueOutputStream newQueueOutputStream()

Constructs a new QueueOutputStream instance connected to this. Writes to the output stream will be visible to this input stream.

Returns:

QueueOutputStream connected to this stream.

read

public int read()

Reads and returns a single byte.

Specified by:

read in class InputStream

Returns:

the byte read, or -1 if a timeout occurs before a queue element is available.

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if thread is interrupted while waiting.

read

public int read(byte[] b,
 int offset,
 int length)

Reads up to length bytes of data from the input stream into an array of bytes. The first byte is read while honoring the timeout; the rest are read while not honoring the timeout. The number of bytes actually read is returned as an integer.

Overrides:

read in class InputStream

Parameters:

b - the buffer into which the data is read.

offset - the start offset in array b at which the data is written.

length - the maximum number of bytes to read.

Returns:

the total number of bytes read into the buffer, or -1 if there is no more data because the end of the stream has been reached.

Throws:

NullPointerException - If b is null.

IllegalStateException - if thread is interrupted while waiting for the first byte.

IndexOutOfBoundsException - if offset is negative, length is negative, or length is greater than b.length - offset.

Since:

2.20.0
