package java.io;
A FilterInputStream contains
some other input stream, which it uses as
its basic source of data, possibly transforming
the data along the way or providing additional
functionality. The class FilterInputStream
itself simply overrides all methods of
InputStream with versions that
pass all requests to the contained input
stream. Subclasses of FilterInputStream
may further override some of these methods
and may also provide additional methods
and fields.

Reads the next byte of data from this input stream. The value
byte is returned as an int in the range
0 to 255. If no byte is available
because the end of the stream has been reached, the value
-1 is returned. This method blocks until input data
is available, the end of the stream is detected, or an exception
is thrown.
This method
simply performs in.read() and returns the result.
Throws: - IOException – if an I/O error occurs.
See Also: Returns: the next byte of data, or -1 if the end of the
stream is reached.

Reads up to byte.length bytes of data from this
input stream into an array of bytes. This method blocks until some
input is available.
This method simply performs the call
read(b, 0, b.length) and returns
the result. It is important that it does
not do in.read(b) instead;
certain subclasses of FilterInputStream
depend on the implementation strategy actually
used.
Params: - b – the buffer into which the data is read.
Throws: - IOException – if an I/O error occurs.
See Also: 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.

Reads up to len bytes of data from this input stream
into an array of bytes. If len is not zero, the method
blocks until some input is available; otherwise, no
bytes are read and 0 is returned.
This method simply performs in.read(b, off, len)
and returns the result.
Params: - 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.
Throws: - NullPointerException – If
b is null. - IndexOutOfBoundsException – If
off is negative,
len is negative, or len is greater than
b.length - off - IOException – if an I/O error occurs.
See Also: Returns: the total number of bytes read into the buffer, or

Skips over and discards n bytes of data from the
input stream. The skip method may, for a variety of
reasons, end up skipping over some smaller number of bytes,
possibly 0. The actual number of bytes skipped is
returned.
This method simply performs in.skip(n).
Params: - n – the number of bytes to be skipped.
Throws: - IOException – if the stream does not support seek,
or if some other I/O error occurs.
Returns: the actual number of bytes skipped.

Returns an estimate of the number of bytes that can be read (or
skipped over) from this input stream without blocking by the next
caller of a method for this input stream. The next caller 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.
This method returns the result of in.available().

Closes this input stream and releases any system resources
associated with the stream.

method simply performs in.close().

Marks the current position in this input stream. A subsequent
call to the reset method repositions this stream at
the last marked position so that subsequent reads re-read the same bytes.
The readlimit argument tells this input stream to
allow that many bytes to be read before the mark position gets
invalidated.
This method simply performs in.mark(readlimit).
Params: - readlimit – the maximum limit of bytes that can be read before
the mark position becomes invalid.

public synchronized void mark(int readlimit) {

Repositions this stream to the position at the time the
mark method was last called on this input stream.
This method
simply performs in.reset().
Stream marks are intended to be used in
situations where you need to read ahead a little to see what's in
the stream. Often this is most easily done by invoking some
general parser. If the stream is of the type handled by the
parse, it just chugs along happily. If the stream is not of
that type, the parser should toss an exception when it fails.
If this happens within readlimit bytes, it allows the outer
code to reset the stream and try another parser.
Throws: - IOException – if the stream has not been marked or if the
mark has been invalidated.
