class sys::InStream

sys::Obj
  sys::InStream

Source

InStream is used to read binary and text stream based input.

avail

virtual Int avail()

Source

Return the number of bytes available on input stream without blocking. Return zero if no bytes available or it is unknown. Throw IOErr on error.

charset

Charset charset

Source

The current charset used to decode bytes into Unicode characters. The default charset should always be UTF-8.

close

virtual Bool close()

Source

Close the input stream. This method is guaranteed to never throw an IOErr. Return true if the stream was closed successfully or false if the stream was closed abnormally. Default implementation does nothing and returns true.

eachLine

Void eachLine(|Str| f)

Source

Read the entire stream into Str lines based on the current encoding. Call the specified function for each line read. Each line is terminated by \n, \r\n, \r, or EOF using the same semantics as readLine with the null default max line length. The Str lines themselves do not contain a trailing newline. Empty lines are returned as the empty Str "". This InStream is guaranteed to be closed upon return.

endian

Endian endian

Source

Byte order mode for binary reads. Default is Endian.big (network byte order).

make

new make(InStream? in)

Source

Constructor for an InStream which wraps another stream. All reads from this stream will be routed to the specified inner stream.

If in is null, then it is the subclass responsibility to handle reads by overriding the following methods: read, readBuf, and unread.

If in is not null, then this stream will automatically set its own charset to in.charset.

peek

Int? peek()

Source

Peek at the next byte to be read without actually consuming it. Peek has the same semantics as a read/unread. Return null if at end of stream.

peekChar

Int? peekChar()

Source

Peek at the next char to be read without actually consuming it. Peek has the same semantics as a readChar/unreadChar. Return null if at end of stream.

pipe

Int pipe(OutStream out, Int? n := null, Bool close := true)

Source

Pipe bytes from this input stream to the specified output stream. If n is specified, then block until exactly n bytes have been read or throw IOErr if end of stream is reached first. If n is null then the entire contents of this input stream are piped. If close is true, then this input stream is guaranteed to be closed upon return (the OutStream is never closed). Return the number of bytes piped to the output stream.

read

virtual Int? read()

Source

Read the next unsigned byte from the input stream. Return null if at end of stream. Throw IOErr on error.

readAllBuf

Buf readAllBuf()

Source

Read the entire contents of the stream into a memory Buf. The resulting buffer is automatically positioned at the beginning. This InStream is guaranteed to be closed.

readAllLines

Str[] readAllLines()

Source

Read the entire stream into a list of Str lines based on the configured charset encoding. Each Str in the list maps to a line terminated by \n, \r\n, \r, or EOF using the same semantics as readLine with default max line length of null. The Str lines themselves do not contain a trailing newline. Empty lines are returned as the empty Str "". Return an empty list if currently at end of stream (not null). Throw IOErr if there is a problem reading the stream or an invalid character encoding is encountered. This InStream is guaranteed to be closed upon return.

readAllStr

Str readAllStr(Bool normalizeNewlines := true)

Source

Read the entire stream into a Str based on the configured charset encoding. If the normalizeNewlines flag is true, then all occurances of \r\n or \r newlines are normalized into \n. Return "" if the stream is empty. Throw IOErr if there is a problem reading the stream or an invalid character encoding is encountered. This InStream is guaranteed to be closed.

readBits

Int readBits(Int num)

Source

Read between 0 and 64 bits from the input stream. Bits which are partial bytes are consumed from the input stream one byte at a time. Throw IOErr on error or if end of stream is reached before given number of bits can be read.

readBool

Bool readBool()

Source

Read the next byte and return true if nonzero. This method may be paired with OutStream.writeBool. Throw IOErr on error or if the end of stream is reached before one byte can be read.

readBuf

virtual Int? readBuf(Buf buf, Int n)

Source

Attempt to read the next n bytes into the Buf at its current position. The buffer will be grown as needed. Return the number of bytes read and increment buf's size and position accordingly. Return null and leave buf's state untouched if end of stream. Note this method may not read the full number of n bytes, use readBufFully if you must block until all n bytes read. Throw IOErr on error.

readBufFully

Buf readBufFully(Buf? buf, Int n)

Source

Read the next n bytes from the stream into the Buf at its current position. The buffer will be grown as needed. If the buf parameter is null, then a memory buffer is automatically created with a capacity of n. Block until exactly n bytes have been read or throw IOErr if end of stream is reached first. Return the Buf passed in or the one created automatically if buf is null. The buffer is automatically positioned at zero.

readChar

Int? readChar()

Source

Read a single Unicode character from the stream using the current charset encoding. Return null if at end of stream. Throw IOErr if there is a problem reading the stream, or an invalid character encoding is encountered.

readChars

Str readChars(Int n)

Source

Read the next n chars from the stream as a Str using the current charset. Block until exactly n chars have been read or throw IOErr if end of stream is reached first.

readDecimal

Decimal readDecimal()

Source

Read a decimal string according to readUtf.

readF4

Float readF4()

Source

Read the next four bytes as a 32-bit floating point number using configured endian according to Float.bits32. This method may be paired with OutStream.writeF4. Throw IOErr on error or if the end of stream is reached before four bytes can be read.

readF8

Float readF8()

Source

Read the next eight bytes as a 64-bit floating point number using configured endian according to Float.bits. This method may be paired with OutStream.writeF8. Throw IOErr on error or if the end of stream is reached before four bytes can be read.

readLine

Str? readLine(Int? max := null)

Source

Read the next line from the input stream as a Str based on the configured charset. A line is terminated by \n, \r\n, \r, or EOF. The Str returned never contains the trailing newline.

The max parameter specifies the maximum number of Unicode characters (not bytes) to read before truncating the line and returning. If max is null, then no boundary is enforced except of course the end of the stream.

Return null if the end of stream has been reached. Throw IOErr if there is a problem reading the stream or an invalid character encoding is encountered.

readNullTerminatedStr

Str readNullTerminatedStr(Int? max := null)

Source

Read a string terminated by the "\0" character. The "\0" character is read from the stream, but not included in the string result.

The max parameter specifies the maximum number of Unicode characters (not bytes) to read before truncating the string and returning. If max is null, then no boundary is enforced except of course the end of the stream.

readObj

Obj? readObj([Str:Obj]? options := null)

Source

Read a serialized object from the stream according to the Fantom serialization format. Throw IOErr or ParseErr on error. This method may consume bytes/chars past the end of the serialized object (we may want to add a "full stop" token at some point to support compound object streams).

The options may be used to specify additional decoding logic:

  • "makeArgs": Obj[] arguments to pass to the root object's make constructor via Type.make
readProps

Str:Str readProps()

Source

Read the entire stream into a Str:Str of name/value pairs using the Fantom props file format. This format is similar to but different than the Java properties file format:

  • Input must be UTF-8 encoded (current charset is ignored)
  • Name/value pairs formatted as logical line: <name>=<value>
  • Any Unicode character allowed in name or value
  • Leading and trailing whitespace trimmed from both name and value
  • Duplicate name keys within one file is an error condition
  • Lines starting with # are comments
  • Comment to end of line is // if start of line or preceeded by whitespace
  • Block comment is /* */ (may be nested)
  • Use trailing \ to continue logical line to another actual line, any leading whitespace (space or tab char) is trimmed from beginning of continued line
  • Fantom Str literal escape sequences supported: \n \r \t or \uxxxx
  • The $ character is treated as a normal character and should not be escaped, but convention is to indicate a variable in a format string
  • Convention is that name is lower camel case with dot separators

Throw IOErr if there is a problem reading the stream or an invalid props format is encountered. This InStream is guaranteed to be closed.

Also see Env.props.

readS1

Int readS1()

Source

Read the next byte as a signed 8-bit number. This method may be paired with OutStream.write. Throw IOErr on error or if the end of stream is reached before one byte can be read.

readS2

Int readS2()

Source

Read the next two bytes as a signed 16-bit number using configured endian. This method may be paired with OutStream.writeI2. Throw IOErr on error or if the end of stream is reached before two bytes can be read.

readS4

Int readS4()

Source

Read the next four bytes as a signed 32-bit number using configured endian. This method may be paired with OutStream.writeI4. Throw IOErr on error or if the end of stream is reached before four bytes can be read.

readS8

Int readS8()

Source

Read the next eight bytes as a signed 64-bit number using configured endian. This method may be paired with OutStream.writeI8. Throw IOErr on error or if the end of stream is reached before eight bytes can be read. Note there is no readU8 (because Java doesn't support unsigned longs).

readStrToken

Str? readStrToken(Int? max := null, |Int->Bool|? c := null)

Source

Read a Str token from the input stream which is terminated when the specified function c returns true. The terminating char is unread and will be the next char read once this method returns. Characters are read based on the currently configured charset.

If c is null then the default implementation tokenizes up until the next character which returns true for Int.isSpace.

The max parameter specifies the maximum number of Unicode characters (not bytes) to read before truncating the line and returning. If max is null, then no boundary is enforced except of course the end of the stream.

Return null if the end of stream has been reached. Throw IOErr if there is a problem reading the stream or an invalid character encoding is encountered.

readU1

Int readU1()

Source

Read the next byte as an unsigned 8-bit number. This method may be paired with OutStream.write. Throw IOErr on error or if the end of stream is reached before one byte can be read. This method differs from read in that it will throw IOErr on end of stream rather than return null.

readU2

Int readU2()

Source

Read the next two bytes as an unsigned 16-bit number using configured endian. This method may be paired with OutStream.writeI2. Throw IOErr on error or if the end of stream is reached before two bytes can be read.

readU4

Int readU4()

Source

Read the next four bytes as an unsigned 32-bit number using configured endian. This method may be paired with OutStream.writeI4. Throw IOErr on error or if the end of stream is reached before four bytes can be read.

readUtf

Str readUtf()

Source

Read a Str in modified UTF-8 format according to the java.io.DataInput specification. This method may be paired with OutStream.writeUtf. Throw IOErr on error, invalid UTF encoding, or if the end of stream is reached before the string is fully read.

skip

virtual Int skip(Int n)

Source

Attempt to skip n number of bytes. Return the number of bytes actually skipped which may be equal to or less than n.

unread

virtual This unread(Int b)

Source

Pushback a byte so that it is the next byte to be read. There is a finite limit to the number of bytes which may be pushed back. Return this.

unreadChar

This unreadChar(Int b)

Source

Pushback a char so that it is the next char to be read. This method pushes back one or more bytes depending on the current character encoding. Return this.
