Class ProxyReader

java.lang.Object
java.io.Reader
java.io.FilterReader
org.apache.commons.io.input.ProxyReader
All Implemented Interfaces:
Closeable, AutoCloseable, Readable
Direct Known Subclasses:
BoundedReader, CloseShieldReader, TaggedReader, TeeReader

public abstract class ProxyReader extends FilterReader
A reader proxy which delegates to the wrapped reader.

It is an alternative base class to FilterReader to increase reusability, because FilterReader changes the methods being called, such as read(char[]) to read(char[], int, int).

      public ProxyReader(Reader delegate)
      Constructs a new ProxyReader.
      Parameters:
      delegate - the Reader to delegate to.
  • Method Details

    • afterRead

      protected void afterRead(int n) throws IOException
      Invoked by the read methods after the proxied call has returned successfully. The number of chars returned to the caller (or -1 if the end of stream was reached) is given as an argument.

      Subclasses can override this method to add common post-processing functionality without having to override all the read methods. The default implementation does nothing.

      Note this method is not called from skip(long) or reset(). You need to explicitly override those methods if you want to add post-processing steps also to them.

      Parameters:
      n - number of chars read, or -1 if the end of stream was reached.
      Throws:
      IOException - if the post-processing fails.
      Since:
      2.0
    • beforeRead

      protected void beforeRead(int n) throws IOException
      Invoked by the read methods before the call is proxied. The number of chars that the caller wanted to read (1 for the read() method, buffer length for read(char[]), etc.) is given as an argument.

      Subclasses can override this method to add common pre-processing functionality without having to override all the read methods. The default implementation does nothing.

      Note this method is not called from skip(long) or reset(). You need to explicitly override those methods if you want to add pre-processing steps also to them.

      Parameters:
      n - number of chars that the caller asked to be read.
      Throws:
      IOException - if the pre-processing fails.
      Since:
      2.0
    • close

      public void close() throws IOException
      Invokes the delegate's close() method.
      Specified by:
      close in interface AutoCloseable
      Specified by:
      close in interface Closeable
      Overrides:
      close in class FilterReader
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
    • handleIOException

      protected void handleIOException(IOException e) throws IOException
      Handle any IOExceptions thrown.

      This method provides a point to implement custom exception handling. The default behavior is to re-throw the exception.

      Parameters:
      e - The IOException thrown.
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
      Since:
      2.0
    • mark

      public void mark(int readAheadLimit) throws IOException
      Invokes the delegate's mark(int) method.
      Overrides:
      mark in class FilterReader
      Parameters:
      readAheadLimit - read ahead limit.
      Throws:

    • markSupported

      public boolean markSupported()
      Invokes the delegate's markSupported() method.
      Overrides:
      markSupported in class FilterReader
