ZipInputStream

Class Overview

This class provides an implementation of FilterInputStream that uncompresses data from a ZIP-archive input stream.

A ZIP-archive is a collection of compressed (or uncompressed) files - the so called ZIP entries. Therefore when reading from a ZipInputStream first the entry's attributes will be retrieved with getNextEntry before its data is read.

While InflaterInputStream can read a compressed ZIP-archive entry, this extension can read uncompressed entries as well.

Use ZipFile if you can access the archive as a file directly.

Summary

[Expand] Inherited Fields
From class java.util.zip.InflaterInputStream protected byte[] buf The input buffer used for decompression. protected Inflater inf The inflater used for this stream. protected int len The length of the buffer.
From class java.io.FilterInputStream protected InputStream in The source input stream that is filtered.

[Expand] Inherited Methods
From class java.util.zip.InflaterInputStream int available() Returns whether data can be read from this stream. void close() Closes the input stream. void fill() Fills the input buffer with data to be decompressed. void mark(int readlimit) This implementation overrides the super type implementation to do nothing at all. boolean markSupported() Returns whether the receiver implements mark semantics. int read(byte[] buffer, int off, int nbytes) Reads up to nbytes of decompressed data and stores it in buffer starting at off. int read() Reads a single byte of decompressed data. void reset() Reset the position of the stream to the last marked position. long skip(long nbytes) Skips up to n bytes of uncompressed data.
From class java.io.FilterInputStream int available() Returns the number of bytes that are available before this stream will block. void close() Closes this stream. synchronized void mark(int readlimit) Sets a mark position in this stream. boolean markSupported() Indicates whether this stream supports mark() and reset(). int read(byte[] buffer, int offset, int count) Reads at most count bytes from this stream and stores them in the byte array buffer starting at offset. int read(byte[] buffer) Reads bytes from this stream and stores them in the byte array buffer. int read() Reads a single byte from the filtered stream and returns it as an integer in the range from 0 to 255. synchronized void reset() Resets this stream to the last marked location. long skip(long count) Skips count number of bytes in this stream.
From class java.io.InputStream int available() Returns the number of bytes that are available before this stream will block. void close() Closes this stream. void mark(int readlimit) Sets a mark position in this InputStream. boolean markSupported() Indicates whether this stream supports the mark() and reset() methods. int read(byte[] b, int offset, int length) Reads at most length bytes from this stream and stores them in the byte array b starting at offset. int read(byte[] b) Reads bytes from this stream and stores them in the byte array b. abstract int read() Reads a single byte from this stream and returns it as an integer in the range from 0 to 255. synchronized void reset() Resets this stream to the last marked location. long skip(long n) Skips at most n bytes in this stream.
From class java.lang.Object Object clone() Creates and returns a copy of this Object. boolean equals(Object o) Compares this instance with the specified object and indicates if they are equal. void finalize() Is called before the object's memory is being reclaimed by the VM. final Class<? extends Object> getClass() Returns the unique instance of Class which represents this object's class. int hashCode() Returns an integer hash code for this object. final void notify() Causes a thread which is waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the wait() methods) to be woken up. final void notifyAll() Causes all threads which are waiting on this object's monitor (by means of calling one of the wait() methods) to be woken up. String toString() Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this object. final void wait(long millis, int nanos) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the notify() or notifyAll() method of this object or until the specified timeout expires. final void wait(long millis) Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the notify() or notifyAll() method of this object or until the specified timeout expires. final void wait() Causes the calling thread to wait until another thread calls the notify() or notifyAll() method of this object.
From interface java.io.Closeable abstract void close() Closes the object and release any system resources it holds.
