Class CharArrayReader

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Closeable, AutoCloseable, Readable

    public class CharArrayReader
    extends Reader
    This class implements a character buffer that can be used as a character-input stream. Modified from the JDK source in that it gets rid of the ensureOpen() method, so we get unexpected behaviour if the reader is closed.

    The second modification is that since this class is used internally by FastPageParser in a single thread, we don't need any locking or synchronization. Using this class instead of the standard CharArrayReader improves FastPageParser performance by 15-20%.

    • Method Detail

      • read

        public int read​(char[] b,
                        int off,
                        int len)
                 throws IOException
        Read characters into a portion of an array.
        Specified by:
        read in class Reader
        Parameters:
        b - Destination buffer
        off - Offset at which to start storing characters
        len - Maximum number of characters to read
        Returns:
        The actual number of characters read, or -1 if the end of the stream has been reached
        Throws:
        IOException - If an I/O error occurs
      • skip

        public long skip​(long n)
                  throws IOException
        Skip characters.
        Overrides:
        skip in class Reader
        Parameters:
        n - The number of characters to skip
        Returns:
        The number of characters actually skipped
        Throws:
        IOException - If an I/O error occurs
      • ready

        public boolean ready()
                      throws IOException
        Tell whether this stream is ready to be read. Character-array readers are always ready to be read.
        Overrides:
        ready in class Reader
        Throws:
        IOException - If an I/O error occurs
      • markSupported

        public boolean markSupported()
        Tell whether this stream supports the mark() operation, which it does.
        Overrides:
        markSupported in class Reader
      • mark

        public void mark​(int readAheadLimit)
                  throws IOException
        Mark the present position in the stream. Subsequent calls to reset() will reposition the stream to this point.
        Overrides:
        mark in class Reader
        Parameters:
        readAheadLimit - Limit on the number of characters that may be read while still preserving the mark. Because the stream's input comes from a character array, there is no actual limit; hence this argument is ignored.
        Throws:
        IOException - If an I/O error occurs
      • reset

        public void reset()
                   throws IOException
        Reset the stream to the most recent mark, or to the beginning if it has never been marked.
        Overrides:
        reset in class Reader
        Throws:
        IOException - If an I/O error occurs
