Class ChunkedInputStream

java.lang.Object
java.io.InputStream
org.apache.hc.core5.http.impl.io.ChunkedInputStream
All Implemented Interfaces:
Closeable, AutoCloseable
public class ChunkedInputStream extends InputStream
Implements chunked transfer coding. The content is received in small chunks. Entities transferred using this input stream can be of unlimited length. After the stream is read to the end, it provides access to the trailers, if any.

Note that this class NEVER closes the underlying stream, even when close() gets called. Instead, it will read until the "end" of its chunking on close, which allows for the seamless execution of subsequent HTTP 1.1 requests, while not requiring the client to remember to read the entire contents of the response.

Since:
4.0

    • ChunkedInputStream

      public ChunkedInputStream(SessionInputBuffer buffer, InputStream inputStream)
      Wraps session input stream and reads chunk coded input.
      Parameters:
      buffer - Session input buffer
      inputStream - Input stream

  • Method Details

    • available

      public int available() throws IOException
      Overrides:
      available in class InputStream
      Throws:
      IOException

    • read

      public int read() throws IOException

      Returns all the data in a chunked stream in coalesced form. A chunk is followed by a CRLF. The method returns -1 as soon as a chunksize of 0 is detected.

      Trailer headers are read automatically at the end of the stream and can be obtained with the getResponseFooters() method.

      Specified by:
      read in class InputStream
      Returns:
      -1 of the end of the stream has been reached or the next data byte
      Throws:
      IOException - in case of an I/O error

    • read

      public int read(byte[] b, int off, int len) throws IOException
      Read some bytes from the stream.
      Overrides:
      read in class InputStream
      Parameters:
      b - The byte array that will hold the contents from the stream.
      off - The offset into the byte array at which bytes will start to be placed.
      len - the maximum number of bytes that can be returned.
      Returns:
      The number of bytes returned or -1 if the end of stream has been reached.
      Throws:
      IOException - in case of an I/O error

    • read

      public int read(byte[] b) throws IOException
      Read some bytes from the stream.
      Overrides:
      read in class InputStream
      Parameters:
      b - The byte array that will hold the contents from the stream.
      Returns:
      The number of bytes returned or -1 if the end of stream has been reached.
      Throws:
      IOException - in case of an I/O error

    • close

      public void close() throws IOException
      Reads the remainder of the chunked message, leaving the underlying stream at a position to start reading the next response without scanning. But does NOT close the underlying stream.
      Specified by:
      close in interface AutoCloseable
      Specified by:
      close in interface Closeable
      Overrides:
      close in class InputStream
      Throws:
      IOException - in case of an I/O error

    • getFooters

      public Header[] getFooters()
