Class AutoCloseInputStream

java.lang.Object

java.io.InputStream

org.apache.commons.io.input.AutoCloseInputStream

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, AutoCloseable

public class AutoCloseInputStream
extends ProxyInputStream

Proxy stream that closes and discards the underlying stream as soon as the end of input has been reached or when the stream is explicitly closed. Not even a reference to the underlying stream is kept after it has been closed, so any allocated in-memory buffers can be freed even if the client application still keeps a reference to the proxy stream.

This class is typically used to release any resources related to an open stream as soon as possible even if the client application (by not explicitly closing the stream when no longer needed) or the underlying stream (by not releasing resources once the last byte has been read) do not do that.

To build an instance, use AutoCloseInputStream.Builder.

Method Detail

afterRead

protected void afterRead(int n)
                  throws IOException

Automatically closes the stream if the end of stream was reached.

Overrides:

afterRead in class ProxyInputStream

Parameters:

n - number of bytes read, or -1 if no more bytes are available

Throws:

IOException - if the stream could not be closed

builder

public static AutoCloseInputStream.Builder builder()

Constructs a new AutoCloseInputStream.Builder.

Returns:

a new AutoCloseInputStream.Builder.

close

public void close()
           throws IOException

Closes the underlying input stream and replaces the reference to it with a ClosedInputStream instance.

This method is automatically called by the read methods when the end of input has been reached.

Note that it is safe to call this method any number of times. The original underlying input stream is closed and discarded only once when this method is first called.

Specified by:

close in interface Closeable

Specified by:

close in interface AutoCloseable

Overrides:

close in class ProxyInputStream

Throws:

IOException - if the underlying input stream cannot be closed

finalize

protected void finalize()
                 throws Throwable

Ensures that the stream is closed before it gets garbage-collected. As mentioned in close(), this is a no-op if the stream has already been closed.

Overrides:

finalize in class Object

Throws:

Throwable - if an error occurs
