close()

Close the stream.

mark(int)

Mark the present position in the stream.

markSupported()

Tell whether this stream supports the mark() operation, which it does.

read()

Read a single character.

read(char[], int, int)

    method CharArrayReader(buf=char[]) public 

Create an CharArrayReader from the specified array of chars.

Parameters:

buf - Input buffer (not copied)

    method CharArrayReader(buf=char[], -
                           offset=int, -
                           length=int) public 

Create an CharArrayReader from the specified array of chars.

Parameters:

buf - Input buffer (not copied)

offset - Offset of the first char to read

length - Number of chars to read

    method read() returns int public     Signals IOException

Read a single character.

Throws: IOException

If an I/O error occurs

Overrides:

read in class Reader

    method read(b=char[], -
                off=int, -
                len=int) returns int public     Signals IOException

Read characters into a portion of an array.

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

Overrides:

read in class Reader

    method skip(n=long) returns long public     Signals IOException

Skip characters.

Parameters:

n - The number of characters to skip

Returns:

The number of characters actually skipped

Throws: IOException

If an I/O error occurs

Overrides:

skip in class Reader

    method ready() returns boolean public     Signals IOException

Tell whether this stream is ready to be read. Character-array readers are always ready to be read.

Throws: IOException

If an I/O error occurs

Overrides:

ready in class Reader

    method markSupported() returns boolean public     

Tell whether this stream supports the mark() operation, which it does.

Overrides:

markSupported in class Reader

    method mark(readAheadLimit=int)  public     Signals IOException

Mark the present position in the stream. Subsequent calls to reset() will reposition the stream to this point.

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

Overrides:

mark in class Reader

    method reset()  public     Signals IOException

Reset the stream to the most recent mark, or to the beginning if it has never been marked.

Throws: IOException

If an I/O error occurs

Overrides:

reset in class Reader

    method close()  public     

Close the stream.

Overrides:

close in class Reader
