    public class ConvTableReader
    extends java.io.InputStreamReader
    Represents a Toolbox converter that uses stateful character conversion. That is, it wraps an underlying InputStream and reads/caches the appropriate number of bytes to return the requested number of Unicode characters. This is especially useful for mixed-byte tables where the number of converted Unicode characters is almost never the same as the number of underlying EBCDIC bytes. This class exists primarily for use with the IFSTextFile... classes, but other components are free to use it as well.

        public void close()
                   throws java.io.IOException
        Closes this ConvTableReader and its underlying input stream. Calling close() multiple times will not throw an exception.
        Specified by:
        close in interface java.io.Closeable
        Overrides:
        close in class java.io.InputStreamReader

      • getByteCacheSize

        public int getByteCacheSize()
        Returns the maximum number of bytes that may be stored in the internal buffer. This number represents the number of bytes that may be read from the underlying InputStream any time a read() method is called on this ConvTableReader.

This number represents the number of characters that may be converted from the underlying InputStream any time a read() method is called on this ConvTableReader. Note that this is not the number of bytes actually read from the InputStream. The maximum number of bytes that can be read is determined by getByteCacheSize().

        Parameters:
        buffer - The destination buffer.
        offset - The offset into the buffer at which to begin storing data.
        length - The maximum number of characters to store. If a zero length is specified, this method does nothing and returns 0.
        Returns:
        The number of characters read, or -1 if the end of the stream has been reached.
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException - If an I/O exception occurs.
      • read

        public java.lang.String read(int length)
                              throws java.io.IOException

        Parameters:
        length - The maximum number of Unicode characters to return as a String. Note that the number of bytes read from the underlying InputStream could be greater than length. If a zero length is specified, this method does nothing and returns "".
        Returns:
        A String of up to length Unicode characters, or null if the end of the stream has been reached. The actual number of characters returned may be less than the specified length if the end of the underlying InputStream is reached while reading.
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException - If an I/O exception occurs.

        public boolean ready()
                      throws java.io.IOException
        Tells whether this ConvTableReader is ready to be read. A ConvTableReader is ready if its input buffer is not empty or if bytes are available to be read from the underlying input stream. If close() is called, a call to ready() will always return false.
