      com.infoengine.au.DirectoryPropertyInputStream

public class DirectoryPropertyInputStream

extends InputStream

This class implements an input stream class that uses the JNDI adapter to read attributes from directory entries. It filters attributes whose values have Java property file syntax, i.e. name=value.

Field Summary

private byte[]	directoryBytes
private int	directoryCursor
private int	directoryMark
private String	url

Fields inherited from class java.io.InputStream

Constructor Summary

DirectoryPropertyInputStream()
Constructs an instance that is not initially associated with a directory entry.

DirectoryPropertyInputStream(String url)
Constructs an instance that is associated with a specific directory entry.

Method Summary

int	available() Returns the number of bytes that can be read without blocking.
void	close() Closes the input stream and releases all resources allocated to it.
String	getUrl() Returns the URL of the directory entry currently associated with the input stream.
static void	main(String[] args)
void	mark(int readLimit) Marks the current position in the input stream.
boolean	markSupported() Returns an indication of support for input stream marking.
int	read() Returns a byte from the input stream.
int	read(byte[] b) Reads bytes from the input stream into an array.
int	read(byte[] b, int off, int len) Read bytes from the input stream into an array or subarray.
String	readLine() Reads a line of text from the input stream using the default character encoding for the platform.
String	readLine(String encoding) Read a line of text from the input stream using a specified character encoding.
void	reset() Resets the input stream to the position of the last mark set.
void	setUrl(String url) Sets the URL of the directory entry associated with the input stream.
long	skip(long n) Reads and discards bytes from the input stream.

Constructor Detail

DirectoryPropertyInputStream

public DirectoryPropertyInputStream()
                             throws IEException

Constructs an instance that is not initially associated with a directory entry. Use setUrl to associate the instance with a directory entry.

Throws:

IEException - if the JNDI adapter can not be loaded or initialized successfully

DirectoryPropertyInputStream

public DirectoryPropertyInputStream(String url)
                             throws IEException

Constructs an instance that is associated with a specific directory entry.

Parameters:

url - The LDAP URL of a directory entry. The URL must specify the attribute(s) to be read from the entry.

Throws:

IEException - if the URL can not be used to read the specified directory entry successfully, or the JNDI adapter can not be loaded or initialized successfully

Method Detail

setUrl

public void setUrl(String url)
            throws IEException

Sets the URL of the directory entry associated with the input stream.

Parameters:

url - The LDAP URL of a directory entry. The URL must specify the attribute(s) to be read from the entry.

Throws:

IEException - if the URL can not be used to read the specified directory entry successfully

getUrl

public String getUrl()

Returns the URL of the directory entry currently associated with the input stream.

Returns:

The LDAP URL of the directory entry currently associated with the stream.

available

public int available()
              throws IOException

Returns the number of bytes that can be read without blocking.

Returns:

The number of bytes that can be read without blocking.

Throws:

IOException - if the number of available bytes can not be determined.

close

public void close()
           throws IOException

Closes the input stream and releases all resources allocated to it.

Throws:

IOException - if the output stream can not be closed.

mark

public void mark(int readLimit)

Marks the current position in the input stream.

Parameters:

readLimit - The position to be marked.

markSupported

public boolean markSupported()

Returns an indication of support for input stream marking.

Returns:

true if marking is supported.

read

public int read()
         throws IOException

Returns a byte from the input stream.

Returns:

The next byte from input stream, or -1 if the stream is positioned at end of file.

Throws:

IOException - if the input stream can not be read.

read

public int read(byte[] b)
         throws IOException

Reads bytes from the input stream into an array. This method blocks until the array can be filled, or the end of the stream is reached.

Parameters:

b - The array in which to store the bytes read.

Returns:

The number of bytes stored in the array, or -1 if the input stream is positioned at end of file.

Throws:

IOException - if the input stream can not be read.

read

public int read(byte[] b,
                int off,
                int len)
         throws IOException

Read bytes from the input stream into an array or subarray. This method blocks until the maximum specified number of bytes are read, or the end of the stream is reached.

Parameters:

b - The array in which to store the bytes read.

off - The offset in the array at which to begin storing bytes.

len - The maximum number of bytes to read.

Returns:

The number of bytes read, or -1 if the input stream is positioned at end of file.

Throws:

IOException - if the input stream can not be read.

readLine

public String readLine()
                throws IOException

Reads a line of text from the input stream using the default character encoding for the platform.

Returns:

The line of text read, with end of line sequence removed, or null if the stream is positioned at end of file.

Throws:

IOException - if the input stream can not be read.

readLine

public String readLine(String encoding)
                throws IOException

Read a line of text from the input stream using a specified character encoding.

Parameters:

encoding - The character encoding to apply to the bytes read from the input stream.

Returns:

The line of text read, with end of line sequence removed, or null if the stream is positioned at end of file.

Throws:

IOException - if the input stream can not be read.

reset

public void reset()
           throws IOException

Resets the input stream to the position of the last mark set.

Throws:
