public class LineBufferedReader
extends java.io.FilterReader

A LineNumberReader with some extra features: You can seek backwards to the start of the line preceding the current position (or the mark, if that has been set). You can use seek with a negative offset, or unread. You can also use peek to look at the next character without moving. The method getColumnNumber gives you the current column. Provides a method that is called at the start of a line. This is especially useful for interactive streams (e.g. prompting). It would be nice if we could inherit from LineNumberReader. That may be possible in theory, but it is difficult and expensive (because we don't get access to BufferedReader's buffer).

Field Summary

char[]	buffer The input buffer, containing the current line etc.
int	limit The length of the valid (data-containing) part of the buffer.
protected int	lineNumber The current line number (at position of lineStartPos).
protected int	markPos The position of the mark (assuming readAheadLinit > 0).
int	pos The current read position, as an index into buffer.
protected int	readAheadLimit If mark has been called, and not invalidated, the read ahead limit.
char	readState

Field Detail

buffer

public char[] buffer

The input buffer, containing the current line etc.

pos

public int pos

The current read position, as an index into buffer.

limit

public int limit

The length of the valid (data-containing) part of the buffer.

readState

public char readState

lineNumber

protected int lineNumber

The current line number (at position of lineStartPos).

readAheadLimit

protected int readAheadLimit

If mark has been called, and not invalidated, the read ahead limit. Zero if mark has not been called, or had been invalidated (due to either calling reset or excessive reading ahead).

markPos

protected int markPos

The position of the mark (assuming readAheadLinit > 0). (Garbage if readAheadLimit <= 0).

Method Detail

getReadState

public char getReadState()

Return a character that indicates what we are currently reading. Returns '\n' if we are not inside read; '\"' if reading a string; '|' if inside a comment; '(' if inside a list; and ' ' if otherwise inside a read.

getConvertCR

public final boolean getConvertCR()

True if CR and CRLF should be converted to LF.

setConvertCR

public final void setConvertCR(boolean convertCR)

lineStart

public void lineStart(boolean revisited)
               throws java.io.IOException

A hook to allow sub-classes to perform some action at start of line. Called just before the first character of the new line is read.

Parameters:

revisited - true if we have read here before (i.e. we did a reset of unread() to get here)

Throws:

java.io.IOException

fill

public int fill(int len)
         throws java.io.IOException

Called by read() when it needs its buffer filled. Read characters into buffer, starting at off, for len. Can assume that len > 0. Only called if pos>=limit. Return -1 if EOF, otherwise number of read chars. This can be usefully overridden by sub-classes.

Throws:

java.io.IOException

setBuffer

public void setBuffer(char[] buffer)
               throws java.io.IOException

Specify a buffer to use for the input buffer.

Throws:

java.io.IOException

read

public int read()
         throws java.io.IOException

Overrides:

read in class java.io.FilterReader

Throws:

java.io.IOException

read

public int read(char[] cbuf,
                int off,
                int len)
         throws java.io.IOException

Overrides:

read in class java.io.FilterReader

Throws:

java.io.IOException

getName

public java.lang.String getName()

setName

public void setName(java.lang.String name)

getLineNumber

public int getLineNumber()

Get the current line number. The "first" line is number number 0.

setLineNumber

public void setLineNumber(int lineNumber)

getColumnNumber

public int getColumnNumber()

Return the current (zero-based) column number.

markSupported

public boolean markSupported()

Overrides:

markSupported in class java.io.FilterReader

mark

public void mark(int readAheadLimit)

Overrides:

readLine

public void readLine(java.lang.StringBuffer sbuf,
                     char mode)
              throws java.io.IOException

Read a line. If mode is 'I' ("ignore") ignore delimiters. If mode is 'P' ("peek") leave delimiter in input stream. If mode is 'A' ("append") append delimiter to result.

Throws:

java.io.IOException
