Constructor Detail

MultiReader

public MultiReader(java.io.Reader reader)

Method Detail

toString

public static java.lang.String toString(java.io.Reader reader)
                                 throws java.io.IOException

Throws:

java.io.IOException

isClosed

public boolean isClosed()

reopen

public void reopen()
            throws java.io.IOException

Allows this MultiReader to be reused. You have to call this every first time after closing the reader.

Forcing people to use this function makes MultiReader less convenient but more predictable to use. Otherwise, it would silently loop back to the beginning, and instead of getting a proper IOException, people would get the beginning of the stream again.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if you call this before closing the reader

getCopy

public java.io.Reader getCopy()
                       throws java.io.IOException

Return a copy of the Reader. This is if you want to read in multiple threads.

Throws:

java.io.IOException
