LineNumberReader
extends BufferedReader
java.lang.Object | |||
↳ | java.io.Reader | ||
↳ | java.io.BufferedReader | ||
↳ | java.io.LineNumberReader |
A buffered character-input stream that keeps track of line numbers. This
class defines methods setLineNumber(int)
and getLineNumber()
for setting and getting the current line number
respectively.
By default, line numbering begins at 0. This number increments at every line terminator as the data is read, and can be changed with a call to setLineNumber(int). Note however, that setLineNumber(int) does not actually change the current position in the stream; it only changes the value that will be returned by getLineNumber().
A line is considered to be terminated by any one of a line feed ('\n'), a carriage return ('\r'), or a carriage return followed immediately by a linefeed.

LineNumberReader (Reader in)
Create a new line-numbering reader, using the default input-buffer size.
Parameters | |
---|---|
in |
Reader :
A Reader object to provide the underlying stream
|
LineNumberReader (Reader in, int sz)
Create a new line-numbering reader, reading characters into a buffer of the given size.
Parameters | |
---|---|
in |
Reader :
A Reader object to provide the underlying stream |
sz |
int :
An int specifying the size of the buffer
|
int getLineNumber ()
Get the current line number.
Returns | |
---|---|
int |
The current line number |
See also:
void mark (int readAheadLimit)
Mark the present position in the stream. Subsequent calls to reset() will attempt to reposition the stream to this point, and will also reset the line number appropriately.
Parameters | |
---|---|
readAheadLimit |
int :
Limit on the number of characters that may be read while still
preserving the mark. After reading this many characters,
attempting to reset the stream may fail. |
Throws | |
---|---|
IOException |
If an I/O error occurs |
int read ()
Read a single character. Line terminators are compressed into single newline ('\n') characters. Whenever a line terminator is read the current line number is incremented.
Returns | |
---|---|
int |
The character read, or -1 if the end of the stream has been reached |
Throws | |
---|---|
IOException |
If an I/O error occurs |
int read (char[] cbuf, int off, int len)
Read characters into a portion of an array. Whenever a line terminator is read the current line number is incremented.
Parameters | |
---|---|
cbuf |
char :
Destination buffer |
off |
int :
Offset at which to start storing characters |
len |
int :
Maximum number of characters to read |
Returns | |
---|---|
int |
The number of bytes read, or -1 if the end of the stream has already been reached |
Throws | |
---|---|
IOException |
If an I/O error occurs |
String readLine ()
Read a line of text. Whenever a line terminator is read the current line number is incremented.
Returns | |
---|---|
String |
A String containing the contents of the line, not including any line termination characters, or null if the end of the stream has been reached |
Throws | |
---|---|
IOException |
If an I/O error occurs |
void reset ()
Reset the stream to the most recent mark.
Throws | |
---|---|
IOException |
If the stream has not been marked, or if the mark has been invalidated |
void setLineNumber (int lineNumber)
Set the current line number.
Parameters | |
---|---|
lineNumber |
int :
An int specifying the line number |
See also:
long skip (long n)
Skip characters.
Parameters | |
---|---|
n |
long :
The number of characters to skip |
Returns | |
---|---|
long |
The number of characters actually skipped |
Throws | |
---|---|
IOException |
If an I/O error occurs |
IllegalArgumentException |
If n is negative |
