public class UnicodeInputStream
extends InputStream

This is an input stream that is unicode BOM aware. This allows you to e.g. read Windows Notepad Unicode files as Velocity templates. It allows you to check the actual encoding of a file by calling getEncodingFromStream() on the input stream reader. This class is not thread safe! When more than one thread wants to use an instance of UnicodeInputStream, the caller must provide synchronization.

Constructor Detail

UnicodeInputStream

public UnicodeInputStream(InputStream inputStream)
                   throws IllegalStateException,
                          IOException
Creates a new UnicodeInputStream object. Skips a BOM which defines the file encoding.

Parameters:
inputStream - The input stream to use for reading.
Throws:
IllegalStateException
IOException

UnicodeInputStream

public UnicodeInputStream(InputStream inputStream,
                          boolean skipBOM)
                   throws IllegalStateException,
                          IOException
Creates a new UnicodeInputStream object.

Parameters:
inputStream - The input stream to use for reading.
skipBOM - If this is set to true, a BOM read from the stream is discarded. This parameter should normally be true.
Throws:
IllegalStateException
IOException
Method Detail

isSkipBOM

public boolean isSkipBOM()
Returns true if the input stream discards the BOM.

Returns:
True if the input stream discards the BOM.

getEncodingFromStream

public String getEncodingFromStream()
Read encoding based on BOM.

Returns:
The encoding based on the BOM.
Throws:
IllegalStateException - When a problem reading the BOM occured.

readEncoding

protected String readEncoding()
                       throws IOException
This method gets the encoding from the stream contents if a BOM exists. If no BOM exists, the encoding is undefined.

Returns:
The encoding of this streams contents as decided by the BOM or null if no BOM was found.
Throws:
IOException
