java.lang.Object java.io.InputStream BitInputStream
public class BitInputStream
The BitOutputStream and BitInputStream classes provide the ability to write and read individual bits to a file in a compact form. One minor limitation of this approach is that the resulting file will always have a number of bits that is a multiple of 8. In effect, whatever bits are output to the file are padded at the end with 0's to make the total number of bits a multiple of 8.
Constructor Summary | |
---|---|
BitInputStream(java.io.InputStream input)
Creates a BitInputStream reading bits of input from the given stream source. |
|
BitInputStream(java.io.InputStream input,
boolean bitMode)
Creates a BitInputStream reading bits/bytes input from the given stream source. |
Method Summary | |
---|---|
void |
close()
Closes this stream for reading. |
protected void |
finalize()
Called by Java when the program is shutting down; included to help ensure that the stream is closed. |
boolean |
hasNextBit()
Returns whether this stream has more bits available to be read. |
boolean |
inBitMode()
Returns whether this stream is in real 'bit mode', reading a bit from the file for each call to readBit. |
int |
read()
Reads and returns a single byte of information from this stream. |
int |
readBit()
Reads and returns the next single bit of input from this stream. |
void |
setBitMode(boolean bitMode)
Sets whether this stream is in real 'bit mode', reading a bit from the file for each call to readBit (as described under inBitMode). |
