5012N/AA package of the Java Image I/O API dealing with low-level I/O from
3516N/AThe <
code>ImageInputStream</
code> interface unifies streaming and
3516N/Afile-based operations. An abstract base class,
5012N/A<
code>ImageInputStreamImpl</
code> is provided to simplify writing
5012N/Aa new <
code>ImageInputStream</
code> class. Concrete implementation
5012N/Aclasses (<
code>FileImageInputStream</
code>,
5012N/A<
code>FileCacheImageInputStream</
code>, and
5012N/A<
code>MemoryCacheImageInputStream</
code>) are provided that allow
5012N/Ainput to come from a <
code>File</
code> or <
code>InputStream</
code>
5012N/Awith or without the use of a temporary cache file.
The <
code>ImageOutputStream</
code> interface performs an analogous
function for output. An abstract base class,
<
code>ImageOutputStreamImpl</
code> is provided, along with
concrete implementation classes (<
code>FileImageOutputStream</
code>,
<
code>FileCacheImageOutputStream</
code>, and
<
code>MemoryCacheImageOutputStream</
code>) are provided that allow
output to go to a <
code>File</
code> or <
code>OutputStream</
code> with
or without the use of a temporary cache file.
The <
code>IIOByteBuffer</
code> class provides an alternative way to
perform reads of sequences of bytes that reduces the amount of
