Interface Summary |
Closeable |
A Closeable class represents a stream of
data, which can be closed when it is no longer needed. |
DataInput |
This interface is implemented by classes that can data from streams
into Java primitive types. |
DataOutput |
This interface is implemented by classes that can wrte data to streams
from Java primitive types. |
Externalizable |
This interface provides a way that classes can completely control how
the data of their object instances are written and read to and from
streams. |
FileFilter |
This interface has one method which is used for filtering pathnames
returned in a pathname listing. |
FilenameFilter |
This interface has one method which is used for filtering filenames
returned in a directory listing. |
Flushable |
A Flushable class represents a stream of
data, for which internally buffered data can be `flushed'. |
ObjectInput |
This interface extends the DataInput interface to provide a
facility to read objects as well as primitive types from a stream. |
ObjectInputValidation |
This class allows an object to validate that it is valid after
deserialization has run completely for it and all dependent objects. |
ObjectOutput |
This interface extends DataOutput to provide the additional
facility of writing object instances to a stream. |
ObjectStreamConstants |
This interface contains constants that are used in object
serialization. |
Serializable |
This interface has no methods. |

filter the output they write. |
FilterReader |
This is the common superclass of all standard classes that filter
input. |
FilterWriter |

that filter the output they write. |
InputStream |
This abstract class forms the base of the hierarchy of classes that read
input as a stream of bytes. |
InputStreamReader |
This class reads characters from a byte input stream. |
LineNumberInputStream |
Deprecated. This class is deprecated in favor if
LineNumberReader because it operates on ASCII bytes
instead of an encoded character stream. |
LineNumberReader |
This class functions like a standard Reader except that it
counts line numbers, and canonicalizes newline characters. |
ObjectInputStream |
|
ObjectInputStream.GetField |
This class allows a class to specify exactly which fields should
be read, and what values should be read for these fields. |

|
ObjectOutputStream |
An ObjectOutputStream can be used to write objects
as well as primitive data in a platform-independent manner to an
OutputStream . |
ObjectOutputStream.PutField |
This class allows a class to specify exactly which fields should
be written, and what values should be written for these fields. |
ObjectStreamClass |
|
ObjectStreamClass.InterfaceComparator |
|
ObjectStreamClass.MemberComparator |
|
ObjectStreamField |
This class intends to describe the field of a class for the serialization
subsystem. |
OutputStream |
This abstract class forms the base of the hierarchy of classes that
write output as a stream of bytes. |
OutputStreamWriter |
This class writes characters to an output stream that is byte oriented
It converts the chars that are written to bytes using an encoding layer,
which is specific to a particular encoding standard. |
PipedInputStream |
An input stream that reads its bytes from an output stream
to which it is connected. |
PipedOutputStream |
This class writes its bytes to a PipedInputStream to
which it is connected. |
PipedReader |
An input stream that reads characters from a piped writer to which it is
connected. |
PipedWriter |
This class writes its chars to a PipedReader to
which it is connected. |
PrintStream |
This class prints Java primitive values and object to a stream as
text. |
PrintWriter |
This class prints Java primitive values and objects to a stream as
text. |
PushbackInputStream |
This subclass of FilterInputStream provides the ability to
unread data from a stream. |
PushbackReader |
This subclass of FilterReader provides the ability to
unread data from a stream. |
RandomAccessFile |
This class allows reading and writing of files at random locations. |
Reader |
This abstract class forms the base of the hierarchy of classes that read
input as a stream of characters. |

This class merges a sequence of multiple InputStream 's in
order to form a single logical stream that can be read by applications
that expect only one stream. |

|
VMObjectStreamClass |
|
Writer |
This abstract class forms the base of the hierarchy of classes that
write output as a stream of chars. |
