Uses of Class
java.io.InputStream

Packages that use InputStream

java.io	Provides for system input and output through data streams, serialization and the file system.
java.lang	Provides classes that are fundamental to the design of the Java programming language.
java.net	Provides the classes for implementing networking applications.
java.security	Provides the classes and interfaces for the security framework.
java.util	Contains the collections framework, legacy collection classes, event model, date and time facilities, internationalization, and miscellaneous utility classes (a string tokenizer, a random-number generator, and a bit array).
java.util.jar	Provides classes for reading and writing the JAR (Java ARchive) file format, which is based on the standard ZIP file format with an optional manifest file.
java.util.zip	Provides classes for reading and writing the standard ZIP and GZIP file formats.
javax.microedition.io	Provides a simplified mechanism for applications to use various types of I/O protocols in resource-constrained environments.

Uses of InputStream in java.io

Subclasses of InputStream in java.io

class	BufferedInputStream A BufferedInputStream adds functionality to another input stream-namely, the ability to buffer the input and to support the mark and reset methods.
class	ByteArrayInputStream A ByteArrayInputStream contains an internal buffer that contains bytes that may be read from the stream.
class	DataInputStream A data input stream lets an application read primitive Java data types from an underlying input stream in a machine-independent way.
class	FileInputStream A FileInputStream obtains input bytes from a file in a file system.
class	FilterInputStream A FilterInputStream contains some other input stream, which it uses as its basic source of data, possibly transforming the data along the way or providing additional functionality.
class	ObjectInputStream An ObjectInputStream deserializes primitive data and objects previously written using an ObjectOutputStream.
class	PipedInputStream A piped input stream should be connected to a piped output stream; the piped input stream then provides whatever data bytes are written to the piped output stream.
class	PushbackInputStream A PushbackInputStream adds functionality to another input stream, namely the ability to "push back" or "unread" one byte.

Fields in java.io declared as InputStream

protected InputStream

FilterInputStream.in The input stream to be filtered.

Constructors in java.io with parameters of type InputStream

PushbackInputStream(InputStream in, int size)
Creates a PushbackInputStream with a pushback buffer of the specified size, and saves its argument, the input stream in, for later use.

PushbackInputStream(InputStream in)
Creates a PushbackInputStream and saves its argument, the input stream in, for later use.

InputStreamReader(InputStream in)
Create an InputStreamReader that uses the default character encoding.

InputStreamReader(InputStream in, String enc)
Create an InputStreamReader that uses the named character encoding.

ObjectInputStream(InputStream in)
Creates an ObjectInputStream that reads from the specified InputStream.

FilterInputStream(InputStream in)
Creates a FilterInputStream by assigning the argument in to the field this.in so as to remember it for later use.

DataInputStream(InputStream in)
Creates a DataInputStream that uses the specified underlying InputStream.

BufferedInputStream(InputStream in)
Creates a BufferedInputStream and saves its argument, the input stream in, for later use.

BufferedInputStream(InputStream in, int size)
Creates a BufferedInputStream with the specified buffer size, and saves its argument, the input stream in, for later use.
