Class ReadAheadInputStream

java.lang.Object
java.io.InputStream
java.io.FilterInputStream
org.apache.commons.io.input.ReadAheadInputStream
All Implemented Interfaces:
Closeable, AutoCloseable

Implements InputStream to asynchronously read ahead from an underlying input stream when a specified amount of data has been read from the current buffer. It does so by maintaining two buffers: an active buffer and a read ahead buffer. The active buffer contains data which should be returned when a read() call is issued. The read ahead buffer is used to asynchronously read from the underlying input stream. When the current active buffer is exhausted, we flip the two buffers so that we can start reading from the read ahead buffer without being blocked by disk I/O.

To build an instance, use ReadAheadInputStream.Builder.

This class was ported and adapted from Apache Spark commit 933dc6cb7b3de1d8ccaf73d124d6eb95b947ed19.
