java.io.Writer

javolution.io.UTF8ByteBufferWriter

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, Flushable, Appendable, AutoCloseable

public final class UTF8ByteBufferWriter
extends Writer

A UTF-8 java.nio.ByteBuffer writer.

This writer supports surrogate char pairs (representing characters in the range [U+10000 .. U+10FFFF]). It can also be used to write characters from their unicodes (31 bits) directly (ref. write(int)).

Instances of this class can be reused for different output streams and can be part of a higher level component (e.g. serializer) in order to avoid dynamic buffer allocation when the destination output changes. Also wrapping using a java.io.BufferedWriter is unnescessary as instances of this class embed their own data buffers.

Note: This writer is unsynchronized and always produces well-formed UTF-8 sequences.

Constructor Detail

UTF8ByteBufferWriter

public UTF8ByteBufferWriter()

Default constructor.

UTF8ByteBufferWriter

public UTF8ByteBufferWriter(ByteBuffer byteBuffer)

Constructor to Provide a Byte Buffer on Initialization

Parameters:

byteBuffer - Byte Buffer to use for Writing

Method Detail

getOutput

protected ByteBuffer getOutput()

setOutput

public UTF8ByteBufferWriter setOutput(ByteBuffer byteBuffer)

Sets the byte buffer to use for writing until this writer is closed.

Parameters:

byteBuffer - the destination byte buffer.

Returns:

this UTF-8 writer.

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if this writer is being reused and it has not been closed or reset.

write

public void write(char c)
           throws IOException

Writes a single character. This method supports 16-bits character surrogates.

Parameters:

c - char the character to be written (possibly a surrogate).

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

write

public void write(int code)
           throws IOException

Writes a character given its 31-bits Unicode.

Overrides:

write in class Writer

Parameters:

code - the 31 bits Unicode of the character to be written.

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

write

public void write(char[] cbuf,
         int off,
         int len)
           throws IOException

Writes a portion of an array of characters.

Specified by:

write in class Writer

Parameters:

cbuf - the array of characters.

off - the offset from which to start writing characters.

len - the number of characters to write.

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

write

public void write(String str,
         int off,
         int len)
           throws IOException

Writes a portion of a string.

Overrides:

write in class Writer

Parameters:

str - a String.

off - the offset from which to start writing characters.

len - the number of characters to write.

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs

write

public void write(CharSequence csq)
           throws IOException

Writes the specified character sequence.

Parameters:

csq - the character sequence.

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs

flush

public void flush()
           throws IOException

Flushes the stream (this method has no effect, the data is always directly written to the ByteBuffer).

Specified by:

flush in interface Flushable

Specified by:

flush in class Writer

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

close

public void close()
           throws IOException

Closes and resets this writer for reuse.

Specified by:

close in interface Closeable

Specified by:

close in interface AutoCloseable

Specified by:

close in class Writer

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs

reset

public void reset()

setByteBuffer

public UTF8ByteBufferWriter setByteBuffer(ByteBuffer byteBuffer)

Deprecated. Replaced by setOutput(ByteBuffer)
