PipedInputStream PipedInputStream(PipedOutputStream) in Java

PipedInputStream(PipedOutputStream): This method is available in the java.io.PipedInputStream class of Java.

Syntax:

java.io.PipedInputStream.PipedInputStream(PipedOutputStream src) throws IOException

This method takes one argument. This method creates a PipedInputStream so that it is connected to the piped output stream src.

Data bytes written to src will then be available as input from this stream.

Parameters: One parameter is required for this method.

src: the stream to connect to.

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

Approach

Java

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PipedInputStream;
import java.io.PipedOutputStream;

public class PipedInputStreamPipedInputStream3 {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

        PipedOutputStream src = new PipedOutputStream();
        PipedInputStream pipedInputStream = 
                            new PipedInputStream(src);

        System.out.println(pipedInputStream);

        pipedInputStream.close();
    }
}

Output:

java.io.PipedInputStream@4361bd48

Some other methods of PipedInputStream

close(): This method closes this piped input stream and releases any system resources associated with the stream.

connect(PipedOutputStream): This method causes this piped input stream to be connected to the piped output stream src.

available(): This method returns the number of bytes that can be read from this input stream without blocking.

PipedInputStream(): This method creates a PipedInputStream so that it is not yet connected.

PipedInputStream(int): This method creates a PipedInputStream so that it is not yet connected and uses the specified pipe size for the pipe's buffer.

PipedInputStream(PipedOutputStream): This method creates a PipedInputStream so that it is connected to the piped output stream src.

PipedInputStream(PipedOutputStream, int): This method creates a PipedInputStream so that it is connected to the piped output stream src and uses the specified pipe size for the pipe's buffer.

read(): This method reads the next byte of data from this piped input stream.

read(byte[], int, int): This method reads up to len bytes of data from this piped input stream into an array of bytes.
