Subclasses:
GZIPOutputStream, ZipOutputStream

public class DeflaterOutputStream
extends FilterOutputStream
This class implements an output stream filter for compressing data in the "deflate" compression format. It is also used as the basis for other types of compression filters, such as GZIPOutputStream.

Deflater

Field Summary
byte[]  buf
Output buffer for writing compressed data.
Deflater  def
Compressor for this stream.
 
Fields inherited from class java.io.FilterOutputStream
 out
 

Constructor Summary
 DeflaterOutputStream(OutputStream out, Deflater def, int size)
Creates a new output stream with the specified compressor and buffer size.
 DeflaterOutputStream(OutputStream out, Deflater def)
Creates a new output stream with the specified compressor and a default buffer size.
 DeflaterOutputStream(OutputStream out)
Creates a new output stream with a defaul compressor and buffer size.
 

Method Summary
void  close()
Writes remaining compressed data to the output stream and closes the underlying stream.
void  deflate()
Writes next block of compressed data to the output stream.
void  finish()
Finishes writing compressed data to the output stream without closing the underlying stream.
void  write(int b)
Writes a byte to the compressed output stream.
void  write(byte[] b, int off, int len)

Constructor Detail

DeflaterOutputStream

public DeflaterOutputStream(OutputStream out,
                            Deflater def,
                            int size)
Creates a new output stream with the specified compressor and buffer size.
Parameters:
out - the output stream
def - the compressor ("deflater")
len - the output buffer size

DeflaterOutputStream

public DeflaterOutputStream(OutputStream out,
                            Deflater def)
Creates a new output stream with the specified compressor and a default buffer size.
Parameters:
out - the output stream
def - the compressor ("deflater")

DeflaterOutputStream

public DeflaterOutputStream(OutputStream out)
Creates a new output stream with a defaul compressor and buffer size.
Method Detail

write

public void write(int b) throws IOException
Writes a byte to the compressed output stream. This method will block until the byte can be written.
Parameters:
b - the byte to be written
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred
Overrides:
write in class FilterOutputStream

write

public void write(byte[] b,
                  int off,
                  int len) throws IOException
Writes an array of bytes to the compressed output stream. This method will block until all the bytes are written.
Parameters:
buf - the data to be written
off - the start offset of the data
len - the length of the data
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred
Overrides:
write in class FilterOutputStream

finish

public void finish() throws IOException
Finishes writing compressed data to the output stream without closing the underlying stream. Use this method when applying multiple filters in succession to the same output stream.
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred

close

public void close() throws IOException
Writes remaining compressed data to the output stream and closes the underlying stream.
Throws:
IOException - if an I/O error has occurred
Overrides:
close in class FilterOutputStream

deflate

protected void deflate() throws IOException
Writes next block of compressed data to the output stream.
