Class PositionedStoreStream

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Closeable, java.lang.AutoCloseable, PositionedStream, Resetable

    public class PositionedStoreStream
    extends java.io.InputStream
    implements PositionedStream, Resetable
    A wrapper-stream able to reposition the underlying store stream.

    Where a user expects the underlying stream to be at a given position, reposition(long) must be called with the expected position first. A use case for this scenario is the LOB objects, where you can request a stream and at the same time (this does not mean concurrently) query the LOB about its length or ask to get a part of the LOB returned. Such multiplexed operations must result in consistent and valid data, and to achieve this the underlying store stream must be able to reposition itself. Synchronization: Access to instances of this class must be externally synchronized on the connection synchronization object. There are two reasons for this:

    • Access to store must be single threaded.
    • This class is not thread safe, and calling the various methods from different threads concurrently can result in inconsistent position values. To avoid redundant internal synchronization, this class assumes and requires external synchronization (also called client-side locking).

        Underlying store stream serving bytes.
      • pos

        private long pos
        Position of the underlying store stream. Note that the position is maintained by this class, not the underlying store stream itself. Future improvement: Add this functionality to the underlying store stream itself to avoid another level in the stream stack.

      • PositionedStoreStream

        public PositionedStoreStream​(java.io.InputStream in)
                              throws java.io.IOException,
                                     StandardException
        Creates a positioned store stream on top of the specified resettable stream.

        Upon creation, the underlying stream is initiated and reset to make sure the states of the streams are in sync with each other.

        Parameters:
        in - a Resetable-stream
        Throws:
        java.io.IOException

      • reposition

        public void reposition​(long requestedPos)
                        throws java.io.IOException,
                               StandardException
        Repositions the underlying store stream to the requested position.

        Repositioning is required because there can be several uses of the store stream, which changes the position of it. If a class is dependent on the underlying stream not changing its position, it must call reposition with the position it expects before using the stream again.

        If the repositioning fails because the stream is exhausted, most likely because of an invalid position specified by the user, the stream is reset to position zero and the EOFException is rethrown.

        Specified by:
        reposition in interface PositionedStream
        Parameters:
        requestedPos - requested byte position, first position is 0
        Throws:
        java.io.EOFException - if the stream is exhausted before the requested position is reached
        java.io.IOException - if reading from the store stream fails
        StandardException - if resetting the store in stream fails, or some other exception happens in store
