      extended by com.ibm.as400.access.IFSFileInputStream
All Implemented Interfaces:
Closeable, Serializable
Direct Known Subclasses:
IFSTextFileInputStream

public class IFSFileInputStream
extends InputStream
implements Serializable

Represents an integrated file system input stream. An integrated file system file input stream is an input stream for reading data from integrated file system objects.
IFSFileInputStream objects are capable of generating file events that call the following FileListener methods: fileClosed and fileOpened.
The following example illustrates the use of IFSFileInputStream:

 // Work with /Dir/File on the system eniac.
 AS400 as400 = new AS400("eniac");
 IFSFileInputStream file = new IFSFileInputStream(as400, "/Dir/File");
// Determine how many bytes are available on the stream. int available = file.available();
// Lock the first 8 bytes of the file. IFSKey key = file.lock(8);
// Read the first 8 bytes. byte[] data = new byte[8]; int bytesRead = file.read(data, 0, 8);
// Unlock the first 8 bytes of the file. file.unlock(key);
// Close the file. file.close();
