Class epp.EppInputStream 

java.lang.Object
   |
   +----epp.EppInputStream
public class EppInputStream
extends Object
The EppInputStream class is an input stream class specialized for EPP, that reads an input file character-by-character. It supports features such as backtracking and counting line numbers. Future versions will also process unicode escapes with this class.

Plug-ins may extend the openEppInputStream method of Epp to modify the input stream class EPP uses.

NOTE:
In order to make the implementation simpler, the border of each line is defined as follows. (Beginning of line is '\n' for Unix and Win, '\r' for Mac.) 

    Unix:  ...\n...
              ^
    Mac:   ...\r...
              ^
    Win    ...\r\n...
                ^

Methods

o peekc 
 public char peekc()
Peeks and returns one character ahead.

o getc 
 public char getc()
Reads and returns one character.

o ungetc 
 public void ungetc(char c)
Returns one character to the input stream. If the character to return is different from the character read, an error occurs.

o isEof 
 public boolean isEof()
Returns true if the input stream reached EOF and false otherwise.

o pointer 
 public int pointer()
Returns the current position in the input stream. The return value may be used as an argument to the backtrack method.
