Class LineReader

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.hadoop.util.LineReader

Direct Known Subclasses:
  LineRecordReader.LineReader

    public class LineReader

extends Object

A class that provides a line reader from an input stream.

Constructor Summary
`LineReader(InputStream in)` Create a line reader that reads from the given stream using the default buffer-size (64k).
`LineReader(InputStream in, Configuration conf)` Create a line reader that reads from the given stream using the `io.file.buffer.size` specified in the given `Configuration`.
`LineReader(InputStream in, int bufferSize)` Create a line reader that reads from the given stream using the given buffer-size.

Method Summary
`void` | `close()` Close the underlying stream.
`int` | `readLine(Text str)` Read from the InputStream into the given Text.
`int` | `readLine(Text str, int maxLineLength)` Read from the InputStream into the given Text.
`int` | `readLine(Text str, int maxLineLength, int maxBytesToConsume)` Read one line from the InputStream into the given Text.

Constructor Detail

### LineReader

    public LineReader(InputStream in)

  Create a line reader that reads from the given stream using the default buffer-size (64k).

  Parameters:
    `in` - The input stream
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### LineReader

    public LineReader(InputStream in,
                      int bufferSize)

  Create a line reader that reads from the given stream using the given buffer-size.

  Parameters:
    `in` - The input stream
    `bufferSize` - Size of the read buffer
  Throws:
    `IOException`

### LineReader

    public LineReader(InputStream in,
                      Configuration conf)
               throws IOException

  Create a line reader that reads from the given stream using the `io.file.buffer.size` specified in the given `Configuration`.

  Parameters:
    `in` - input stream
    `conf` - configuration
  Throws:
    `IOException`

Method Detail

### close

    public void close()
               throws IOException

  Close the underlying stream.

  Throws:
    `IOException`

### readLine

    public int readLine(Text str,
                        int maxLineLength,
                        int maxBytesToConsume)
                 throws IOException

  Read one line from the InputStream into the given Text. A line can be terminated by one of the following: '\n' (LF) , '\r' (CR), or '\r\n' (CR+LF). EOF also terminates an otherwise unterminated line.

  Parameters:
    `str` - the object to store the given line (without newline)
    `maxLineLength` - the maximum number of bytes to store into str; the rest of the line is silently discarded.
    `maxBytesToConsume` - the maximum number of bytes to consume in this call. This is only a hint, because if the line cross this threshold, we allow it to happen. It can overshoot potentially by as much as one buffer length.
  Returns:
    the number of bytes read including the (longest) newline found.
  Throws:
    `IOException` - if the underlying stream throws

### readLine

    public int readLine(Text str,
                        int maxLineLength)
                 throws IOException

  Read from the InputStream into the given Text.

  Parameters:
    `str` - the object to store the given line
    `maxLineLength` - the maximum number of bytes to store into str.
  Returns:
    the number of bytes read including the newline
  Throws:
    `IOException` - if the underlying stream throws

### readLine

    public int readLine(Text str)
                 throws IOException

  Read from the InputStream into the given Text.

  Parameters:
    `str` - the object to store the given line
  Returns:
    the number of bytes read including the newline
  Throws:
    `IOException` - if the underlying stream throws
