public class VerifyStream
extends java.io.FilterInputStream

This InputStream reads the stream generated by a SignStream and verifies the embedded signatures. It will not pass any data through until that data has been verified.

Constructor Detail

VerifyStream

public VerifyStream(java.io.InputStream in,
                    int blockSize,
                    SignatureKey key,
                    HashState fs)
Create a new VerifyStream object. It matches the SignStream object with the same blockSize and fs and with the key that matches key

Method Detail

read

public int read()
         throws java.io.IOException
Reads the next byte of data from this input stream. The value byte is returned as an int in the range 0 to 255. If no byte is available because the end of the stream has been reached, the value -1 is returned. This method blocks until input data is available, the end of the stream is detected, or an exception is thrown.
Overrides:
read in class java.io.FilterInputStream

read

public int read(byte[] b,
                int off,
                int len)
         throws java.io.IOException
Reads up to len bytes of data from this input stream into an array of bytes. This method blocks until some input is available.

The actual number of bytes read is returned or -1 if the end of the stream is reached.

Overrides:
read in class java.io.FilterInputStream

skip

public long skip(long n)
          throws java.io.IOException
Skips over and discards n bytes of data from the input stream. The skip method may, for a variety of reasons, end up skipping over some smaller number of bytes, possibly 0. The actual number of bytes skipped is returned.
Overrides:
skip in class java.io.FilterInputStream

available

public int available()
              throws java.io.IOException
Returns the number of bytes that can be read from this input stream without blocking.
Overrides:
available in class java.io.FilterInputStream

markSupported

public boolean markSupported()
Returns false. (This could be implemented, but I've never seen it used. Mail me if you want it!)
Overrides:
markSupported in class java.io.FilterInputStream
