public interface InputBuffer

Input buffer. This class is used only in the protocol implementation. All reading from tomcat ( or adapter ) should be done using Request.doRead().

doRead

int doRead(ByteChunk chunk,
           Request request)
           throws java.io.IOException

Return from the input stream. IMPORTANT: the current model assumes that the protocol will 'own' the buffer and return a pointer to it in ByteChunk ( i.e. the param will have chunk.getBytes()==null before call, and the result after the call ).

Throws:

java.io.IOException
