All Superinterfaces:

DataInput
```
@GwtIncompatible
public interface ByteArrayDataInput
extends DataInput
```
An extension of DataInput for reading from in-memory byte arrays; its methods offer identical functionality but do not throw IOException.
Warning: The caller is responsible for not attempting to read past the end of the array. If any method encounters the end of the array prematurely, it throws IllegalStateException to signify programmer error. This behavior is a technical violation of the supertype's contract, which specifies a checked exception.

  - readFully
```
void readFully(byte[] b)
```
    Description copied from interface: java.io.DataInput
    Reads some bytes from an input stream and stores them into the buffer array b. The number of bytes read is equal to the length of b.
    This method blocks until one of the following conditions occurs:
    
    b.length bytes of input data are available, in which case a normal return is made.
    End of file is detected, in which case an EOFException is thrown.
    An I/O error occurs, in which case an IOException other than EOFException is thrown.
    
    If b is null, a NullPointerException is thrown. If b.length is zero, then no bytes are read. Otherwise, the first byte read is stored into element b[0], the next one into b[1], and so on. If an exception is thrown from this method, then it may be that some but not all bytes of b have been updated with data from the input stream.
    Specified by:
    
    readFully in interface DataInput
    
    Parameters:
    
    b - the buffer into which the data is read.
  - readFully
```
void readFully(byte[] b,
               int off,
               int len)
```
    Description copied from interface: java.io.DataInput
    Reads len bytes from an input stream.
    This method blocks until one of the following conditions occurs:
    
    len bytes of input data are available, in which case a normal return is made.
    End of file is detected, in which case an EOFException is thrown.
    An I/O error occurs, in which case an IOException other than EOFException is thrown.
    
    If b is null, a NullPointerException is thrown. If off is negative, or len is negative, or off+len is greater than the length of the array b, then an IndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown. If len is zero, then no bytes are read. Otherwise, the first byte read is stored into element b[off], the next one into b[off+1], and so on. The number of bytes read is, at most, equal to len.
    Specified by:
    
    readFully in interface DataInput
    
    Parameters:
    
    b - the buffer into which the data is read.
    
    off - an int specifying the offset in the data array b.
    
    len - an int specifying the number of bytes to read.
  - skipBytes
```
int skipBytes(int n)
```
    Description copied from interface: java.io.DataInput
    
    Makes an attempt to skip over n bytes of data from the input stream, discarding the skipped bytes. However, it may skip over some smaller number of bytes, possibly zero. This may result from any of a number of conditions; reaching end of file before n bytes have been skipped is only one possibility. This method never throws an EOFException. The actual number of bytes skipped is returned.
    
    Specified by:
    
    skipBytes in interface DataInput
    
    Parameters:
    
    n - the number of bytes to be skipped.
    
    Returns:
    
    the number of bytes actually skipped.

```
    Description copied from interface: java.io.DataInput
    
    Reads four input bytes and returns a float value.

    Description copied from interface: java.io.DataInput

    Specified by:
    
    readDouble in interface DataInput
    
    Returns:
    
    the double value read.
  - readLine
```
@CanIgnoreReturnValue
String readLine()
```
    Description copied from interface: java.io.DataInput
    
    Reads the next line of text from the input stream. It reads successive bytes, converting each byte separately into a character, until it encounters a line terminator or end of file; the characters read are then returned as a String. Note that because this method processes bytes, it does not support input of the full Unicode character set.
    If end of file is encountered before even one byte can be read, then null is returned. Otherwise, each byte that is read is converted to type char by zero-extension. If the character '\n' is encountered, it is discarded and reading ceases. If the character '\r' is encountered, it is discarded and, if the following byte converts to the character '\n', then that is discarded also; reading then ceases. If end of file is encountered before either of the characters '\n' and '\r' is encountered, reading ceases. Once reading has ceased, a String is returned that contains all the characters read and not discarded, taken in order. Note that every character in this string will have a value less than \u0100, that is, (char)256.
    
    Specified by:
    
    readLine in interface DataInput
    
    Returns:
    
    the next line of text from the input stream, or null if the end of file is encountered before a byte can be read.
  - readUTF
```
@CanIgnoreReturnValue
String readUTF()
```
    Description copied from interface: java.io.DataInput
    Reads in a string that has been encoded using a modified UTF-8 format. The general contract of readUTF is that it reads a representation of a Unicode character string encoded in modified UTF-8 format; this string of characters is then returned as a String.
    First, two bytes are read and used to construct an unsigned 16-bit integer in exactly the manner of the readUnsignedShort method . This integer value is called the UTF length and specifies the number of additional bytes to be read. These bytes are then converted to characters by considering them in groups. The length of each group is computed from the value of the first byte of the group. The byte following a group, if any, is the first byte of the next group.
    If the first byte of a group matches the bit pattern 0xxxxxxx (where x means "may be 0 or 1"), then the group consists of just that byte. The byte is zero-extended to form a character.
    If the first byte of a group matches the bit pattern 110xxxxx, then the group consists of that byte a and a second byte b. If there is no byte b (because byte a was the last of the bytes to be read), or if byte b does not match the bit pattern 10xxxxxx, then a UTFDataFormatException is thrown. Otherwise, the group is converted to the character:
    (char)(((a & 0x1F) << 6) | (b & 0x3F))
    If the first byte of a group matches the bit pattern 1110xxxx, then the group consists of that byte a and two more bytes b and c. If there is no byte c (because byte a was one of the last two of the bytes to be read), or either byte b or byte c does not match the bit pattern 10xxxxxx, then a UTFDataFormatException is thrown. Otherwise, the group is converted to the character:
    (char)(((a & 0x0F) << 12) | ((b & 0x3F) << 6) | (c & 0x3F))
    If the first byte of a group matches the pattern 1111xxxx or the pattern 10xxxxxx, then a UTFDataFormatException is thrown.
    If end of file is encountered at any time during this entire process, then an EOFException is thrown.
    After every group has been converted to a character by this process, the characters are gathered, in the same order in which their corresponding groups were read from the input stream, to form a String, which is returned.
    The writeUTF method of interface DataOutput may be used to write data that is suitable for reading by this method.
    Specified by:
    
    readUTF in interface DataInput
    
    Returns:
    
    a Unicode string.
