public XMLInputStream(URL url) throws IOException;Builds the XMLInputStream. This constructor is intended to be called on Windows to speed up input speed. The decoding is done by IXMLStream Note: This constructor relies on CXMLStream class in xmlurlstream.dll. If xmlurlstream.dll or xmlurlstream.tlb is not properly registered on the system, or the encoding of the input stream cannot be handled, this constructor throws an IOException
public XMLInputStream(InputStream in);Builds the XMLInputStream. Reads the first four bytes of the InputStream in order to make a guess as to the character encoding of the file. Assumes that the document is following the XML standard and that any non-UTF-8 file will begin with a tag.
public void close() throws IOException;Close the stream and release system resources.
public XMLOutputStream createOutputStream( OutputStream out);Creates a new XMLOutputStream with the proper initial state. XMLOutputStreams should always be created through this method if the output stream is to mimic this input stream.
public int read() throws IOException;Returns the next unicode char in the stream. The read done depends on the current readState. POP states imply that there are characters that have been pushed onto the next[] stack.
public void setEncoding( String encoding ) throws IOException;Defines the character encoding of the stream. The new character encoding must agree with the encoding determined by the constructer. setEncoding is used to clarify between encodings that are not fully determinable through the first four bytes in a stream and not to change the encoding. This method must be called within 4096 reads() after construction.
