Uses of InputStream in java.io

Subclasses of InputStream in java.io

Modifier and Type	Class and Description
class	ByteArrayInputStream A ByteArrayInputStream contains an internal buffer that contains bytes that may be read from the stream.
class	DataInputStream A data input stream lets an application read primitive Java data types from an underlying input stream in a machine-independent way.
class	FilterInputStream A FilterInputStream contains some other input stream, which it uses as its basic source of data, possibly transforming the data along the way or providing additional functionality.
class	ObjectInputStream An ObjectInputStream deserializes primitive data and objects previously written using an ObjectOutputStream.
class	PushbackInputStream A PushbackInputStream adds functionality to another input stream, namely the ability to "push back" or "unread" one byte.
