                throws IOException

Constructor that takes a stream to parse.

Parameters:

stream - The stream to read data from.

raf - The random access file.

forceParsing - flag to skip malformed or otherwise unparseable input where possible

Throws:

IOException - If there is an error reading from the stream.

Since:

Apache PDFBox 1.3.0

PDFStreamParser

public PDFStreamParser(COSStream stream)
                throws IOException

Constructor.

Parameters:

stream - The stream to parse.

Throws:

IOException - If there is an error initializing the stream.

Method Detail

parse

public void parse()
           throws IOException

This will parse the tokens in the stream. This will close the stream when it is finished parsing.

Throws:

IOException - If there is an error while parsing the stream.

getTokens

public List<Object> getTokens()

This will get the tokens that were parsed from the stream.

Returns:

All of the tokens in the stream.

close

public void close()
           throws IOException

This will close the underlying pdfSource object.

Throws:

IOException - If there is an error releasing resources.

getTokenIterator

public Iterator<Object> getTokenIterator()

This will get an iterator which can be used to parse the stream one token after the other.

Returns:

an iterator to get one token after the other

readOperator

protected String readOperator()
                       throws IOException

This will read an operator from the stream.

Returns:

The operator that was read from the stream.

Throws:

IOException - If there is an error reading from the stream.

clearResources

public void clearResources()

Release all used resources.

Overrides:
