Interface ExternalizableInputStream

  • public interface ExternalizableInputStream
    This interface is normally used to extend an InputStream to indicate that it has a URI form that could be used in place of the InputStream if desired. It is used in situations where the internal of a ResourceProvider wants to offload IO to channels that do not pass through the JVM. The URI that is returned may have restrictions imposed on it requiring it to be used immediately. Do not store the URI for later usage as it will, in most cases, have expired.
