Method Detail

getOutputStream

public abstract OutputStream getOutputStream()

Returns:

the underlying OutputStream

writePacket

public abstract void writePacket(byte[] packet)
                          throws IOException

Puts the given "packet" into the output stream. The packet should be filled with data. The caller is giving control of the buffer to the PacketOutputStream, and therefore should not attempt to use the byte[] again.

Parameters:

packet - fully filled array of bytes to give to the OutputStream

Throws:

IOException

create

public static OutputStreamAdapter create(OutputStream istream)

Parameters:

istream - stream to wrap and for which the implementation is optimized

Returns:

an OutputStreamAdapter optimized for the stream type
