A description of the result state of a coder.
A charset coder, that is, either a decoder or an encoder, consumes bytes (or characters) from an input buffer, translates them, and writes the resulting characters (or bytes) to an output buffer. A coding process terminates for one of four categories of reasons, which are described by instances of this class:
Underflow is reported when there is no more input to be processed, or there is insufficient input and additional input is required. This condition is represented by the unique result object UNDERFLOW
, whose isUnderflow
method returns true
.
Overflow is reported when there is insufficient room remaining in the output buffer. This condition is represented by the unique result object OVERFLOW
, whose isOverflow
method returns true
.
A malformed-input error is reported when a sequence of input units is not well-formed. Such errors are described by instances of this class whose isMalformed
method returns true
and whose length
method returns the length of the malformed sequence. There is one unique instance of this class for all malformed-input errors of a given length.
An unmappable-character error is reported when a sequence of input units denotes a character that cannot be represented in the output charset. Such errors are described by instances of this class whose isUnmappable
method returns true
and whose length
method returns the length of the input sequence denoting the unmappable character. There is one unique instance of this class for all unmappable-character errors of a given length.
For convenience, the isError
method returns true
for result objects that describe malformed-input and unmappable-character errors but false
for those that describe underflow or overflow conditions.
Fields
Result object indicating overflow, meaning that there is insufficient room in the output buffer.
Result object indicating underflow, meaning that either the input buffer has been completely consumed or, if the input buffer is not yet empty, that additional input is required.
boolean
Tells whether or not this object describes an error condition.
boolean
Tells whether or not this object describes a malformed-input error.
boolean
Tells whether or not this object describes an overflow condition.
boolean
Tells whether or not this object describes an underflow condition.
boolean
Tells whether or not this object describes an unmappable-character error.
int
Returns the length of the erroneous input described by this object (optional operation).
Static factory method that returns the unique object describing a malformed-input error of the given length.
void
Throws an exception appropriate to the result described by this object.
Returns a string describing this coder result.
Static factory method that returns the unique result object describing an unmappable-character error of the given length.
Result object indicating underflow, meaning that either the input buffer has been completely consumed or, if the input buffer is not yet empty, that additional input is required.
Result object indicating overflow, meaning that there is insufficient room in the output buffer.
Returns a string describing this coder result.

length
- The given length
Static factory method that returns the unique result object describing an unmappable-character error of the given length.
length
- The given length
Throws an exception appropriate to the result described by this object.
BufferUnderflowException
