Note that this array is not copied. If its contents are changed while this stream is being read, those changes will be reflected in the bytes supplied to the reader. Please use caution in changing the contents of the buffer while this stream is open.
buffer

offset
in the array for a length of
length
bytes past offset
. If the
stream is reset to a position before offset
then
more than length
bytes can be read from the stream.
The length
value should be viewed as the array index
one greater than the last position in the buffer to read.
Note that this array is not copied. If its contents are changed while this stream is being read, those changes will be reflected in the bytes supplied to the reader. Please use caution in changing the contents of the buffer while this stream is open.

public synchronized void mark(int readAheadLimit)
readlimit
parameter in this
method does nothing as this stream is always capable of
remembering all the bytes int it.
Note that in this class the mark position is set by default to position 0 in the stream. This is in constrast to some other stream types where there is no default mark position.

functionality.
true
to indicate that this class supports
mark/reset.public synchronized int read()
pos
counter is advanced to the next byte to be read. The byte read is
returned as an int in the range of 0-255. If the stream position
is already at the end of the buffer, no byte is read and a -1 is
returned in order to indicate the end of the stream.
public synchronized int read(byte[] b, int off, int len)
offset
into the buffer and attempts to read
len
bytes. This method can return before reading
the number of bytes requested if the end of the stream is
encountered first. The actual number of bytes read is returned.
If no bytes can be read because the stream is already at the end
of stream position, a -1 is returned.
This method does not block.
b

pos
variable equal to the
mark
variable. Since a mark can be set anywhere in
the array, the mark/reset methods int this class can be used to
provide random search capabilities for this type of stream.
public synchronized long skip(long n)
pos
value by the specified number of bytes. It this would exceed the
length of the buffer, then only enough bytes are skipped to
position the stream at the end of the buffer. The actual number
of bytes skipped is returned.
n
