Uses of Class
java.io.FilterInputStream

Packages that use FilterInputStream
java.io Provides for system input and output through data streams, serialization and the file system. 
java.security Provides the classes and interfaces for the security framework. 
java.util.jar Provides classes for reading and writing the JAR (Java ARchive) file format, which is based on the standard ZIP file format with an optional manifest file. 
java.util.zip Provides classes for reading and writing the standard ZIP and GZIP file formats. 
javax.crypto Provides the classes and interfaces for cryptographic operations. 
javax.swing Provides a set of "lightweight" (all-Java language) components that, to the maximum degree possible, work the same on all platforms. 
 

Uses of FilterInputStream in java.io
 

Subclasses of FilterInputStream in java.io
 class BufferedInputStream
          A BufferedInputStream adds functionality to another input stream-namely, the ability to buffer the input and to support the mark and reset methods.
 class DataInputStream
          A data input stream lets an application read primitive Java data types from an underlying input stream in a machine-independent way.
 class LineNumberInputStream
          Deprecated. This class incorrectly assumes that bytes adequately represent characters. As of JDK 1.1, the preferred way to operate on character streams is via the new character-stream classes, which include a class for counting line numbers.
 class PushbackInputStream
          A PushbackInputStream adds functionality to another input stream, namely the ability to "push back" or "unread" one byte.
 

Uses of FilterInputStream in java.security
 

Subclasses of FilterInputStream in java.security
 class DigestInputStream
          A transparent stream that updates the associated message digest using the bits going through the stream.
 

Uses of FilterInputStream in java.util.jar
 

Subclasses of FilterInputStream in java.util.jar
 class JarInputStream
          The JarInputStream class is used to read the contents of a JAR file from any input stream.
 

Uses of FilterInputStream in java.util.zip
 

Subclasses of FilterInputStream in java.util.zip
 class CheckedInputStream
          An input stream that also maintains a checksum of the data being read.
 class DeflaterInputStream
          Implements an input stream filter for compressing data in the "deflate" compression format.
 class GZIPInputStream
          This class implements a stream filter for reading compressed data in the GZIP file format.
 class InflaterInputStream
          This class implements a stream filter for uncompressing data in the "deflate" compression format.
 class ZipInputStream
          This class implements an input stream filter for reading files in the ZIP file format.
 

Uses of FilterInputStream in javax.crypto
 

Subclasses of FilterInputStream in javax.crypto
 class CipherInputStream
          A CipherInputStream is composed of an InputStream and a Cipher so that read() methods return data that are read in from the underlying InputStream but have been additionally processed by the Cipher.
 

Uses of FilterInputStream in javax.swing
 

Subclasses of FilterInputStream in javax.swing
 class ProgressMonitorInputStream
          Monitors the progress of reading from some InputStream.
