LineInputStream (Jakarta Mail API 1.6.7 API)

java.lang.Object
- java.io.InputStream
- - java.io.FilterInputStream
  - - com.sun.mail.util.LineInputStream

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Closeable, java.lang.AutoCloseable
```
public class LineInputStream
extends java.io.FilterInputStream
```
LineInputStream supports reading CRLF terminated lines that contain only US-ASCII characters from an input stream. Provides functionality that is similar to the deprecated DataInputStream.readLine(). Expected use is to read lines as String objects from an IMAP/SMTP/etc. stream.
This class also supports UTF-8 data by calling the appropriate constructor. Or, if the System property mail.mime.allowutf8 is set to true, an attempt will be made to interpret the data as UTF-8, falling back to treating it as an 8-bit charset if that fails.
LineInputStream is implemented as a FilterInputStream, so one can just wrap it around any input stream and read bytes from this filter.

public java.lang.String readLine()
                          throws java.io.IOException
```
    Read a line containing only ASCII characters from the input stream. A line is terminated by a CR or NL or CR-NL sequence. A common error is a CR-CR-NL sequence, which will also terminate a line. The line terminator is not returned as part of the returned String. Returns null if no data is available.
    This class is similar to the deprecated DataInputStream.readLine()
    
    Returns:
    
    the line
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - for I/O errors
