Name

CheckedOutputStream

Synopsis

This class is a subclass of java.io.FilterOutputStream that allows data to be written to a stream and a checksum computed on that data at the same time. To create a CheckedOutputStream, you must specify both the output stream to write its data to and a Checksum object, such as an instance of Adler32, that implements the particular checksum algorithm you desire. The write( ) methods are similar to those of other OutputStream classes. The getChecksum( ) method returns the Checksum object. You must call getValue( ) on this object in order to obtain the actual checksum value.
