    - #### FileImageInputStream

          public FileImageInputStream(File f)
                               throws FileNotFoundException,
                                      IOException

      Constructs a `FileImageInputStream` that will read from a given `File`.

      The file contents must not change between the time this object is constructed and the time of the last call to a read method.

      Parameters:
        `f` - a `File` to read from.
      Throws:
        `IllegalArgumentException` - if `f` is `null`.
        `SecurityException` - if a security manager exists and does not allow read access to the file.
        `FileNotFoundException` - if `f` is a directory or cannot be opened for reading for any other reason.
        `IOException` - if an I/O error occurs.

    - #### FileImageInputStream

          public FileImageInputStream(RandomAccessFile raf)

      Constructs a `FileImageInputStream` that will read from a given `RandomAccessFile`.

      The file contents must not change between the time this object is constructed and the time of the last call to a read method.

      Parameters:
        `raf` - a `RandomAccessFile` to read from.
      Throws:
        `IllegalArgumentException` - if `raf` is `null`.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### read

          public int read()
                   throws IOException

      Description copied from class: `ImageInputStreamImpl`
      Reads a single byte from the stream and returns it as an `int` between 0 and 255. If EOF is reached, `-1` is returned.

      Subclasses must provide an implementation for this method. The subclass implementation should update the stream position before exiting.

      The bit offset within the stream must be reset to zero before the read occurs.

      Specified by:
        `read` in interface `ImageInputStream`
      Specified by:
        `read` in class `ImageInputStreamImpl`
      Returns:
        the value of the next byte in the stream, or `-1` if EOF is reached.
      Throws:
        `IOException` - if the stream has been closed.

    - #### read

          public int read(byte[] b,
                          int off,
                          int len)
                   throws IOException

      Description copied from class: `ImageInputStreamImpl`
      Reads up to `len` bytes from the stream, and stores them into `b` starting at index `off`. If no bytes can be read because the end of the stream has been reached, `-1` is returned.

      The bit offset within the stream must be reset to zero before the read occurs.

      Subclasses must provide an implementation for this method. The subclass implementation should update the stream position before exiting.

      Specified by:
        `read` in interface `ImageInputStream`
      Specified by:
        `read` in class `ImageInputStreamImpl`
      Parameters:
        `b` - an array of bytes to be written to.
        `off` - the starting position within `b` to write to.
        `len` - the maximum number of bytes to read.
      Returns:
        the number of bytes actually read, or `-1` to indicate EOF.
      Throws:
        `IOException` - if an I/O error occurs.

    - #### length

          public long length()

      Returns the length of the underlying file, or `-1` if it is unknown.
      Specified by:
        `length` in interface `ImageInputStream`
      Overrides:
        `length` in class `ImageInputStreamImpl`
      Returns:
        the file length as a `long`, or `-1`.

    - #### seek

          public void seek(long pos)
                    throws IOException

      Description copied from interface: `ImageInputStream`
      Sets the current stream position to the desired location. The next read will occur at this location. The bit offset is set to 0.

      An `IndexOutOfBoundsException` will be thrown if `pos` is smaller than the flushed position (as returned by `getflushedPosition`).

      It is legal to seek past the end of the file; an `java.io.EOFException` will be thrown only if a read is performed.

      Specified by:
        `seek` in interface `ImageInputStream`
      Overrides:
        `seek` in class `ImageInputStreamImpl`
      Parameters:
        `pos` - a `long` containing the desired file pointer position.
      Throws:
        `IOException` - if any other I/O error occurs.

    - #### close

          public void close()
                     throws IOException

      Description copied from interface: `ImageInputStream`
      Closes the stream. Attempts to access a stream that has been closed may result in `IOException`s or incorrect behavior. Calling this method may allow classes implementing this interface to release resources associated with the stream such as memory, disk space, or file descriptors.
      Specified by:
        `close` in interface `Closeable`
      Specified by:
        `close` in interface `AutoCloseable`
      Specified by:
        `close` in interface `ImageInputStream`
      Overrides:
        `close` in class `ImageInputStreamImpl`
      Throws:
        `IOException` - if an I/O error occurs.

    - #### finalize

          protected void finalize()
                           throws Throwable

      Finalizes this object prior to garbage collection. The `close` method is called to close any open input source. This method should not be called from application code.
      Overrides:
        `finalize` in class `ImageInputStreamImpl`
      Throws:
        `Throwable` - if an error occurs during superclass finalization.
