Interface BitWriter

All Known Implementing Classes:

BitOutputStream

public interface BitWriter

A bitwriter is a an interface that allows for doing output at the bit level. Most IO interfaces only allow for writing at the byte level or higher.

Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
long	nrBits() Returns the number of bits that have been written to this bitwriter.
void	one() Write a 1 bit.
void	pad(int factor) Pad the rest of the block with zeros and flush.
void	write(int bits, int width) Write some bits.
void	zero() Write a 0 bit.

Method Detail

nrBits

long nrBits()

Returns the number of bits that have been written to this bitwriter.

one

void one()
         throws IOException

Write a 1 bit.

Throws:

IOException

pad

void pad(int factor)
         throws IOException

Pad the rest of the block with zeros and flush.

Parameters:

factor - The size in bits of the block to pad. This will typically be 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, etc.

Throws:

IOException

write

void write(int bits,
         int width)
           throws IOException

Write some bits. Up to 32 bits can be written at a time.

Parameters:

bits - The bits to be written.

width - The number of bits to write. (0..32)

Throws:

IOException

zero

void zero()
          throws IOException

Write a 0 bit.

Throws:

IOException
