# Class SkipShieldingInputStream

java.lang.Object
java.io.InputStream
java.io.FilterInputStream
org.apache.commons.compress.utils.SkipShieldingInputStream

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `Closeable`, `AutoCloseable`

@Deprecated public class SkipShieldingInputStream extends FilterInputStream
Deprecated.
No longer used.
A wrapper that overwrites `skip(long)` and delegates to `FilterInputStream.read()` instead.

Some implementations of `InputStream` implement `InputStream.skip(long)` in a way that throws an exception if the stream is not seekable - `System.in` is known to behave that way. For such a stream it is impossible to invoke skip at all and you have to read from the stream (and discard the data read) instead. Skipping is potentially much faster than reading so we do want to invoke `skip` when possible. We provide this class so you can wrap your own `InputStream` in it if you encounter problems with `skip` throwing an exception.
