| Package | Description | 
|---|---|
| java.io | Provides for system input and output through data streams,
serialization and the file system. | 
| java.security | Provides the classes and interfaces for the security framework. | 
| java.util.jar | Provides classes for reading and writing the JAR (Java ARchive) file
format, which is based on the standard ZIP file format with an
optional manifest file. | 
| java.util.zip | Provides classes for reading and writing the standard ZIP and GZIP
file formats. | 
| javax.crypto | Provides the classes and interfaces for cryptographic operations. | 
| javax.swing | Provides a set of "lightweight"
(all-Java language) components that,
to the maximum degree possible, work the same on all platforms. | 
| Modifier and Type | Class and Description | 
|---|---|
| class  | BufferedInputStreamA  BufferedInputStreamadds
 functionality to another input stream-namely,
 the ability to buffer the input and to
 support themarkandresetmethods. | 
| class  | DataInputStreamA data input stream lets an application read primitive Java data
 types from an underlying input stream in a machine-independent
 way. | 
| class  | LineNumberInputStreamDeprecated. 
 This class incorrectly assumes that bytes adequately represent
             characters.  As of JDK 1.1, the preferred way to operate on
             character streams is via the new character-stream classes, which
             include a class for counting line numbers. | 
| class  | PushbackInputStreamA  PushbackInputStreamadds
 functionality to another input stream, namely
 the  ability to "push back" or "unread"
 one byte. | 
| Modifier and Type | Class and Description | 
|---|---|
| class  | DigestInputStreamA transparent stream that updates the associated message digest using
 the bits going through the stream. | 
| Modifier and Type | Class and Description | 
|---|---|
| class  | JarInputStreamThe  JarInputStreamclass is used to read the contents of
 a JAR file from any input stream. | 
| Modifier and Type | Class and Description | 
|---|---|
| class  | CheckedInputStreamAn input stream that also maintains a checksum of the data being read. | 
| class  | DeflaterInputStreamImplements an input stream filter for compressing data in the "deflate"
 compression format. | 
| class  | GZIPInputStreamThis class implements a stream filter for reading compressed data in
 the GZIP file format. | 
| class  | InflaterInputStreamThis class implements a stream filter for uncompressing data in the
 "deflate" compression format. | 
| class  | ZipInputStreamThis class implements an input stream filter for reading files in the
 ZIP file format. | 
| Modifier and Type | Class and Description | 
|---|---|
| class  | CipherInputStreamA CipherInputStream is composed of an InputStream and a Cipher so
 that read() methods return data that are read in from the
 underlying InputStream but have been additionally processed by the
 Cipher. | 
| Modifier and Type | Class and Description | 
|---|---|
| class  | ProgressMonitorInputStreamMonitors the progress of reading from some InputStream. |
