public interface Decoder
Interface for decoders. A Decoder may be used with a DecoderStream, to perform on-the-fly decoding from an InputStream.

Important note: Decoder implementations are typically not synchronized.

      int decode(InputStream stream, ByteBuffer buffer) throws IOException
      Decodes up to buffer.length bytes from the given input stream, into the given buffer.
      Parameters:
      stream - the input stream to decode data from
      buffer - buffer to store the read data
      Returns:
      the total number of bytes read into the buffer, or 0 if there is no more data because the end of the stream has been reached.
      Throws:
      DecodeException - if encoded data is corrupt.
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
      EOFException - if a premature end-of-file is encountered.
      NullPointerException - if either argument is null.
