This class is an InputStream that implements one half of a pipe and is useful for communication between threads. A PipedInputStream must be connected to a PipedOutputStream object, which may be specified when the PipedInputStream is created or with the connect( ) method. Data read from a PipedInputStream object is received from the PipedOutputStream to which it is connected. See InputStream for information on the low-level methods for reading data from a PipedInputStream . A FilterInputStream can provide a higher-level interface for reading data from a PipedInputStream .
