> HttpRandomAccesContent.getDataInputStream() ignores result of skip()
> Findbugs says:
> This method ignores the return value of java.io.InputStream.skip() which can
> skip multiple bytes. If the return value is not checked, the caller will not
> be able to correctly handle the case where fewer bytes were skipped than the
> caller requested. This is a particularly insidious kind of bug, because in
> many programs, skips from input streams usually do skip the full amount of
> data requested, causing the program to fail only sporadically. With Buffered
> streams, however, skip() will only skip data in the buffer, and will
> routinely fail to skip the requested number of bytes.
