[Juglist] documentation for java.net.SocketInputStream

[Richard O. Hammer]

I gather there is a class java.net.SocketInputStream, since that is 
the type I find returned by Socket.getInputStream().  I'd like to know 
more about this class, but it is not mentioned in the java.net 
Javadoc.  I am surprised to learn that there are classes in the 
standard packages not mentioned in the Javadoc.

Can anyone tell me if this class is documented somewhere?

I am using java version 1.4.0 on Windows 2000.

Here is the code which tells me of the existence of 
java.net.SocketInputStream.

/* Testing what type of InputStream a Socket gives me.
*/
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
class SocketStreamPeeker{
  public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception{
    Socket so =  new Socket("trijug.org", 80);
    InputStream in = so.getInputStream();
    Class cl = in.getClass();
    System.out.println(cl.getName());
    so.close();
  }
}
