public abstract class InputStream
extends InputStream

InputStream is the Java API for reading IDL types from CDR marshal streams. These methods are used by the ORB to unmarshal IDL types as well as to extract IDL types out of Anys. The _array versions of the methods can be directly used to read sequences and arrays of IDL types.
