BufferedInputStream.available

Returns an estimate of the number of bytes that can be read (or skipped over) from this input stream without blocking by the next invocation of a method for this input stream. The next invocation might be the same thread or another thread. A single read or skip of this many bytes will not block, but may read or skip fewer bytes. <p> This method returns the sum of the number of bytes remaining to be read in the buffer (<code>count&nbsp;- pos</code>) and the result of calling the {@link java.io.FilterInputStream#inputStream inputStream}.available().

@return an estimate of the number of bytes that can be read (or skipped over) from this input stream without blocking. @exception IOException if this input stream has been closed by invoking its {@link #close()} method, or an I/O error occurs.
