An in_obj_stream extends in_obj_channel by look-ahead methods

The normal input operations work as usual. The window is moved after * every read sequence of bytes by exactly the number of bytes, and * if the window length becomes smaller than the block size, it will * be ensured that the window will be enlarged to the block size (or * to the rest of the stream until EOF, whatever is smaller).

method block_size : int

The block size of the stream

method window : Netbuffer.t

The look-ahead window. The first byte of the window is the byte that * would be read next by input_char. The length of the window is returned * by the method window_length. This length may be smaller than the * current length of the netbuffer, i.e. the netbuffer may contain * additional data that must be ignored.

method want : int -> unit

Increases the length of the window such that the length is at least * the passed number of bytes or that the window reaches EOF (whatever * happens first).

method want_another_block : unit -> unit

The same as: want block_size

method window_length : int

Returns the length of the window

method window_at_eof : bool

Whether the window is at eof

method skip : int -> unit

Skip the n bytes of the stream. It is not an error to skip more bytes * than available in the remaining stream.
