public class LineDemarcator
extends AbstractTextDemarcator

A demarcator that scans an InputStream for line endings (carriage returns and new lines) and returns lines of text one-at-a-time. This is similar to BufferedReader but with a very important distinction: while BufferedReader returns the lines of text after stripping off any line endings, this class returns text including the line endings. So, for example, if the following text is provided: ABC\rXYZ\nABCXYZ\r\nhello Then calls to nextLine() will result in 4 String values being returned:

• ABC\r
• XYZ\n
• ABCXYZ\r\n
• hello

All subsequent calls to nextLine() will return null.
