- - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### public LineColumnReader(Reader reader)

      Constructor wrapping a `Reader` (`FileReader`, `FileReader`, `InputStreamReader`, etc.)

      Parameters:
        `reader` - the reader to wrap

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### @Override
      public void close()

      Closes the stream and releases any system resources associated with it. Once the stream has been closed, further read(), ready(), mark(), reset(), or skip() invocations will throw an IOException. Closing a previously closed stream has no effect.

    - #### public long getColumn()

    - #### public long getColumnMark()

    - #### public long getLine()

    - #### public long getLineMark()

    - #### @Override
      public void mark(int readAheadLimit)

      Marks the present position in the stream. Subsequent calls to reset() will attempt to reposition the stream to this point.

      Parameters:
        `readAheadLimit` - Limit on the number of characters that may be read while still preserving the mark. An attempt to reset the stream after reading characters up to this limit or beyond may fail. A limit value larger than the size of the input buffer will cause a new buffer to be allocated whose size is no smaller than limit. Therefore large values should be used with care.

    - #### @Override
      public int read()

      Reads a single character.

      Returns:
        The character read, as an integer in the range 0 to 65535 (0x00-0xffff), or -1 if the end of the stream has been reached

    - #### @Override
      public int read(char[] chars, int startOffset, int length)

      Reads characters into a portion of an array.

      Parameters:
        `chars` - Destination array of char
        `startOffset` - Offset at which to start storing characters
        `length` - Maximum number of characters to read
      Returns:
        an exception if an error occurs

    - #### @Override
      public int read(char[] chars)

      Reads characters into an array. This method will block until some input is available, an I/O error occurs, or the end of the stream is reached.

      Parameters:
        `chars` - Destination buffer
      Returns:
        The number of characters read, or -1 if the end of the stream has been reached

    - #### @Override
      public int read(CharBuffer buffer)

      Not implemented.

      throws:
        UnsupportedOperationException as the method is not implemented
      Parameters:
        `buffer` - Destination buffer
      Returns:
        The number of characters read, or -1 if the end of the stream has been reached

    - #### @Override
      public String readLine()

      Reads a line of text. A line is considered to be terminated by any one of a line feed ('\n'), a carriage return ('\r'), or a carriage return followed immediately by a linefeed.

      Returns:
        A String containing the contents of the line, not including any line-termination characters, or null if the end of the stream has been reached

    - #### @Override
      public void reset()

      Resets the stream to the most recent mark.

    - #### public void setColumn(long column)

    - #### public void setColumnMark(long columnMark)

    - #### public void setLine(long line)

    - #### public void setLineMark(long lineMark)

    - #### @Override
      public long skip(long toSkip)

      Skips characters.

      Parameters:
        `toSkip` - the number of characters to skip
      Returns:
        The number of characters actually skipped
