public class SocketInputStream
extends java.io.FilterInputStream

This class wraps an input stream, storing a reference to its originating socket. When the stream is closed, it will also close the socket immediately afterward. This class is useful for situations where you are dealing with a stream originating from a socket, but do not have a reference to the socket, and want to make sure it closes when the stream closes.
