Methods

 Initialize this stream.
 @param aStream 
        The underlying stream to read from.
 @param aCharset
        The character encoding to use for converting the bytes of the
        stream. A null charset will be interpreted as UTF-8.
 @param aBufferSize
        How many bytes to buffer.
 @param aReplacementChar
        The character to replace unknown byte sequences in the stream
        with. The standard replacement character is U+FFFD.
        A value of 0x0000 will cause an exception to be thrown if unknown
        byte sequences are encountered in the stream.
