Effective in 2026, to align with our trunk stable development model and ensure platform stability for the ecosystem, we will publish source code to AOSP in Q2 and Q4. For building and contributing to AOSP, use android-latest-release. The android-latest-release manifest branch will always reference the most recent release pushed to AOSP. For more information, see Changes to AOSP.

SparseImageUtil.SparseInputStream

public static class SparseImageUtil.SparseInputStream
extends InputStream

java.lang.Object
↳	java.io.InputStream
	↳	com.android.tradefed.util.SparseImageUtil.SparseInputStream

SparseInputStream read from upstream and detects the data format. If the upstream is a valid sparse data, it will unsparse it on the fly. Otherwise, it just passthrough as is.

Summary

Public constructors
`SparseInputStream(BufferedInputStream in, long originalSize)`

Public methods
`void`	`close()`
`boolean`	`isSparse()`
`int`	`read()`
`int`	`read(byte[] buf, int off, int len)`
`long`	`size()` Return the total number of bytes in the unsparsed image.
