Reads bytes from the given input and puts then into the argument buffer.

This method will efficiently handle the case when the buffer is an instance of ByteArrayRegion, and read directly into the backing array.

In other cases it will allocate a work buffer that will serve as a temporary work memory region. It will be lated put into the argument buffer via ByteRegion.put(int, ByteArrayRegion).

This method is the same as readReadableCharSequenceFully(Readable), but calls CharSequence.toString() on the result.

Reads exactly the specified number of bytes from the given input or throws an EOFException if failed.

Warning: If the argument input is capable of blocking, this method may never return unless external intervention is made. If less than count bytes are available when this method is called, the reading will block, until either more bytes, or no more are available.

E.g. in case of a network TCP stream, if one wants to read 10 bytes, and only 5 is available right now, this method will block, until the other endpoint of the connection sends 5 more bytes, or the connection is closed.

Skips the specified number of bytes from the input by reading the given number of bytes from it.

This method will always read the bytes from the input, and never calls ByteSource.skip(long).

If the number of bytes to skip is zero or negative, this method will always succeed and return 0.

Skips the argument number of bytes from the given input, throwing an EOFException if the operation fails.

This method will try to skip the given number amount of bytes. It will first try to use the ByteSource.skip(long) method.
