## org.apache.lucene.util.packed
Class PackedDataInput

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.lucene.util.packed.PackedDataInput

    public final class PackedDataInput

extends Object

A `DataInput` wrapper to read unaligned, variable-length packed integers. This API is much slower than the `PackedInts` fixed-length API but can be convenient to save space.

See Also:
  `PackedDataOutput`
NOTE: This API is for internal purposes only and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.

Constructor Summary
`PackedDataInput(DataInput in)` Create a new instance that wraps `in`.

Method Summary
`long` | `readLong(int bitsPerValue)` Read the next long using exactly `bitsPerValue` bits.
`void` | `skipToNextByte()` If there are pending bits (at most 7), they will be ignored and the next value will be read starting at the next byte.

Methods inherited from class java.lang.Object
