readLineStrict

fun Source.readLineStrict(limit: Long = Long.MAX_VALUE): String(source)

Removes and returns UTF-8 encoded characters up to but not including the next line break, throwing EOFException if a line break was not encountered. A line break is either "\n" or "\r\n"; these characters are not included in the result.

The returned string will have at most limit UTF-8 bytes, and the maximum number of bytes scanned is limit + 2. If limit == 0 this will always throw an EOFException because no bytes will be scanned.

No bytes are discarded if the match fails.

Parameters

limit

the maximum UTF-8 bytes constituting a returned string.

Throws

when the source does not contain a string consisting with at most limit bytes followed by line break characters.

when the source is closed.
