> BZip2CompressorInputStream,init() will throw an IOException, if the passed stream returns 0 for available():
> {code:title=BZip2CompressorInputStream.java|borderStyle=solid}
>     private void init() throws IOException {
>         ...
>         if (in.available() == 0) {
>             throw new IOException("Empty InputStream");
>         }
>         ...
>      }
> {code} 
> I think this is not correct, because the underlying stream may indeed be able to only return 0 bytes without blocking but may be able to block a little and then return some more bytes.
> Note also the change in the API documentation from: "Returns the number of bytes that can be read " (1.4.2) to "Returns an estimate of the number of bytes that can be read".
