    public class KeepAliveInputStream

extends java.io.FilterInputStream

Class that can be used to wrap `System.in` without getting anxious about any client closing the stream.

In code-language it means that it is not necessary to do:

     if (out != System.in) {
       in.close();
     }

Since:
  Ant 1.6
