Remarks

Returns the unique java.nio.channels.FileChannel FileChannel object associated with this file input stream.

The initial java.nio.channels.FileChannel#position() position of the returned channel will be equal to the number of bytes read from the file so far. Reading bytes from this stream will increment the channel's position. Changing the channel's position, either explicitly or by reading, will change this stream's file position.
