In a GUI context, SwingWorker may help: let doInBackground() do the reading, use process() for interim reuslts, and done() to wrap up. You can register a PropertyChangeListener to drive a progress indicator. This article expands on the idea, and a back port to Java 1.5 is available. Here's a simple example that reads from a JDBC source instead of a stream, but the idea is the same.
