  Get the current key

  Returns:
    the current key or null if there is no current key
  Throws:
    `IOException`
    `InterruptedException`

### getCurrentValue

    public abstract VALUEIN getCurrentValue()
                                     throws IOException,
                                            InterruptedException

  Throws:
    `IOException`
    `InterruptedException`

### getProgress

    public abstract float getProgress()
                               throws IOException,
                                      InterruptedException

  The current progress of the record reader through its data.

  Returns:
    a number between 0.0 and 1.0 that is the fraction of the data read
  Throws:
    `IOException`
    `InterruptedException`

### close

    public abstract void close()
                        throws IOException
