The RPG runtime locates the method to be called using the signature
derived from your prototype.  Each Java method only has one signature,
derived from the parameters you coded on the method.  So you have to
code your RPG prototype to exactly match the signature of the
constructor.

If a ByteArrayInputStream is valid as an InputStream parameter, passing
a ByteArrayInputStream object to the constructor should work fine.
