Java ByteArrayInputStream Class
The byte array input stream creates a byte array buffer in memory, and the data read from the input stream is stored in this byte array buffer. There are several ways to create a byte array input stream object.
Create by accepting a byte array as a parameter:
ByteArrayInputStream bArray = new ByteArrayInputStream(byte [] a);
Another way to create it is to accept a byte array and two integer variables, off and len, where off represents the first byte to be read and len represents the length of bytes to be read.
ByteArrayInputStream bArray = new ByteArrayInputStream(byte []a,
int off,
int len)
After successfully creating a byte array input stream object, you can refer to the methods in the following list to perform read operations or other operations on the stream.
| No. | Method Description |
|---|---|
| 1 |
public int read() Reads the next data byte from this input stream. |
| 2 |
public int read(byte[] r, int off, int len) Reads up to lendata bytes from this input stream into a byte array. |
| 3 |
public int available() Returns the number of bytes that can be read from this input stream without blocking. |
| 4 |
public void mark(int read) Sets the current marked position in the stream. |
| 5 |
public long skip(long n) Skips over ninput bytes from this input stream. |
Example
The following example demonstrates the use of ByteArrayInputStream and ByteArrayOutputStream:
import java.io.*;
public class ByteStreamTest {
public static void main(String args[])throws IOException {
ByteArrayOutputStream bOutput = new ByteArrayOutputStream(12);
while( bOutput.size()!= 10 ) {
// 获取用户输入值
bOutput.write(System.in.read());
}
byte b [] = bOutput.toByteArray();
System.out.println("Print the content");
for(int x= 0 ; x < b.length; x++) {
// 打印字符
System.out.print((char)b[x] + " ");
}
System.out.println(" ");
int c;
ByteArrayInputStream bInput = new ByteArrayInputStream(b);
System.out.println("Converting characters to Upper case " );
for(int y = 0 ; y < 1; y++ ) {
while(( c= bInput.read())!= -1) {
System.out.println(Character.toUpperCase((char)c));
}
bInput.reset();
}
}
}
The output of the above example is as follows:
asdfghjkly Print the content a s d f g h j k l y Converting characters to Upper case A S D F G H J K L Y
