Java - Bytearrayoutputstream: SN Methods With Desc Ription Public Void Reset

The ByteArrayOutputStream class allows writing output to a byte array buffer rather than a file or network connection. It provides methods to write bytes to the buffer, retrieve the contents as a byte array or string, and reset the stream. Constructors allow setting the initial buffer size. Example code demonstrates using ByteArrayOutputStream to read input, convert it to uppercase, and print the results.

JAVA - BYTEARRAYOUTPUTSTREAM

http://www.tuto rialspo int.co m/java/java_byte arrayo utputstre am.htm Co pyrig ht © tuto rials po int.co m

T he ByteArrayOutputStream class stream creates a buffer in memory and all the data sent to the stream is stored
in the buffer. T here are following forms of constructors to create ByteArrayOutputStream objects

Following constructor creates a buffer of 32 byte:

OutputStream bOut = new ByteArrayOutputStream()

Following constructor creates a buffer of size int a:

OutputStream bOut = new ByteArrayOutputStream(int a)

Once you have ByteArrayOutputStream object in hand then there is a list of helper methods which can be used
to write the stream or to do other operations on the stream.

SN Methods with Desc ription

1 public void reset()


T his method resets the number of valid bytes of the byte array output stream to zero, so all the
accumulated output in the stream will be discarded.

2 public byte[] toByteArray()


T his method creates a newly allocated Byte array. Its size would be the current size of the output
stream and the contents of the buffer will be copied into it. Returns the current contents of the output
stream as a byte array.

3 public String toString ()


Converts the buffer content into a string . T ranslation will be done according to the default character
encoding . Returns the String translated from the buffer's content.

4 public void write(int w)


Writes the specified array to the output stream.

5 public void write(byte []b, int of, int len)


Writes len number of bytes starting from offset off to the stream.

6 public void writeT o(O utputStream outSt)


Writes the entire content of this Stream to the specified stream arg ument.

Example:
Following is the example to demonstrate ByteArrayOutputStream 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 ) {
// Gets the inputs from the user
bOutput.write(System.in.read());
}

byte b [] = bOutput.toByteArray();
System.out.println("Print the content");
for(int x= 0 ; x < b.length; x++) {
//printing the characters
System.out.print((char)b[x] + " ");
}
System.out.println(" ");

int c;

ByteArrayOutputStream bInput = new ByteArrayOutputStream(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();
}
}
}

Here is the sample run of the above prog ram:
