public abstract class AbstractByteArrayOutputStream
extends OutputStream

This is the base class for implementing an output stream in which the data is written into a byte array. The buffer automatically grows as data is written to it.

The data can be retrieved using toByteArray() and toString(). Closing an AbstractByteArrayOutputStream has no effect. The methods in this class can be called after the stream has been closed without generating an IOException.

This is the base for an alternative implementation of the ByteArrayOutputStream class. The original implementation only allocates 32 bytes at the beginning. As this class is designed for heavy duty it starts at bytes. In contrast to the original it doesn't reallocate the whole memory block but allocates additional buffers. This way no buffers need to be garbage collected and the contents don't have to be copied to the new buffer. This class is designed to behave exactly like the original. The only exception is the deprecated ByteArrayOutputStream.toString(int) method that has been ignored.

2.7

Method Detail

needNewBuffer

protected void needNewBuffer(int newcount)

Makes a new buffer available either by allocating a new one or re-cycling an existing one.

Parameters:

newcount - the size of the buffer if one is created

write

public abstract void write(byte[] b,
                           int off,
                           int len)

Writes the bytes to the byte array.

Overrides:

write in class OutputStream

Parameters:

b - the bytes to write

off - The start offset

len - The number of bytes to write

writeImpl

protected void writeImpl(byte[] b,
                         int off,
                         int len)

Writes the bytes to the byte array.

Parameters:

b - the bytes to write

off - The start offset

len - The number of bytes to write

write

public abstract void write(int b)

Write a byte to byte array.

Specified by:

write in class OutputStream

Parameters:

b - the byte to write

writeImpl

protected void writeImpl(int b)

Write a byte to byte array.

Parameters:

b - the byte to write

write

public abstract int write(InputStream in)
                   throws IOException

Writes the entire contents of the specified input stream to this byte stream. Bytes from the input stream are read directly into the internal buffers of this streams.

Parameters:

in - the input stream to read from

Returns:

total number of bytes read from the input stream (and written to this stream)

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs while reading the input stream

Since:

1.4

writeImpl

protected int writeImpl(InputStream in)
                 throws IOException

Writes the entire contents of the specified input stream to this byte stream. Bytes from the input stream are read directly into the internal buffers of this streams.

Parameters:

in - the input stream to read from

Returns:

total number of bytes read from the input stream (and written to this stream)

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs while reading the input stream

Since:

2.7

size

public abstract int size()

Returns the current size of the byte array.

Returns:

the current size of the byte array

close

public void close()
           throws IOException

Closing a ByteArrayOutputStream has no effect. The methods in this class can be called after the stream has been closed without generating an IOException.

Specified by:

close in interface Closeable

Specified by:

close in interface AutoCloseable

Overrides:

close in class OutputStream

Throws:

IOException - never (this method should not declare this exception but it has to now due to backwards compatibility)

ByteArrayOutputStream.reset()

writeTo
