A data input stream lets an application read primitive Java data types from an underlying input stream in a machine-independent way. An application uses a data output stream to write data that can later be read by a data input stream.
Data input streams and data output streams represent Unicode strings in a format that is a slight modification of UTF-8. (For more information, see X/Open Company Ltd., "File System Safe UCS Transformation Format (FSS_UTF)", X/Open Preliminary Specification, Document Number: P316. This information also appears in ISO/IEC 10646, Annex P.) Note that in the following tables, the most significant bit appears in the far left-hand column.
All characters in the range '\u0001'
to
'\u007F'
are represented by a single byte:
0 | bits 6-0 |
The null character '\u0000'
and characters in the
range '\u0080'
to '\u07FF'
are
represented by a pair of bytes:
1 | 1 | 0 | bits 10-6 |
1 | 0 | bits 5-0 |
'\u0800'
to
'\uFFFF'
are represented by three bytes:
1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | bits 15-12 |
1 | 0 | bits 11-6 | ||
1 | 0 | bits 5-0 |
The two differences between this format and the "standard" UTF-8 format are the following:
'\u0000'
is encoded in 2-byte format
rather than 1-byte, so that the encoded strings never have
embedded nulls.

Deprecated. This method does not properly convert bytes to characters. As of JDK 1.1, the preferred way to read lines of text is via the BufferedReader.readLine() method. Programs that use the
DataInputStream class to read lines can be converted to use
the BufferedReader class by replacing code of the form:
with:DataInputStream d = new DataInputStream(in); BufferedReader d = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in)); |

public final int read(byte[] b) throws IOException
b
. The number of
bytes actually read is returned as an integer. This method blocks
until input data is available, end of file is detected, or an
exception is thrown.
If b
is null, a NullPointerException
is
thrown. If the length of b
is zero, then no bytes are
read and 0
is returned; otherwise, there is an attempt
to read at least one byte. If no byte is available because the
stream is at end of file, the value -1
is returned;
otherwise, at least one byte is read and stored into b
.
The first byte read is stored into element b[0]
, the
next one into b[1]
, and so on. The number of bytes read
is, at most, equal to the length of b
. Let k
be the number of bytes actually read; these bytes will be stored in
elements b[0]
through b[k-1]
, leaving
elements b[k]
through b[b.length-1]
unaffected.
If the first byte cannot be read for any reason other than end of
file, then an IOException
is thrown. In particular, an
IOException
is thrown if the input stream has been closed.
The read(b)
method has the same effect as:
read(b, 0, b.length)
read
in class FilterInputStream
b
- the buffer into which the data is read.
-1
if there is no more data because the end
of the stream has been reached.

,
InputStream.read(byte[], int, int)
public final int read(byte[] b, int off, int len) throws IOException
len
bytes of data from the contained
input stream into an array of bytes. An attempt is made to read
as many as len
bytes, but a smaller number may be read,
possibly zero. The number of bytes actually read is returned as an
integer.
This method blocks until input data is available, end of file is detected, or an exception is thrown.
If b
is null
, a
NullPointerException
is thrown.
If off
is negative, or len
is negative, or
off+len
is greater than the length of the array
b
, then an IndexOutOfBoundsException
is
thrown.
If len
is zero, then no bytes are read and
0
is returned; otherwise, there is an attempt to read at
least one byte. If no byte is available because the stream is at end of
file, the value -1
is returned; otherwise, at least one
byte is read and stored into b
.
The first byte read is stored into element b[off]
, the
next one into b[off+1]
, and so on. The number of bytes read
is, at most, equal to len
. Let k be the number of
bytes actually read; these bytes will be stored in elements
b[off]
through b[off+
k-1]
,
leaving elements b[off+
k]
through
b[off+len-1]
unaffected.
In every case, elements b[0]
through
b[off]
and elements b[off+len]
through
b[b.length-1]
are unaffected.
If the first byte cannot be read for any reason other than end of
file, then an IOException
is thrown. In particular, an
IOException
is thrown if the input stream has been closed.
