how to convert InputStrea object into String..

[pjerald]

Input Stream object has a read method which returns an int...
Ant how can convert it into String ?

If you have an int in a variable called, say, myInt, then
[CODE=java]String s = "" + myInt;[/CODE]

I actually have a method which returns InputStream object. See..

[CODE=java]
is = someMethodWhich ReturnsInputStr eam();
br= new BufferedReader( new InputStreamRead er(is));
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
String str;
while((str = br.readLine()) != null)
{
sb.append(str);
}
System.err.prin tln("test : String Bufffer=="+sb);
String htmlContent = sb.toString();
[/CODE]

htmlContent is my need...


I have done it.. But Still i have struggled a lot.. I searched in the google and read api s..


Consider this code snippet..

is = someMethodWhichReturnsInputStream();
BufferedInputStream bis = new StringBufferInputStream(is);
int c;
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer();
while((c=bis.read())!=-1)
{
sb.append(c);
}
htmlContent = sb;

Now See this method gives me something like this 132456789099765 23532743843


Is there any easy way to convert a InputStream into a String object ?

I am actually have difficulties with java.io package..
Do you friends understand what i am trying to say..

Thanks,

Are you reading character data or binary data?
What output were you expecting instead of the one that you got?

Actually i am reading a file.
The first method gives me the desired output.. The String object.
But the second one gives me some integer string.

Is your file a binary file or a character file? i.e Does your file contain human readable characters only?

Yes, my file contains only characters...

See my another try... this actually another program.
[CODE=java]
1 package test;
2
3 import java.io.FileRea der;
4 import java.io.FileInp utStream;
5
6 class MyFileReader{
7 public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception{
8 FileReader fr = null;
9 System.err.prin tln("test : -------------------------------");
10 try{
11 fr = new FileReader("rea dme.txt");
12 while(fr.read() != -1)
13 {
14 System.err.prin t("test : str =="+fr.read() );
15 }
16 }
17 catch(Exception e)
18 {
19 System.err.prin tln("test : Unable to open file.."+e.getMe ssage());
20 e.printStackTra ce();
21 }
22 finally
23 {
24 fr.close();
25 }
26 }
27 }

[/CODE]



This gives me output like this..


[$ ~]$ javac MyFileReader.ja va -d .; java test.MyFileRead er
test : -------------------------------
test : str ==105test : str ==106test : str ==114test : str ==108test : str ==10test : str ==105test : str ==106test : str ==114test : str ==108test : str ==10test : str ==105test : str ==106test : str ==114test : str ==108test : str ==10test : str ==105test : str ==106test : str ==114test : str ==108test : str ==10test : str ==105test : str ==106test : str ==114test : str [$ ~]$ st : str ==10[$ ~]$

FileReader wrapped in a BufferedReader is the way to go here.
Read this article and try the code again.

You can use the Scanner class to read in files, too.
