len
bytes of data from the 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. 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.
The read(b,
off,
len)
method for class InputStream
simply calls the method read()
repeatedly. If the first such call results in an IOException
, that exception is returned from the call to the read(b,
off,
len)
method. If any subsequent call to read()
results in a IOException
, the exception is caught and treated as if it were end of file; the bytes read up to that point are stored into b
and the number of bytes read before the exception occurred is returned. Subclasses are encouraged to provide a more efficient implementation of this method.
