Method Detail

getOutputStream

public java.io.OutputStream getOutputStream()

Description copied from interface: ByteStore

Returns an output stream which can be used to write to the store. May be called multiple times; always returns the same object. Note that this is not in general buffered - it is the responsibility of the user to take steps like wrapping it in a BufferedOutputStream for efficiency if required.

Specified by:

getOutputStream in interface ByteStore

Returns:

data sink stream

copy

public void copy(java.io.OutputStream out)
          throws java.io.IOException

Description copied from interface: ByteStore

Takes all the data written so far into this store's sink stream and copies it to a destination stream. The output stream is not closed.

Specified by:

copy in interface ByteStore

Parameters:

out - data destination stream

Throws:

java.io.IOException

getLength

public long getLength()

Description copied from interface: ByteStore

Returns the number of bytes currently stored in this object.

Specified by:

getLength in interface ByteStore

Returns:

byte count

toByteBuffers

public java.nio.ByteBuffer[] toByteBuffers()

Description copied from interface: ByteStore

Returns an array of byte buffers containing the bytes written to this store. The stored bytes are all of the bytes from the first buffer in the returned array, followed by all in the second, etc. In many cases the returned array will, and probably should, contain a single buffer, but if the written byte count exceeds Integer.MAX_VALUE, more than one will be required. The limit of each buffer indicates the number of bytes it contains.

Usual usage will be to write all data, then call this method once; this model may affect implementation decisions about efficiency.

Specified by:

toByteBuffers in interface ByteStore

Returns:

byte buffer containing bytes written

close

public void close()

Description copied from interface: ByteStore

Tidies up. Should be called when the data in this object is no longer required. This object may no longer be usable following a call to this method.

Specified by:

close in interface java.io.Closeable

Specified by:

close in interface ByteStore

Overrides:

close in class java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream
