public static final int BUFFER_SIZE

The buffer size for arrays of byte and character.

Method Detail

writeTo

public static void writeTo(InputStream in,
                           OutputStream out)
                    throws IOException

Read bytes from an input stream and write them to an output stream.

Parameters:

in - the input stream to read from.

out - the output stream to write to.

Throws:

IOException - if there is an error reading or writing bytes.

writeTo

public static void writeTo(Reader in,
                           Writer out)
                    throws IOException

Read characters from an input stream and write them to an output stream.

Parameters:

in - the reader to read from.

out - the writer to write to.

Throws:

IOException - if there is an error reading or writing characters.

getCharset

public static Charset getCharset(MediaType m)

Get the character set from a media type.

The character set is obtained from the media type parameter "charset". If the parameter is not present the UTF8 charset is utilized.

Parameters:

m - the media type.

Returns:

the character set.

readFromAsString

public static String readFromAsString(InputStream in,
                                      MediaType type)
                               throws IOException

Read the bytes of an input stream and convert to a string.

Parameters:

in - the input stream to read from.

type - the media type that determines the character set defining how to decode bytes to characters.

Returns:

the string.

Throws:

IOException - if there is an error reading from the input stream.

readFromAsString

public static String readFromAsString(Reader reader)
                               throws IOException

Read the characters of a reader and convert to a string.

Parameters:

reader - the reader

Returns:

the string

Throws:

IOException - if there is an error reading from the reader.

writeToAsString

public static void writeToAsString(String s,
                                   OutputStream out,
                                   MediaType type)
                            throws IOException

Convert a string to bytes and write those bytes to an output stream.

Parameters:

s - the string to convert to bytes.

out - the output stream to write to.

type - the media type that determines the character set defining how to decode bytes to characters.

Throws:

IOException - in case of a write failure.

safelyClose

public static void safelyClose(Closeable closeable)

Safely close a closeable, without throwing an exception.

Parameters:

closeable - object to be closed.
