2. what is the byte length for different character set in java?    stackoverflow.com

I want to know the different byte length of character set provided by JVM. For example, ASCII, non-acsii char set, chinese characters and so on. Any idea thanks :)

3. Which Class used for writing characters rather than bytes?    stackoverflow.com

4. byte or characters    coderanch.com

"I read from Khalid's book that I/O stream readers/writers create an File I/O stream automatically." 1)My question is that if I/O streams is created then it means that characters are never written to the file as streams are inaware of bytes. 2)what write() method of readers/wriers actually write/read to a file byte or characters? 3)Can an File I/O stream read or ...

5. Difference b/w Character streams and Byte streams    coderanch.com

Hello friends, I think this is the right forum for this question. What is the difference between character and byte streams right from the low level implementation to the high level implementation. what I actually feel is there is only one difference and that is when we use the character streams the data will be read as a character (i.e 16 ...

6. Differnce between bytes and character streams    coderanch.com

Streams read and write bytes without changing them at all. You can read an image or sound file or unknown document type and process the raw bytes or write them back out to another stream. Readers read unicode characters which are (usually? always?) two bytes wide. Google for more on unicode and character encoding - it's a big topic. Readers often ...

8. Byte and character streams    coderanch.com

Now when we read a character stream it is always 2 bytes (transfering two by two or byte-byte?) When we write in a binary stream,no data transformation occurs for example an int is written as 4byte(because that's what it is in ram), a character 2 bytes etc. Also the integer 5 would be stored as 101. Why is 101 and not ...

9. characters in a byte    coderanch.com

Someone asked me following questions and I didn't know the answer If you have to store a ticker, how many characters can you store in a 4 byte integer. I thought that each byte will have 8 bits so the answer would be 32. But apparently that is not correct. She told me the correct answer is 2 raise to the ...





10. Byte vs Character streams    coderanch.com

It will, the only difference is that the loop in CopyBytes will run twice as much, because instead of reading a character at a time, it reads two bytes. A character that can be represented with an integer value lower than 256 will still take 16 bits. 8 bits will just be zeroed out. An InputStreamReader has methods that specialize in ...

11. How a character save in 2 bytes in Java?    coderanch.com

package filetestread; import java.io.*; /** * * @author Administrator */ public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException{ FileInputStream in = null; //FileOutputStream out = null; try { in = new FileInputStream("myfile1.txt"); int c; while ((c = in.read()) != -1) { System.out.print(c+ " "); // out.write(c); } } finally { if (in != null) { in.close(); } // ...

12. Byte vs. Character Streams    java-forums.org

A byte is a byte. Not much lower than that. A character can be more than one byte and so can take some logic to match up its parts to get the whole. Depends what the stream has in it and what you want to get out. What advantage would you get reading a character stream as bytes and then having ...

13. Problem with bytes and characters    java-forums.org

Okay this is a simple problem but it is confusing me. String str = "a"; byte[] bytes = str.getBytes(); Theoretically characters are two bytes each because java uses Unicode. However, the array that I get is of length 1. In other words it only has one byte. Why on earth is it doing this? I want to get two bytes representing ...

15. Byte and Character Streams    forums.oracle.com

Hi I have an insane doubt, wish U can help me Java has two classes (FileInputStream and FileOutputStream) which allow u to read one single byte from a stream or to write One single byte out to a stream. A classic example provided by Sun has a loop which reads one byte at a time and writes it out until there ...

Hello. I am reading now the tutorials on Streams, now i am reading characters stream. http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/io/charstreams.html and it says "in CopyCharacters(the Character stream), the int variable holds a character value in its last 16 bits; in CopyBytes(the Byte stream), the int variable holds a byte value in its last 8 bits." my questions is , whats the different between the values ...

Hi, I am dealing with very big XML files and since I don't need all the information in them, I would like to have random access to the XML elements, to pick the ones I am interested in (without loading/searching the whole document every time). So, I wanted to create a index of the XML file with xpath expressions (from the ...
