DataInputStream.readLong() has the following syntax.
public final long readLong() throws IOException
In the following code shows how to use DataInputStream.readLong() method.
//from w w w . jav a 2s . c o m import java.io.DataInputStream; import java.io.DataOutputStream; import java.io.FileInputStream; import java.io.FileOutputStream; import java.io.IOException; import java.io.InputStream; public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException { long[] l = { 1234567898765L, 12345678909876L }; FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("c:\\test.txt"); DataOutputStream dos = new DataOutputStream(fos); for (long j : l) { dos.writeLong(j); } dos.flush(); InputStream is = new FileInputStream("c:\\test.txt"); DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(is); while (dis.available() > 0) { long k = dis.readLong(); System.out.print(k); } } }
