DataInputStream.readUnsignedByte() has the following syntax.
public final int readUnsignedByte() throws IOException
In the following code shows how to use DataInputStream.readUnsignedByte() method.
/*from w w w . j a va 2 s .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 { byte[] b = { -123, 4 }; FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("c:\\test.txt"); DataOutputStream dos = new DataOutputStream(fos); for (byte j : b) { dos.writeByte(j); } dos.flush(); InputStream is = new FileInputStream("c:\\test.txt"); DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(is); while (dis.available() > 0) { int k = dis.readUnsignedByte(); System.out.print(k); } } }
