PipedInputStream.read(byte[] b, int off, int len) has the following syntax.
public int read(byte[] b, int off, int len) throws IOException
In the following code shows how to use PipedInputStream.read(byte[] b, int off, int len) method.
//from w w w. j ava 2 s . com import java.io.PipedInputStream; import java.io.PipedOutputStream; public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { PipedOutputStream out = new PipedOutputStream(); PipedInputStream in = new PipedInputStream(); // connect input and output in.connect(out); // write something out.write(70); out.write(71); // read what we wrote into an array of bytes byte[] b = new byte[2]; in.read(b, 0, 2); System.out.println(new String(b)); in.close(); } }
