Java.io.BufferedOutputStream Class
Advertisements
Introduction
The Java.io.BufferedOutputStream class implements a buffered output stream. By setting up such an output stream, an application can write bytes to the underlying output stream without necessarily causing a call to the underlying system for each byte written.
Class declaration
Following is the declaration for Java.io.BufferedOutputStream class:
public class BufferedOutputStream extends FilterOutputStream
Field
Following are the fields for Java.io.BufferedOutputStream class:
protected byte[] buf -- This is the internal buffer where data is stored.
protected int count -- This is the number of valid bytes in the buffer.
protected OutputStream out -- This is the underlying output stream to be filtered.
Class constructors
| S.N. | Constructor & Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | BufferedOutputStream(OutputStream out) This creates a new buffered output stream to write data to the specified underlying output stream. |
| 2 | BufferedOutputStream(OutputStream out, int size) This creates a new buffered output stream to write data to the specified underlying output stream with the specified buffer size. |
Class methods
| S.N. | Method & Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | void flush() This method flushes this buffered output stream. |
| 2 | void write(byte[] b, int off, int len) This method writes len bytes from the specified byte array starting at offset off to this buffered output stream. |
| 3 | void write(int b) This method writes the specified byte to this buffered output stream. |
