- public class DataOutputStream
- extends FilterOutputStream
- implements DataOutput
A data input stream lets an application write primitive Java data
types to an output stream in a portable way. An application can
then use a data input stream to read the data back in.
- See Also:
- DataInputStream
-

- The number of bytes written to the data output stream.
-
DataOutputStream(OutputStream)

underlying output stream.
-

- Flushes this data output stream.
-
size()
- Returns the number of bytes written to this data output stream.
-

- Writes a string to the underlying output stream using UTF-8
encoding in a machine-independent manner.
written
protected int written
- The number of bytes written to the data output stream.
DataOutputStream
public DataOutputStream(OutputStream out)
- Creates a new data output stream to write data to the specified
underlying output stream.
- Parameters:
- out - the underlying output stream.
- See Also:
- out
write
public synchronized void write(int b) throws IOException
- Writes the specified byte to the underlying output stream.
- Parameters:
- b - the
byte
to be written.
- Throws: IOException
- if an I/O error occurs.
- Overrides:
- write in class FilterOutputStream
- See Also:
- out
write
public synchronized void write(byte b[],
int off,
int len) throws IOException
- Writes
len
bytes from the specified byte array
starting at offset off
to the underlying output stream.
- Parameters:
- b - the data.
- off - the start offset in the data.
- len - the number of bytes to write.
- Throws: IOException
- if an I/O error occurs.
- Overrides:
- write in class FilterOutputStream
- See Also:
- out
flush
public void flush() throws IOException
- Flushes this data output stream. This forces any buffered output
bytes to be written out to the stream.
The flush
method of DataOuputStream
calls the flush
method of its underlying output stream.
- Throws: IOException
- if an I/O error occurs.
- Overrides:
- flush in class FilterOutputStream
- See Also:
- out, flush
writeBoolean
public final void writeBoolean(boolean v) throws IOException
- Writes a
boolean
to the underlying output stream as
a 1-byte value. The value true
is written out as the
value (byte)1
; the value false
is
written out as the value (byte)0
.
- Parameters:
- v - a
boolean
value to be written.
- Throws: IOException
- if an I/O error occurs.
- See Also:
- out
writeByte
public final void writeByte(int v) throws IOException
- Writes out a
byte
to the underlying output stream as
a 1-byte value.
- Parameters:
- v - a
byte
value to be written.
- Throws: IOException
- if an I/O error occurs.
- See Also:
- out
writeShort
public final void writeShort(int v) throws IOException
- Writes a
short
to the underlying output stream as two
bytes, high byte first.
- Parameters:
- v - a
short
to be written.
- Throws: IOException
- if an I/O error occurs.
- See Also:
- out
writeChar
public final void writeChar(int v) throws IOException
- Writes a
char
to the underlying output stream as a
2-byte value, high byte first.
- Parameters:
- v - a
char
value to be written.
- Throws: IOException
- if an I/O error occurs.
- See Also:
- out
writeInt
public final void writeInt(int v) throws IOException
- Writes an
int
to the underlying output stream as four
bytes, high byte first.
- Parameters:
- v - an
int
to be written.
- Throws: IOException
- if an I/O error occurs.
- See Also:
- out
writeLong
public final void writeLong(long v) throws IOException
- Writes a
long
to the underlying output stream as eight
bytes, high byte first.
- Parameters:
- v - a
long
to be written.
- Throws: IOException
- if an I/O error occurs.
- See Also:
- out
writeFloat
public final void writeFloat(float v) throws IOException
- Converts the float argument to an
int
using the
floatToIntBits
method in class Float
,
and then writes that int
value to the underlying

- Parameters:
- v - a
float
value to be written.

- if an I/O error occurs.
- See Also:
- out, floatToIntBits
writeDouble
public final void writeDouble(double v) throws IOException
- Converts the double argument to a
long
using the
doubleToLongBits
method in class Double
,
and then writes that long
value to the underlying
output stream as an 8-byte quantity, high byte first.
- Parameters:
- v - a
double
value to be written.
- Throws: IOException
- if an I/O error occurs.
- See Also:
- out, doubleToLongBits
writeBytes
public final void writeBytes(String s) throws IOException
- Writes out the string to the underlying output stream as a
sequence of bytes. Each character in the string is written out, in
sequence, by discarding its high eight bits.
- Parameters:
- s - a string of bytes to be written.
- Throws: IOException
- if an I/O error occurs.
- See Also:
- out
writeChars
public final void writeChars(String s) throws IOException
- Writes a string to the underlying output stream as a sequence of
characters. Each character is written to the data output stream as
if by the
writeChar
method.
- Parameters:
- s - a
String
value to be written.
- Throws: IOException
- if an I/O error occurs.
- See Also:
- writeChar, out
writeUTF
public final void writeUTF(String str) throws IOException
- Writes a string to the underlying output stream using UTF-8
encoding in a machine-independent manner.
First, two bytes are written to the output stream as if by the
writeShort
method giving the number of bytes to
follow. This value is the number of bytes actually written out,
not the length of the string. Following the length, each character
of the string is output, in sequence, using the UTF-8 encoding
for the character.
- Parameters:
- str - a string to be written.
- Throws: IOException
- if an I/O error occurs.
size
public final int size()
- Returns the number of bytes written to this data output stream.
- Returns:
- the value of the
written
field.
- See Also:
- written
