The readInt() method of DataInputStream class in Java is used to read four input bytes and returns a integer value. This method reads the next four bytes from the input stream and interprets it into integer type and returns.
Syntax:
public final int readInt() throws IOException
Specified By: This method is specified by readInt() method of DataInput interface.
Parameters: This method does not accept any parameter.
Return value: This method returns the int value interpreted by the next four bytes of the input stream.
Exceptions:
- EOFException – It throws EOFException if the input stream is ended before four bytes can be read.
- IOException – This method throws IOException if the stream is closed or some other I/O error occurs.
Below programs illustrate readInt() method in DataInputStream class in IO package:
Program 1: Assume the existence of file “demo.txt”.
import
java.io.*;
public
class
GFG {
public
static
void
main(String[] args)
throws
IOException
{
int
[] buf = {
10
,
20
,
30
,
40
,
50
};
FileOutputStream outputStream
=
new
FileOutputStream(
"c:\\demo.txt"
);
DataOutputStream dataOutputStr
=
new
DataOutputStream(outputStream);
for
(
int
b : buf) {
dataOutputStr.writeInt(b);
}
dataOutputStr.flush();
FileInputStream inputStream
=
new
FileInputStream(
"c:\\demo.txt"
);
DataInputStream dataInputStr
=
new
DataInputStream(inputStream);
while
(dataInputStr.available() >
0
) {
System.out.println(
dataInputStr.readInt());
}
}
}
Program 2: Assume the existence of file “demo.txt”.
import
java.io.*;
public
class
GFG {
public
static
void
main(String[] args)
throws
IOException
{
int
[] buf = {
191
,
225
,
480
,
763
,
500
};
FileOutputStream outputStream
=
new
FileOutputStream(
"c:\\demo.txt"
);
DataOutputStream dataOutputStr
=
new
DataOutputStream(outputStream);
for
(
int
b : buf) {
dataOutputStr.writeInt(b);
}
dataOutputStr.flush();
FileInputStream inputStream
=
new
FileInputStream(
"c:\\demo.txt"
);
DataInputStream dataInputStr
=
new
DataInputStream(inputStream);
while
(dataInputStr.available() >
0
) {
System.out.println(
dataInputStr.readInt());
}
}
}
