Deprecated. As of version 4.5. To be removed in 8.0 or later. No externally facing replacement will be supported.

public class InputData

extends Object

Utility methods providing access to a single InputStream or byte array. This class contains operations for transforming an InputStream into various formats.

Field Summary

Deprecated.

Method Summary

String	getContents() Deprecated. Since 4.1 SP2, to be removed in 8.0 or later, no replacement - unsafe due to unspecified character encoding.

Constructor Detail

InputData

public InputData(byte[] data)

Deprecated.

Method Detail

toString

public String toString()

Deprecated. Since 4.1 SP2, to be removed in 8.0 or later, no replacement - unsafe due to unspecified character encoding.

Get contents of InputData as a String.

Overrides:

toString in class Object

getData

public byte[] getData()

Deprecated.

getLen

public int getLen()

Deprecated.

getTimeStamp

public long getTimeStamp()

Deprecated.

getMD5

public byte[] getMD5()

Deprecated.

getMD5String

public String getMD5String()

Deprecated.

getContents

public String getContents()

Deprecated. Since 4.1 SP2, to be removed in 8.0 or later, no replacement - unsafe due to unspecified character encoding.

Get contents of InputData as a String.

getString

public static String getString(InputStream input_stream)

Deprecated. Since 4.1 SP2, to be removed in 8.0 or later, no replacement - unsafe due to unspecified character encoding.

Get contents of InputData as a String.

getString

public static String getString(InputStream input_stream,
                               boolean single_byte_read)

Deprecated. Since 4.1 SP2, to be removed in 8.0 or later, no replacement - unsafe due to unspecified character encoding.

Get contents of InputData as a String reading single byte at a time.

getInputData

public static InputData getInputData(InputStream input_stream)

Deprecated.

Read all the bytes from an InputStream and return an InputData object containing the bytes. (single_byte_read defaults to false.)

getInputData

public static InputData getInputData(InputStream input_stream,
                                     boolean single_byte_read)

Deprecated.

Read all the bytes from an InputStream and return an InputData object containing the bytes.

Note: for reading BLOB's from a database, it's better to use the methods in SQLConnection since they automatically set the proper value for single_byte_read. (Must be off for DB2, on for Access.)
