Memory stream

Hi all,

Is it possible to create a stream originating from a byte[] array? I looked
for "memorystream" and anything approaching and could not find it.
Basically, I have an array of bytes, and I would like to read it via a
standart method that accepts streams as input.

Thanks!

Hmm, ByteArrayInputStream maybe?

And the obverse in ByteArrayOutputStream. My guess is that the OP is a .NET
programmer looking for the Java equivalent of System.IO.MemoryStream.

java.io.ByteArrayInputStream. See also CharArrayReader.

see http://mindprod.com/applet/fileio.html

just tell it the source of your data is a byte[]
and it will generate you code.
