Method Detail

skip

public static void skip(InputStream stream,
                        long size)
                 throws IOException

This method is an alternative for the InputStream.skip() -method that doesn't seem to work properly for big values of size .

Parameters:

stream - the InputStream

size - the number of bytes to skip

Throws:

IOException

createEscapedString

public static byte[] createEscapedString(byte[] bytes)

Escapes a byte array according to the PDF conventions.

Parameters:

bytes - the byte array to escape

Returns:

an escaped byte array

writeEscapedString

public static void writeEscapedString(OutputStream outputStream,
                                      byte[] bytes)

Escapes a byte array according to the PDF conventions.

Parameters:

outputStream - the OutputStream an escaped byte array write to.

bytes - the byte array to escape.

writeHexedString

createBufferedHexedString

public static ByteBuffer createBufferedHexedString(byte[] bytes)

transferBytes

public static void transferBytes(InputStream input,
                                 OutputStream output)
                          throws IOException

Throws:

IOException

transferBytes

public static void transferBytes(RandomAccessFileOrArray input,
                                 OutputStream output)
                          throws IOException

Throws:

IOException

inputStreamToArray

public static byte[] inputStreamToArray(InputStream stream)
                                 throws IOException

Reads the full content of a stream and returns them in a byte array

Parameters:

stream - the stream to read

Returns:

a byte array containing all of the bytes from the stream

Throws:

IOException - if there is a problem reading from the input stream

copyBytes

public static void copyBytes(IRandomAccessSource source,
                             long start,
                             long length,
                             OutputStream output)
                      throws IOException

Copy bytes from the RandomAccessSource to OutputStream.

Parameters:

source - the RandomAccessSource copy from.

start - start position of source copy from.

length - length copy to.

output - the OutputStream copy to.

Throws:

IOException - on error.

readFully

public static void readFully(InputStream input,
                             byte[] b,
                             int off,
                             int len)
                      throws IOException

Reads len bytes from an input stream.

Parameters:

b - the buffer into which the data is read.

off - an int specifying the offset into the data.

len - an int specifying the number of bytes to read.

Throws:

EOFException - if this stream reaches the end before reading all the bytes.

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
