Method Detail

readBytes

public java.lang.String readBytes(int len)
                           throws java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException,
                                  java.io.IOException

Reads a string from a stream as an array of bytes. Since each Unicode character is read as two bytes, the specified length is effectively multiplied by 2.

Overrides:

readBytes in class NativeDataInputStream

Parameters:

len - number of characters to read from stream

Returns:

a String

Throws:

java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException - not likely

java.io.IOException - if an IO error occurs
