public class UnsafeByteArrayOutputStream extends ByteArrayOutputStream

An unsynchronized implementation of ByteArrayOutputStream that will return the backing byte array if its length == size(). This avoids unneeded array copy where the BOS is simply being used to extract a byte array of known length from a 'serialized to stream' method.

Unless the final length can be accurately predicted the only performance this will yield is due to unsynchronized methods.

  • Method Details

    • write

      public void write(int b)
      Writes the specified byte to this byte array output stream.
      Overrides:
      write in class ByteArrayOutputStream
      Parameters:
      b - the byte to be written.
    • write

      public void write(byte[] b, int off, int len)
      Writes len bytes from the specified byte array starting at offset off to this byte array output stream.
      Overrides:
      write in class ByteArrayOutputStream
      Parameters:
      b - the data.
      off - the start offset in the data.
      len - the number of bytes to write.
    • writeTo

      public void writeTo(OutputStream out) throws IOException
      Writes the complete contents of this byte array output stream to the specified output stream argument, as if by calling the output stream's write method using out.write(buf, 0, count).
      Overrides:
      writeTo in class ByteArrayOutputStream
      Parameters:
      out - the output stream to which to write the data.
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
    • reset

      public void reset()
      Resets the count field of this byte array output stream to zero, so that all currently accumulated output in the output stream is discarded. The output stream can be used again, reusing the already allocated buffer space.
      Overrides:
      reset in class ByteArrayOutputStream

    • toByteArray

      public byte[] toByteArray()
      Creates a newly allocated byte array. Its size is the current size of this output stream and the valid contents of the buffer have been copied into it.
      Overrides:
      toByteArray in class ByteArrayOutputStream
      Returns:
      the current contents of this output stream, as a byte array.
      See Also:
    • size

      public int size()
      Returns the current size of the buffer.
      Overrides:
      size in class ByteArrayOutputStream
      Returns:
      the value of the count field, which is the number of valid bytes in this output stream.
