/* Construct an buffer input stream using some String value.
This is deprecated method in java api 1.6. */
StringBufferInputStream obj = new StringBufferInputStream("MAHENDRA");
// Construct the buffer using the buffer input stream obj.
BufferedInputStream bin = new BufferedInputStream(obj);
// available() method call.
int byteCount = bin.available();
System.out.print("The number of bytes that can be read : "+byteCount);
}
} |
