java.io
Class PrintStream

java.lang.Object
  extended by java.io.OutputStream
      extended by java.io.FilterOutputStream
          extended by java.io.PrintStream
All Implemented Interfaces:
Closeable, Flushable, Appendable
Direct Known Subclasses:
LogStream

public class PrintStream
extends FilterOutputStream
implements Appendable, Closeable

A PrintStream adds functionality to another output stream, namely the ability to print representations of various data values conveniently. Two other features are provided as well. Unlike other output streams, a PrintStream never throws an IOException; instead, exceptional situations merely set an internal flag that can be tested via the checkError method. Optionally, a PrintStream can be created so as to flush automatically; this means that the flush method is automatically invoked after a byte array is written, one of the println methods is invoked, or a newline character or byte ('\n') is written.

All characters printed by a PrintStream are converted into bytes using the platform's default character encoding. The PrintWriter class should be used in situations that require writing characters rather than bytes.

Since:
JDK1.0

Method Detail

flush

public void flush()
Flushes the stream. This is done by writing any buffered output bytes to the underlying output stream and then flushing that stream.

Specified by:
flush in interface Flushable
Overrides:
flush in class FilterOutputStream
See Also:
OutputStream.flush()

close

public void close()
Closes the stream. This is done by flushing the stream and then closing the underlying output stream.

Specified by:
close in interface Closeable
Overrides:
close in class FilterOutputStream
See Also:
OutputStream.close()

checkError

public boolean checkError()
Flushes the stream and checks its error state. The internal error state is set to true when the underlying output stream throws an IOException other than InterruptedIOException, and when the setError method is invoked. If an operation on the underlying output stream throws an InterruptedIOException, then the PrintStream converts the exception back into an interrupt by doing:
     Thread.currentThread().interrupt();
 
or the equivalent.

Returns:
true if and only if this stream has encountered an IOException other than InterruptedIOException, or the setError method has been invoked

setError

protected void setError()
Sets the error state of the stream to true.

This method will cause subsequent invocations of checkError() to return true until clearError() is invoked.

Since:
JDK1.1

clearError

protected void clearError()
Clears the internal error state of this stream.

This method will cause subsequent invocations of checkError() to return false until another write operation fails and invokes setError().

Since:
1.6

write

public void write(int b)
Writes the specified byte to this stream. If the byte is a newline and automatic flushing is enabled then the flush method will be invoked.

Note that the byte is written as given; to write a character that will be translated according to the platform's default character encoding, use the print(char) or println(char) methods.

Overrides:
write in class FilterOutputStream
Parameters:
b - The byte to be written
See Also:
print(char), println(char)

write

public void write(byte[] buf,
                  int off,
                  int len)
Writes len bytes from the specified byte array starting at offset off to this stream. If automatic flushing is enabled then the flush method will be invoked.

Note that the bytes will be written as given; to write characters that will be translated according to the platform's default character encoding, use the print(char) or println(char) methods.

Overrides:
write in class FilterOutputStream
Parameters:
buf - A byte array
off - Offset from which to start taking bytes
len - Number of bytes to write
See Also:
FilterOutputStream.write(int)

print

print

public void print(char c)
Prints a character. The character is translated into one or more bytes according to the platform's default character encoding, and these bytes are written in exactly the manner of the write(int) method.

Parameters:
c - The char to be printed

print

public void print(int i)
Prints an integer. The string produced by String.valueOf(int) is translated into bytes according to the platform's default character encoding, and these bytes are written in exactly the manner of the write(int) method.

Parameters:
i - The int to be printed

Integer.toString(int)

print

public void print(long l)
Prints a long integer. The string produced by String.valueOf(long) is translated into bytes according to the platform's default character encoding, and these bytes are written in exactly the manner of the write(int) method.

Parameters:

See Also:
Long.toString(long)

print

public void print(float f)
Prints a floating-point number. The string produced by String.valueOf(float) is translated into bytes according to the platform's default character encoding, and these bytes are written in exactly the manner of the write(int) method.

Parameters:
f - The float to be printed
See Also:
Float.toString(float)

print

public void print(double d)
Prints a double-precision floating-point number. The string produced by String.valueOf(double) is translated into bytes according to the platform's default character encoding, and these bytes are written in exactly the manner of the write(int) method.

Parameters:

See Also:
Double.toString(double)

print

public void print(char[] s)
Prints an array of characters. The characters are converted into bytes according to the platform's default character encoding, and these bytes are written in exactly the manner of the write(int) method.

Parameters:
s - The array of chars to be printed
Throws:
NullPointerException - If s is null

print

public void print(String s)
Prints a string. If the argument is null then the string "null" is printed. Otherwise, the string's characters are converted into bytes according to the platform's default character encoding, and these bytes are written in exactly the manner of the write(int) method.
