Read/write file to internal private storage

Question

I\'m porting the application from Symbian/iPhone to Android, part of which is saving some data into file. I used the FileOutputStream to save the file into

Answer 1

This isn't really Android-specific but more Java oriented.

If you prefer line-oriented reading instead, you could wrap the FileInputStream in an InputStreamReader which you can then pass to a BufferedReader. The BufferedReader instance has a readLine() method you can use to read line by line.

InputStreamReader in = new InputStreamReader(fis);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(in);
String data = br.readLine()

Alternatively, if you use the Google Guava library you can use the convenience function in ByteStreams:

String data = new String(ByteStreams.toByteArray(fis));
