Create a Java File object (or equivalent) using a byte array in memory (without a physical file)

Question

I want to create a Java File object in memory (without creating a physical file) and populate its content with a byte array.

Can this be done?

Maybe its worth trying a different overload of the method:

addInline(String contentId, 
          InputStreamSource inputStreamSource, 
          String contentType) 

I.e.:

addInline("cImage", 
          new InputStreamSource () 
          {  
             final private InputStream src = 
                                     new ByteArrayInputStream(imageByteArr);
             public InputStream getInputStream() {return src;}
          },
          "image/jpeg"); // or whatever image type you use
