Converting InputStream to MappedByteBuffer in java?

Question

I'm trying to create a android app.

I use InputStream inputStream=getAssets().open("book.txt"); to read the book.txt ;

I just want get the MappedByteBuffer object from InputStream ;

who konws?

========= ===========

I use FileInputStream fis = (FileInputStream) inputStream; cause an error! here is the error log:

I had the similar need of doing this. Here is what I did:
1) Open resource file with asset manager and write a regular file to /data/data/com.yourpackage/files directory. Sample code:

private void prepareModelFile() throws IOException {
        AssetManager assetManager = getAssets();
        String configDir = getFilesDir().getAbsolutePath();
        InputStream stream = assetManager.open("mytestfile_in_assets.data");
        mTFLiteModelFile = configDir +"/mytestfilename.data";
            OutputStream output = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(mTFLiteModelFile));
            copyFile(stream, output);
    }

public static void copyFile(InputStream in, OutputStream out) throws IOException {
    byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
    int read;
    while((read = in.read(buffer)) != -1) {
        out.write(buffer, 0, read);
    }
    in.close();;
    out.close();
}

2) Now you have the file copied out of assets, you can use the following way to create a MappedByteBuffer. Example:

        FileInputStream inputStream = new FileInputStream(mTFLiteModelFile);
        FileChannel fileChannel = inputStream.getChannel();
        MappedByteBuffer myMappedBuffer =  fileChannel.map(FileChannel.MapMode.READ_ONLY, 0, fileChannel.size());

Hope this helps.

To do this you need to first copy your asset to a file and then apply the technique below to a file. If your asset is more than 1MB you will require to split it - Load files bigger than 1M from assets folder

You can't do this with an InputStream. You should instead get a FileInputStream for your book.txt or cast your inputStream and then get a FileChannel from it:

try {
    FileInputStream fis = (FileInputStream) inputStream;
    FileChannel channel = fis.getChannel();
    ByteBuffer buffer = channel.map(FileChannel.MapMode.READ_ONLY, 0, channel.size());

    byte[] bytes = new byte[102];
    buffer.get(bytes);
    System.out.println(new String(bytes));
} catch (IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}

Assuming the InputStream *can* be cast to a FileInputStream. – user207421 Oct 27 '13 at 09:31
Yeah, I hope it's not a DB asset @silenceper is trying to map. – Andrey Chaschev Oct 27 '13 at 09:34
the code `fis = (FileInputStream) inputStream; ` cause an error – silenceper Oct 27 '13 at 10:41
Could you add the stack trace to your post? – Andrey Chaschev Oct 27 '13 at 10:42
Updated the answer - you need first copy your asset to a file. – Andrey Chaschev Oct 27 '13 at 11:23

You can't do that, for many reasons, most of which imply that the question doesn't make sense.
