Best way to translate this java code into kotlin

Question

URL url = new URL(urlSpec);
HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
InputStream in = connection.getInputStream();
int bytesRead = 0;
         


        

Answer 1

You could use apply block to execute the assignment:

val input= connection.getInputStream();
var bytesRead = 0;
val buffer = ByteArray(1024)
while (input.read(buffer).apply { bytesRead = this } > 0) {
    out.write(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
}
