Java: accessing a List of Strings as an InputStream

Question

Is there any way InputStream wrapping a list of UTF-8 String? I\'d like to do something like:

InputStream in = new XyzInputStream( List         


        

Answer 1

You can do something similar to this:

https://commons.apache.org/sandbox/flatfile/xref/org/apache/commons/flatfile/util/ConcatenatedInputStream.html

It just implements the read() method of InputStream and has a list of InputStreams it is concatenating. Once it reads an EOF it starts reading from the next InputStream. Just convert the Strings to ByteArrayInputStreams.
