How to get the size of an InputStream? [duplicate]

问题

I'm having an InputStream from a ProcessBuilder that acutally reads the stdout stream.

Question: how can I know the size of that inmemory InputStream, so I can write it to a HttpResponse http header?

InputStream is = process.getInputStream();
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(is);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(isr);

OutputStream out = response.getOutputStream();
int bytes;
while ((bytes = br.read()) != -1) {
    out.write(bytes);
}

//how can I know the size of the inmemory stream/file written?
//response.setContentLength((int) pdfFile.length());

回答1:

There is no such thing as the size of an input stream. Consider a program which never exits, or a socket peer which never stops sending. And you don't need to know to write it to an HttpResponse header. The Content-length is managed automatically for you.

回答2:

Try this

    InputStream is = process.getInputStream();
    ByteArrayOutputStream os = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    int b;
    while ((b = is.read()) != -1)
        os.write(b);
    response.setContentLength(os.size());
    response.getOutputStream().write(os.toByteArray());

回答3:

If you really want to set the content length header, you'll need to read the entire stream before writing to the response OutputStream

ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
byte[] bytes = new byte[1024];
int count;
while ((count = in.read(bytes)) > 0) {
    out.write(bytes, 0, count);
}
response.setContentLength(out.size();
out.writeTo(response.getOutputStream());

Note: With this approach you've now read the entire stream into memory, this will have an impact on available memory and likely won't scale well.

An InputStream inherently doesn't have a size. It could conceivably keep delivering bytes forever. Or the producing end could end the stream without warning.

If you must find out the length, then you have to read to the end, counting the bytes, and report the length when you finish.

You're worrying about HTTP's Content-length header, and you've got a point. The fact is that the original version of HTTP was not designed for large, dynamically generated content. The protocol inherently expects you to know the size of the content before you start writing it - yet how is that possible if it's (for example) an ongoing chat, or the output of a video camera?

The solution is HTTP's chunked transfer encoding. Here you don't set a Content-Length header. You set Transfer-Encoding: chunked, then write the content as chunks, each of which has a size header.

The HTTP RFC has details one this, or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chunked_transfer_encoding is slightly more friendly.

However most HTTP APIs hide this detail from you. Unless you are developing a web library from scratch (perhaps for academic reasons), you shouldn't have to think about Content-Length or Transfer-Encoding.

import org.apache.commons.io.IOUtils;

   byte[] bytes = IOUtils.toByteArray(inputStream);
   log.message("bytes .lenght "+bytes.length);

            if (bytes.length > 400000)
//some byte range limit`enter code  can add any byte range
              {
                throw new Exception("File Size is larger than 40 MB ..");
              }
