FileChannel.transferFrom fails for larger files with Out of memory Error

问题

FileChannel.transferFrom(source, 0, source.size()) gives the following OutOfMemory exception, when trying to copy a file of size around 2GB. I understand the memory issue due to larger files. Can we solve it by coping the file in small chunks, in a loop?

Edit:

I tried the following code :

    for (long n = 0, s = source.size() >> 1; n < s;) {
     Log.d("copy file", "inside for loop " + destination.size()); 
     long c = destination.transferFrom(source, n, s - n); 
     n += c; 
     Log.d("copy file", "results: c=" + c + ", n=" + n); 
    }

but it copies only the first half of the file...

回答1:

I ran into the same issue with FileChannel.transferFrom, but I even occasionally saw the ENOMEM error with files less than 512MB.

Here's the code I ended up using to transfer the file in smaller blocks:

  // Transfer file in 256MB blocks
  final long blockSize = Math.min(268435456, sourceChannel.size());
  long position = 0;
  while (destinationChannel.transferFrom(sourceChannel, position, blockSize) > 0) {
    position += blockSize;
  }

The transferFrom method returns the number of bytes it succeeded in copying. If it returns a number greater than zero, it copied the whole block, so attempt to copy another block. When it doesn't copy anything, you're done.
