When this stream reaches end of stream, further invocations of this method will return an empty byte array.

Note that this method is intended for simple cases where it is convenient to read all bytes into a byte array. It is not intended for reading input streams with large amounts of data.

If an I/O error occurs reading from the input stream, then it may do so after some, but not all, bytes have been read. Consequently, the input stream may not be at end of stream and may be in an inconsistent state. It is strongly recommended that the stream be promptly closed if an I/O error occurs.

The length of the returned array equals the number of bytes read from the stream. If len is zero, then no bytes are read and an empty byte array is returned. Otherwise, up to len bytes are read from the stream. Fewer than len bytes may be read if end of stream is encountered.

When this stream reaches end of stream, further invocations of this method will return an empty byte array.

Note that this method is intended for simple cases where it is convenient to read the specified number of bytes into a byte array. The total amount of memory allocated by this method is proportional to the number of bytes read from the stream which is bounded by len. Therefore, the method may be safely called with very large values of len provided sufficient memory is available.

If an I/O error occurs reading from the input stream, then it may do so after some, but not all, bytes have been read. Consequently, the input stream may not be at end of stream and may be in an inconsistent state. It is strongly recommended that the stream be promptly closed if an I/O error occurs.

In the case where end of stream is reached before len bytes have been read, then the actual number of bytes read will be returned. When this stream reaches end of stream, further invocations of this method will return zero.

If len is zero, then no bytes are read and 0 is returned; otherwise, there is an attempt to read up to len bytes.

The first byte read is stored into element b[off], the next one in to b[off+1], and so on. The number of bytes read is, at most, equal to len. Let k be the number of bytes actually read; these bytes will be stored in elements b[off] through b[off+k-1], leaving elements b[off+k] through b[off+len-1] unaffected.

If an I/O error occurs reading from the input stream, then it may do so after some, but not all, bytes of b have been updated with data from the input stream. Consequently, the input stream and b may be in an inconsistent state. It is strongly recommended that the stream be promptly closed if an I/O error occurs.

This method blocks until the requested number of bytes has been skipped, end of file is reached, or an exception is thrown.

If end of stream is reached before the stream is at the desired position, then an EOFException is thrown.

If an I/O error occurs, then the input stream may be in an inconsistent state. It is strongly recommended that the stream be promptly closed if an I/O error occurs.

This method may block indefinitely reading from the input stream, or writing to the output stream. The behavior for the case where the input and/or output stream is asynchronously closed , or the thread interrupted during the transfer, is highly input and output stream specific, and therefore not specified.

If an I/O error occurs reading from the input stream or writing to the output stream, then it may do so after some bytes have been read or written. Consequently, the input stream may not be at end of stream and one, or both, streams may be in an inconsistent state. It is strongly recommended that both streams be promptly closed if an I/O error occurs.

If the current entry is compressed and this method returns a nonzero integer n then buf[off] through buf[off+n-1] contain the uncompressed data. The content of elements buf[off+n] through buf[off+len-1] is undefined, contrary to the specification of the InputStream superclass, so an implementation is free to modify these elements during the inflate operation. If this method returns -1 or throws an exception then the content of buf[off] through buf[off+len -1] is undefined.
