Java Program to Convert OutputStream to String

In this Java tutorial, we will learn how to convert OutputStream to string. I hope this Java tutorial will help you to understand the conversion of OutputStream to string in Java. We will use string initializer in this program.

I will explain this conversion through an easy example. Though I will explain the methods I am gonna use in this program and some basic info you need to know. I hope that will make a better sense and understandable for all the readers.

Here we will use these following:

• ByteArrayOutputStream Class
• String Class
• write() method
• toByteArray() method

How to Convert OutputStream to String in Java with Example

We will follow the following steps:

1. At first, we will create an OutputStream.
2. We will create a string.
3. We will use the write() method to set the string’s value to the OutputStream, we have created before.
4. Finally, we will create another string. Then we will use the toByteArray() method to convert the OutputStream value into a string. We will store this string value in our lastly created final string.

Here is a simple example to Convert OutputStream to String in Java

import java.io.*;
public class My_class {
    public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException {
        ByteArrayOutputStream mystream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        String mystring = "Welcome To CodeSpeedy";
        mystream.write(line.getBytes());
        String converted_string = new String(mystream.toByteArray());
        System.out.println(converted_string);
    }
}

Output:
