public class RandomAccessFile extends Object implements DataOutput, DataInput, Closeable
Instances of this class support both reading and writing to a random access file. A random access file behaves like a large array of bytes stored in the file system. There is a kind of cursor, or index into the implied array, called the file pointer; input operations read bytes starting at the file pointer and advance the file pointer past the bytes read. If the random access file is created in read/write mode, then output operations are also available; output operations write bytes starting at the file pointer and advance the file pointer past the bytes written. Output operations that write past the current end of the implied array cause the array to be extended. The file pointer can be read by thegetFilePointermethod and set by theseekmethod.It is generally true of all the reading routines in this class that if end-of-file is reached before the desired number of bytes has been read, an
EOFException(which is a kind ofIOException) is thrown. If any byte cannot be read for any reason other than end-of-file, anIOExceptionother thanEOFExceptionis thrown. In particular, anIOExceptionmay be thrown if the stream has been closed.- Since:

RandomAccessFile
public RandomAccessFile(String name, String mode) throws FileNotFoundException
Creates a random access file stream to read from, and optionally to write to, a file with the specified name. A newFileDescriptorobject is created to represent the connection to the file.The
modeargument specifies the access mode with which the file is to be opened. The permitted values and their meanings are as specified for theRandomAccessFile(File,String)constructor.If there is a security manager, its
checkReadmethod is called with thenameargument as its argument to see if read access to the file is allowed. If the mode allows writing, the security manager'scheckWritemethod is also called with thenameargument as its argument to see if write access to the file is allowed.- Parameters:
name- the system-dependent filenamemode- the access mode- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException- if the mode argument is not equal to one of"r","rw","rws", or"rwd"FileNotFoundException- if the mode is"r"but the given string does not denote an existing regular file, or if the mode begins with"rw"but the given string does not denote an existing, writable regular file and a new regular file of that name cannot be created, or if some other error occurs while opening or creating the fileSecurityException- if a security manager exists and itscheckReadmethod denies read access to the file or the mode is"rw"and the security manager'scheckWritemethod denies write access to the file- See Also:

RandomAccessFile
public RandomAccessFile(File file, String mode) throws FileNotFoundException
Creates a random access file stream to read from, and optionally to write to, the file specified by theFileargument. A newFileDescriptorobject is created to represent this file connection.The
modeargument specifies the access mode in which the file is to be opened. The permitted values and their meanings are:
TheValue Meaning "r"Open for reading only. Invoking any of the writemethods of the resulting object will cause anIOExceptionto be thrown."rw"Open for reading and writing. If the file does not already exist then an attempt will be made to create it. "rws"Open for reading and writing, as with "rw", and also require that every update to the file's content or metadata be written synchronously to the underlying storage device."rwd"Open for reading and writing, as with "rw", and also require that every update to the file's content be written synchronously to the underlying storage device."rws"and"rwd"modes work much like theforce(boolean)method of theFileChannelclass, passing arguments oftrueandfalse, respectively, except that they always apply to every I/O operation and are therefore often more efficient. If the file resides on a local storage device then when an invocation of a method of this class returns it is guaranteed that all changes made to the file by that invocation will have been written to that device. This is useful for ensuring that critical information is not lost in the event of a system crash. If the file does not reside on a local device then no such guarantee is made.The
"rwd"mode can be used to reduce the number of I/O operations performed. Using"rwd"only requires updates to the file's content to be written to storage; using"rws"requires updates to both the file's content and its metadata to be written, which generally requires at least one more low-level I/O operation.If there is a security manager, its
checkReadmethod is called with the pathname of thefileargument as its argument to see if read access to the file is allowed. If the mode allows writing, the security manager'scheckWritemethod is also called with the path argument to see if write access to the file is allowed.- Parameters:
file- the file objectmode- the access mode, as described above- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException- if the mode argument is not equal to one of"r","rw","rws", or"rwd"FileNotFoundException- if the mode is"r"but the given file object does not denote an existing regular file, or if the mode begins with"rw"but the given file object does not denote an existing, writable regular file and a new regular file of that name cannot be created, or if some other error occurs while opening or creating the fileSecurityException- if a security manager exists and itscheckReadmethod denies read access to the file or the mode is"rw"and the security manager'scheckWritemethod denies write access to the file- See Also:

public int skipBytes(int n) throws IOExceptionAttempts to skip overnbytes of input discarding the skipped bytes.This method may skip over some smaller number of bytes, possibly zero. This may result from any of a number of conditions; reaching end of file before

readLine
public final String readLine() throws IOException
Reads the next line of text from this file. This method successively reads bytes from the file, starting at the current file pointer, until it reaches a line terminator or the end of the file. Each byte is converted into a character by taking the byte's value for the lower eight bits of the character and setting the high eight bits of the character to zero. This method does not, therefore, support the full Unicode character set.A line of text is terminated by a carriage-return character (
'\r'), a newline character ('\n'), a carriage-return character immediately followed by a newline character, or the end of the file. Line-terminating characters are discarded and are not included as part of the string returned.This method blocks until a newline character is read, a carriage return and the byte following it are read (to see if it is a newline), the end of the file is reached, or an exception is thrown.

readUnsignedShort. This value gives the number of following bytes that are in the encoded string, not the length of the resulting string. The following bytes are then interpreted as bytes encoding characters in the modified UTF-8 format and are converted into characters.This method blocks until all the bytes are read, the end of the stream is detected, or an exception is thrown.
- Specified by:
readUTFin interfaceDataInput- Returns:
- a Unicode string.
