I want to read an input string and return it as a UTF8 encoded string. SO I found an example on the Oracle/Sun website that used FileInputStream. I didn't want to read a file, but a string, so I changed it to StringBufferInputStream and used the code below. The method parameter jtext, is some Japanese text. Actually this method works great. The question is about the deprecated code. I had to put @SuppressWarnings because StringBufferInputStream is deprecated. I want to know is there a better way to get a string input stream? Is it ok just to leave it as is? I've spent so long trying to fix this problem that I don't want to change anything now I seem to have cracked it.
@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
private String readInput(String jtext) {
StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();
try {
StringBufferInputStream sbis = new StringBufferInputStream (jtext);
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(sbis,
"UTF8");
Reader in = new BufferedReader(isr);
int ch;
while ((ch = in.read()) > -1) {
buffer.append((char)ch);
}
in.close();
return buffer.toString();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
}
}
