Creating an InputStream from a String

[Matteo Tassinari]

Hi everybody

as the topic title suggests, I'd like to see if there is some way to create an InputStream from a String. The only way I've been able to find, searching in the Java API documentation, is to create a StringBufferInputStream, but that's a deprecated class and so I do not really like this method.

Does any of you know if there is another method?

Convert String into byte array and use ByteArrayInputStream

And how do I convert a String into a ByteArray? There seems to be no method capable of doing this. Or, at least, I haven't seen it in the API documentation.

Then you haven't looked hard. java.lang.String.

oh my! I must be blind, I didn't see the getBytes() method!

I completely skipped the initial section, looking for something that sounded like "toByteArray()"... Now I know why I didn't find it!

use below cod eto get the byte array form string
String split = "abe.xyz.pqr" ;
ByteArrayInputStream arrayInputStream = new ByteArrayInputStream( split.getBytes() ) ;
