ByteArrayInputStream reset() method in Java with Examples

The reset() method is a built-in method of the Java.io.ByteArrayInputStream is invoked by mark() method. It repositions the input stream to the marked position.

Syntax

public void reset()

Parameters: The function does not accepts any parameter. 
Return Value: The function does not returns anything. 

Below is the implementation of the above function:
Program 1: 

Java




// Java program to implement
// the above function
import java.io.*;
 
public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
    {
 
        byte[] buf = { 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 };
 
        // Create new byte array input stream
        ByteArrayInputStream exam
            = new ByteArrayInputStream(buf);
 
        // print bytes
        System.out.println(exam.read());
        System.out.println(exam.read());
        System.out.println(exam.read());
 
        // Use of reset() method :
        // repositioning the stream to marked positions.
        exam.reset();
 
        System.out.println("\nreset() invoked");
        System.out.println(exam.read());
        System.out.println(exam.read());
    }
}


Output: 

5
6
7

reset() invoked
5
6

 

Program 2: 

Java




// Java program to implement
// the above function
import java.io.*;
 
public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
    {
 
        byte[] buf = { 1, 2, 3, 4 };
 
        // Create new byte array input stream
        ByteArrayInputStream exam
            = new ByteArrayInputStream(buf);
 
        // print bytes
        System.out.println(exam.read());
        System.out.println(exam.read());
        System.out.println(exam.read());
 
        exam.mark(1);
 
        // Use of reset() method :
        // repositioning the stream to marked positions.
        exam.reset();
 
        System.out.println("\nreset() invoked");
        System.out.println(exam.read());
        System.out.println(exam.read());
    }
}


Output: 

1
