The readBoolean() method of the ObjectInputStream class in Java reads a boolean from the stream.
Syntax:
public boolean readBoolean()
Parameters: This method does not accept any parameter.
Return Value: This method returns the boolean that has been read.
Errors and Exceptions: The function throws two exceptions which is described below:
- EOFException: The function is thrown if the end of file is reached.
- IOException: The function is thrown if an I/O error has occurred.
Below program illustrate the above method:
Program 1:
// Java program to illustrate // the above method   import java.io.*;   public class GFG {     public static void main(String[] args)     {         try {               // create a new file             // with an ObjectOutputStream             FileOutputStream out                 = new FileOutputStream( "gopal.txt" );             ObjectOutputStream out1                 = new ObjectOutputStream(out);               // write             out1.writeUTF( "Geeks for Geeks" );               // Flushes the stream             out1.flush();               // create an ObjectInputStream             // for the file             ObjectInputStream example                 = new ObjectInputStream(                     new FileInputStream( "gopal.txt" ));               // Read from the stream             for ( int i = 0 ; i < example.available();) {                 System.out.print( "" + ( char )example.read());             }         }         catch (Exception ex) {             ex.printStackTrace();         }     } } |
