ByteArrayOutputStream out = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
while (true) {
    int r = in.read(buffer);
    if (r == -1) break;
    out.write(buffer, 0, r);
}

byte[] ret = out.toByteArray();

使用普通Java的DataInputStream和它的readFully方法(至少从Java 1.4开始存在):

...
byte[] bytes = new byte[(int) file.length()];
DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(new FileInputStream(file));
dis.readFully(bytes);
...

这个方法还有其他一些形式，但在这个用例中，我一直使用这个方法。

Input Stream is ...
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
int next = in.read();
while (next > -1) {
    bos.write(next);
    next = in.read();
}
bos.flush();
byte[] result = bos.toByteArray();
bos.close();

这对我很有用，

if(inputStream != null){
                ByteArrayOutputStream contentStream = readSourceContent(inputStream);
                String stringContent = contentStream.toString();
                byte[] byteArr = encodeString(stringContent);
            }

readSourceContent ()

public static ByteArrayOutputStream readSourceContent(InputStream inputStream) throws IOException {
        ByteArrayOutputStream outputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        int nextChar;
        try {
            while ((nextChar = inputStream.read()) != -1) {
                outputStream.write(nextChar);
            }
            outputStream.flush();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            throw new IOException("Exception occurred while reading content", e);
        }

        return outputStream;
    }

encodeString（）

public static byte[] encodeString(String content) throws UnsupportedEncodingException {
        byte[] bytes;
        try {
            bytes = content.getBytes();

        } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
            String msg = ENCODING + " is unsupported encoding type";
            log.error(msg,e);
            throw new UnsupportedEncodingException(msg, e);
        }
        return bytes;
    }

下面的代码

public static byte[] serializeObj(Object obj) throws IOException {
  ByteArrayOutputStream baOStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
  ObjectOutputStream objOStream = new ObjectOutputStream(baOStream);

  objOStream.writeObject(obj); 
  objOStream.flush();
  objOStream.close();
  return baOStream.toByteArray(); 
} 

OR

BufferedImage img = ...
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream(1000);
ImageIO.write(img, "jpeg", baos);
baos.flush();
byte[] result = baos.toByteArray();
baos.close();

你可以完全避免缓冲。

从http://www.exampledepot.com/egs/java.io/File2ByteArray.html复制的代码(是的，它非常冗长，但需要的内存大小是其他解决方案的一半)。

// Returns the contents of the file in a byte array.
public static byte[] getBytesFromFile(File file) throws IOException {
    InputStream is = new FileInputStream(file);

    // Get the size of the file
    long length = file.length();

    // You cannot create an array using a long type.
    // It needs to be an int type.
    // Before converting to an int type, check
    // to ensure that file is not larger than Integer.MAX_VALUE.
    if (length > Integer.MAX_VALUE) {
        // File is too large
    }

    // Create the byte array to hold the data
    byte[] bytes = new byte[(int)length];

    // Read in the bytes
    int offset = 0;
    int numRead = 0;
    while (offset < bytes.length
           && (numRead=is.read(bytes, offset, bytes.length-offset)) >= 0) {
        offset += numRead;
    }

    // Ensure all the bytes have been read in
    if (offset < bytes.length) {
        throw new IOException("Could not completely read file "+file.getName());
    }

    // Close the input stream and return bytes
    is.close();
    return bytes;
}
