You can’t directly convert it to string. You should implement something like this
Add this code to your method
//Commented this out because this is not the efficient way to achieve that
//StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
//int ch;
//while((ch = fis.read()) != -1){
// builder.append((char)ch);
//}
//
//System.out.println(builder.toString());
Use Aubin’s solution:
public static String getFileContent(
FileInputStream fis,
String encoding ) throws IOException
{
try( BufferedReader br =
new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader(fis, encoding )))
{
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
String line;
while(( line = br.readLine()) != null ) {
sb.append( line );
sb.append( '\n' );
}
return sb.toString();
}
}
