        Writes a string to the underlying output stream as a sequence of characters. Each character is written to the data output stream as if by the writeChar method. If no exception is thrown, the counter written is incremented by twice the length of s.
        Specified by:

        Parameters:

      • writeUTF

        public final void writeUTF​(String str)
                            throws IOException
        Writes a string to the underlying output stream using modified UTF-8 encoding in a machine-independent manner.

        First, two bytes are written to the output stream as if by the writeShort method giving the number of bytes to follow. This value is the number of bytes actually written out, not the length of the string. Following the length, each character of the string is output, in sequence, using the modified UTF-8 encoding for the character. If no exception is thrown, the counter written is incremented by the total number of bytes written to the output stream. This will be at least two plus the length of str, and at most two plus thrice the length of str.

        Specified by:
        writeUTF in interface DataOutput
        Parameters:
        str - a string to be written.
        Throws:
        IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
      • size

        public final int size()
        Returns the current value of the counter written, the number of bytes written to this data output stream so far. If the counter overflows, it will be wrapped to Integer.MAX_VALUE.
        Returns:
        the value of the written field.
