Public methods

closeQuietly

Added in API level 29
Deprecated in API level 30

static fun closeQuietly(closeable: AutoCloseable?): Unit

Deprecated: This method may suppress potentially significant exceptions, particularly when closing writable resources. With a writable resource, a failure thrown from close() should be considered as significant as a failure thrown from a write method because it may indicate a failure to flush bytes to the underlying resource.

Closes the given object quietly, ignoring any checked exceptions. Does nothing if the given object is null.

Parameters
closeable	AutoCloseable?: This value may be null.

Closes the given object quietly, ignoring any checked exceptions. Does nothing if the given object is null.

Parameters
fd	FileDescriptor?: This value may be null.

copy

Added in API level 29

static fun copy(
    in: InputStream, 
    out: OutputStream
): Long

Copy the contents of one stream to another.

Attempts to use several optimization strategies to copy the data in the kernel before falling back to a userspace copy as a last resort.

Parameters
in	InputStream: This value cannot be null.
out	OutputStream: This value cannot be null.

Return
Long	number of bytes copied.

copy

Added in API level 29

static fun copy(
    in: InputStream, 
    out: OutputStream, 
    signal: CancellationSignal?, 
    executor: Executor?, 
    listener: FileUtils.ProgressListener?
): Long

Copy the contents of one stream to another.

Attempts to use several optimization strategies to copy the data in the kernel before falling back to a userspace copy as a last resort.

Parameters
signal	CancellationSignal?: to signal if the copy should be cancelled early. This value may be null.
executor	Executor?: that listener events should be delivered via. This value may be null.
listener	FileUtils.ProgressListener?: to be periodically notified as the copy progresses. This value may be null.
in	InputStream: This value cannot be null.
out	OutputStream: This value cannot be null.

Return
Long	number of bytes copied.
