Flushes this data output stream.

  Flushes this data output stream. This forces any buffered output bytes to be written out to the stream.

The flush method of DataOutputStream calls the flush method of its underlying output stream.
Throws:
- IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
See Also: FilterOutputStream.out, OutputStream.flush(),

  Returns the current value of the counter written, the number of bytes written to this data output stream so far.

  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.

If no exception is thrown, the counter written is
incremented by len.
Parameters:
- b - the data.
- off - the start offset in the data.
- len - the number of bytes to write.
Throws:
- IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

  Writes a boolean to the underlying output stream as a 1-byte value.

  Writes a boolean to the underlying output stream as
a 1-byte value. The value true is written out as the
value (byte)1; the value false is
written out as the value (byte)0. If no exception is
thrown, the counter written is incremented by
1.
Parameters:
- v - a boolean value to be written.
Throws:
- IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

a 1-byte value. If no exception is thrown, the counter
written is incremented by 1.
Parameters:
- v - a byte value to be written.
Throws:
- IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
See Also: FilterOutputStream.out,

  Writes out the string to the underlying output stream as a sequence of bytes.

  Writes out the string to the underlying output stream as a
sequence of bytes. Each character in the string is written out, in
sequence, by discarding its high eight bits. If no exception is
thrown, the counter written is incremented by the
length of s.
Parameters:
- s - a string of bytes to be written.
Throws:
- IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
See Also: FilterOutputStream.out,

  Writes a char to the underlying output stream as a 2-byte value, high byte first.

  Writes a char to the underlying output stream as a
2-byte value, high byte first. If no exception is thrown, the
counter written is incremented by 2.
Parameters:
- v - a char value to be written.
Throws:
- IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
See Also: FilterOutputStream.out,

  Writes a string to the underlying output stream as a sequence of characters.

  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.
Parameters:
- s - a String value to be written.
Throws:
- IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

  Converts the double argument to a long using the doubleToLongBits method in class Double, and then writes that long value to the underlying output stream as an 8-byte quantity, high byte first.

  Converts the double argument to a long using the
doubleToLongBits method in class Double,
and then writes that long value to the underlying
output stream as an 8-byte quantity, high byte first. If no
exception is thrown, the counter written is
incremented by 8.
Parameters:
- v - a double value to be written.
Throws:
- IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
See Also: FilterOutputStream.out, Double.doubleToLongBits(double),

  Converts the float argument to an int using the floatToIntBits method in class Float, and then writes that int value to the underlying output stream as a 4-byte quantity, high byte first.

  Converts the float argument to an int using the
floatToIntBits method in class Float,
and then writes that int value to the underlying
output stream as a 4-byte quantity, high byte first. If no
exception is thrown, the counter written is
incremented by 4.
Parameters:
- v - a float value to be written.
Throws:
- IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

  Writes an int to the underlying output stream as four bytes, high byte first.

  Writes an int to the underlying output stream as four
bytes, high byte first. If no exception is thrown, the counter
written is incremented by 4.
Parameters:
- v - an int to be written.
Throws:
- IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
See Also: FilterOutputStream.out,

  Writes a long to the underlying output stream as eight bytes, high byte first.

  Writes a long to the underlying output stream as eight
bytes, high byte first. In no exception is thrown, the counter
written is incremented by 8.
Parameters:
- v - a long to be written.
Throws:
- IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

  Writes a short to the underlying output stream as two bytes, high byte first.

  Writes a short to the underlying output stream as two
bytes, high byte first. If no exception is thrown, the counter
written is incremented by 2.
Parameters:
- v - a short to be written.

  Writes a string to the underlying output stream using modified UTF-8 encoding in a machine-independent manner.

  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.
Parameters:
- str - a string to be written.
Throws:
- IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

  Writes a string to the specified DataOutput using modified UTF-8 encoding in a machine-independent manner.

If no exception is thrown, the counter written is incremented by the total number of bytes written to the output stream.
