Not sure I understand your question correctly. But if you have the
byte stream, why couldn't you wrap it up using the InputStreamReader?
The byte stream will be converted to character stream which you can
then save or output to some writer of choice. For example:

        try {
            out = new YourWriter( // where you want to output );
            in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(
                                        YourByteStream ));

        String byteInput;

            // byte stream is converted into character stream in next
line
        while ((byteInput = in.readLine()) != null) {
            out.write(byteInput, 0, byteInput.length());
                // more code
        }

        } catch (IOException e) {
            // exception handling code here
        }

Hope this helps. -x

Hi,

How can one convert a byte stream into a charcater stream.

We do have Streams (InputStreamReader and OutStream writer) to read
from and write to byteStreams from character streams.

But, If I want to write from a byte stream to a characater stream,
what should be done.

Thank you.
