ByteArrayInputStream...?

And if you're reading something sent by another language, beware the endianness of the bytes you're receiving.

First you should read up on the file format see how it's made up.

It's not a bug... it's a feature!

In that case you need to use the ByteInputStream and read bytes form the file and do whatever you ened to do with them.

If the data is big-endian a DataInputStream might come in handier.
