Java – how do I check if a byte array is empty?

I am using the following code to get the uploaded file

@POST
    @Path("update")
    @Consumes(MediaType.WILDCARD)
    public boolean updateWorkBookMaster(MultipartFormDataInput input) {
        try {
            //get form data
            Map<String,List<InputPart>> uploadForm = input.getFormDataMap();

            //get uploaded file
            List<InputPart> inputParts = uploadForm.get("workBookFile");
            MultivaluedMap<String,String> header = inputParts.get(0).getHeaders();
            InputStream inputStream = inputParts.get(0).getBody(InputStream.class,null);
            byte[] bytes = IoUtils.toByteArray(inputStream);

Now I want to check whether this byte [] is empty. During debugging, I didn't upload any files. It shows that its length is 9. Why isn't its 9 0

Solution

You can check the null of a file in the following ways:

import org.glassfish.jersey.media.multipart.ContentDisposition;
import org.glassfish.jersey.media.multipart.FormDataBodyPart;
import org.glassfish.jersey.media.multipart.FormDataMultiPart;

@POST
@Path("update")
@Consumes(MediaType.WILDCARD)
public boolean updateWorkBookMaster(FormDataMultiPart multiPartData) {
    try {
        final FormDataBodyPart workBookFilePart = multiPartData.getField("workBookFile");
        final ContentDisposition workBookFileDetails = workBookFilePart.getContentDisposition();
        final InputStream workBookFileDocument = workBookFilePart.getValueAs(InputStream.class);

        if (workBookFileDetails.getFileName() != null || 
            workBookFileDetails.getFileName().trim().length() > 0 ) {
            // file is present
        } else {
            // file is not uploadded
        }
    } ... // other code
}
