Return Value

Returns the string value that was read.

Exceptions

IOException thrown if an I/O error occurs or if the stream does not support reading.

Remarks

This method first reads the length of the string as a 32-bit unsigned integer and then reads that many 16-bit Unicode characters into the string.
