#33395 — Can anyone help me how to read UTF-16 file in java 7.

I am trying read UTF-16 encoded file in JDK 7, can anyone help me out. I can able to read in Python by:

fread = open(r'sample.dat', 'rb').read()
mytext = fread.decode('utf-16')
print mytext
I tried so many ways in java 7 but not succeeded. Thanks in advance.

Traditional:

BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new 
FileInputStream(fnm), "UTF-16"));
String line;
while((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
     // process line
}

More close to youe Python code:

List<String> lines = Files.readAllLines(fnm, StandardCharSets.UTF_16);

But there are plenty of alternatives.

@Prashant, you'll want to familiarize yourself with the API docs on Oracle.com, because you could have looked that up there in five minutes.
