FileChannel.transferTo for large file in windows

2019独角兽企业重金招聘Python工程师标准>>>

Using Java NIO use can copy file faster. I found two kind of method mainly over internet to do this job.

public static void copyFile(File sourceFile, File destinationFile) throws IOException { if (!destinationFile.exists()) { destinationFile.createNewFile(); } FileChannel source = null; FileChannel destination = null; try { source = new FileInputStream(sourceFile).getChannel(); destination = new FileOutputStream(destinationFile).getChannel(); destination.transferFrom(source, 0, source.size()); } finally { if (source != null) { source.close(); } if (destination != null) { destination.close(); } } }

In 20 very useful Java code snippets for Java Developers I found a different comment and trick:

public static void fileCopy(File in, File out) throws IOException { FileChannel inChannel = new FileInputStream(in).getChannel(); FileChannel outChannel = new FileOutputStream(out).getChannel(); try { // inChannel.transferTo(0, inChannel.size(), outChannel); // original -- apparently has trouble copying large files on Windows // magic number for Windows, (64Mb - 32Kb) int maxCount = (64 * 1024 * 1024) - (32 * 1024); long size = inChannel.size(); long position = 0; while (position < size) { position += inChannel.transferTo(position, maxCount, outChannel); } } finally { if (inChannel != null) { inChannel.close(); } if (outChannel != null) { outChannel.close(); } } }

But I didn't find or understand what is meaning of

"magic number for Windows, (64Mb - 32Kb)"

It says thatinChannel.transferTo(0, inChannel.size(), outChannel)has problem in windows, is 32768 (= (64 * 1024 * 1024) - (32 * 1024)) byte is optimum for this method.

Windows has a hard limit on the maximum transfer size, and if you exceed it you get a runtime exception. So you need to tune. The second version you give is superior because it doesn't assume the file was transferred completely with one transferTo() call, which agrees with the Javadoc. Setting the transfer size more than about 1MB is pretty pointless anyway. EDIT Your second version has a flaw. You should decrementmaxCountby the amount transferred each time. It should be more like: while (position < size) { long count = inChannel.transferTo(position, maxCount, outChannel); if (count > 0) { position += count; maxCount -= count; } }
