我知道已经太迟了，但我认为这里有更清晰的解决方案，更易于阅读……

public static byte[] streamToByteArray(InputStream stream) throws IOException {

    byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
    ByteArrayOutputStream os = new ByteArrayOutputStream();

    int line = 0;
    // read bytes from stream, and store them in buffer
    while ((line = stream.read(buffer)) != -1) {
        // Writes bytes from byte array (buffer) into output stream.
        os.write(buffer, 0, line);
    }
    stream.close();
    os.flush();
    os.close();
    return os.toByteArray();

20年后，终于有了一个不需要第三方库的简单解决方案，这要感谢Java 9:

InputStream is;
…
byte[] array = is.readAllBytes();

还要注意方便的方法readNBytes(byte[] b, int off, int len)和transferTo(OutputStream)来解决重复的需求。

和往常一样，Spring框架(Spring core从3.2.2开始)也为你提供了一些东西:

您可以使用cactoos库提供可重用的面向对象的Java组件。 这个库强调OOP，因此没有静态方法、null等等，只有真实对象及其契约(接口)。 像读取InputStream这样的简单操作可以这样执行

final InputStream input = ...;
final Bytes bytes = new BytesOf(input);
final byte[] array = bytes.asBytes();
Assert.assertArrayEquals(
    array,
    new byte[]{65, 66, 67}
);

使用专用类型Bytes来处理数据结构byte[]使我们能够使用OOP策略来解决手头的任务。 一些程序性的“效用”方法将禁止我们做的事情。 例如，您需要将从此InputStream读取的字节封装到Base64。 在本例中，您将使用Decorator模式并在Base64的实现中封装Bytes对象。 Cactoos已经提供了这样的实现:

final Bytes encoded = new BytesBase64(
    new BytesOf(
        new InputStreamOf("XYZ")
    )
);
Assert.assertEquals(new TextOf(encoded).asString(), "WFla");

您可以使用Decorator模式以同样的方式解码它们

final Bytes decoded = new Base64Bytes(
    new BytesBase64(
        new BytesOf(
            new InputStreamOf("XYZ")
        )
    )
);
Assert.assertEquals(new TextOf(decoded).asString(), "XYZ");

无论你的任务是什么，你都可以创建自己的Bytes实现来解决它。

请参阅InputStream.available()文档:

It is particularly important to realize that you must not use this method to size a container and assume that you can read the entirety of the stream without needing to resize the container. Such callers should probably write everything they read to a ByteArrayOutputStream and convert that to a byte array. Alternatively, if you're reading from a file, File.length returns the current length of the file (though assuming the file's length can't change may be incorrect, reading a file is inherently racy).
