使用与社区wiki答案相同的方法，但更干净，并编译开箱即用(如果你不想导入Apache Commons库，例如在Android上，首选的方法):

public static byte[] getFileBytes(File file) throws IOException {
    ByteArrayOutputStream ous = null;
    InputStream ios = null;
    try {
        byte[] buffer = new byte[4096];
        ous = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        ios = new FileInputStream(file);
        int read = 0;
        while ((read = ios.read(buffer)) != -1)
            ous.write(buffer, 0, read);
    } finally {
        try {
            if (ous != null)
                ous.close();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            // swallow, since not that important
        }
        try {
            if (ios != null)
                ios.close();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            // swallow, since not that important
        }
    }
    return ous.toByteArray();
}

如果你的目标版本少于26个API，试试这个

 private static byte[] readFileToBytes(String filePath) {

    File file = new File(filePath);
    byte[] bytes = new byte[(int) file.length()];

    // funny, if can use Java 7, please uses Files.readAllBytes(path)
    try(FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file)){
        fis.read(bytes);
        return bytes;
    } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    return null;

}

从文件中读取字节的最简单方法

import java.io.*;

class ReadBytesFromFile {
    public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
        // getBytes from anyWhere
        // I'm getting byte array from File
        File file = null;
        FileInputStream fileStream = new FileInputStream(file = new File("ByteArrayInputStreamClass.java"));

        // Instantiate array
        byte[] arr = new byte[(int) file.length()];

        // read All bytes of File stream
        fileStream.read(arr, 0, arr.length);

        for (int X : arr) {
            System.out.print((char) X);
        }
    }
}

// Returns the contents of the file in a byte array.
    public static byte[] getBytesFromFile(File file) throws IOException {        
        // Get the size of the file
        long length = file.length();

        // You cannot create an array using a long type.
        // It needs to be an int type.
        // Before converting to an int type, check
        // to ensure that file is not larger than Integer.MAX_VALUE.
        if (length > Integer.MAX_VALUE) {
            // File is too large
            throw new IOException("File is too large!");
        }

        // Create the byte array to hold the data
        byte[] bytes = new byte[(int)length];

        // Read in the bytes
        int offset = 0;
        int numRead = 0;

        InputStream is = new FileInputStream(file);
        try {
            while (offset < bytes.length
                   && (numRead=is.read(bytes, offset, bytes.length-offset)) >= 0) {
                offset += numRead;
            }
        } finally {
            is.close();
        }

        // Ensure all the bytes have been read in
        if (offset < bytes.length) {
            throw new IOException("Could not completely read file "+file.getName());
        }
        return bytes;
    }

如果你没有Java 8，并且同意我的观点，加入一个庞大的库来避免写几行代码是一个坏主意:

public static byte[] readBytes(InputStream inputStream) throws IOException {
    byte[] b = new byte[1024];
    ByteArrayOutputStream os = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    int c;
    while ((c = inputStream.read(b)) != -1) {
        os.write(b, 0, c);
    }
    return os.toByteArray();
}

调用者负责关闭流。

这取决于什么对你来说是最好的。就生产力而言，不要重复工作，而是使用Apache Commons。FileUtils。readFileToByteArray(文件输入)。
