Implement A Class Named BitOutputStream

Bitoutputstream Implement A Class Named Bitoutputstream As Shownin

Implement a class named BitOutputStream, as shown in Figure 19.20, for writing bits to an output stream. The writeBit(char bit) method stores the bit in a byte variable. When you create a BitOutputStream, the byte is empty. After invoking writeBit('1'), the byte becomes . After invoking writeBit("0101"), the byte becomes . The first three bits are not filled yet. When a byte is full, it is sent to the output stream. Now the byte is reset to empty. You must close the stream by invoking the close() method. If the byte is not empty and not full, the close() method first fills the zeros to make a full 8 bits in the byte, and then output the byte and close the stream. For a hint, see Exercise 4.46. Write a test program that sends the bits to the file named Exercise19_17.dat.

Implementing a custom BitOutputStream class in Java is an essential task for efficient data compression and transmission, especially when dealing with bit-level data. This class allows writing individual bits to an output stream, managing the bits within a byte and ensuring that data is correctly written in accordance with the specified binary representations. The core challenge lies in correctly buffering bits within a byte until it reaches full capacity (8 bits), then writing it to the output stream, and properly handling the final partial byte upon closing.

The implementation begins by defining a class called BitOutputStream. This class should have private fields to store the underlying OutputStream object, a byte buffer to accumulate bits, and a counter to keep track of how many bits have been stored in the current byte. When a new instance is created, the buffer is initially empty, with zero bits stored.

The writeBit(char bit) method is designed to accept '0' or '1' characters. It converts these characters into their respective bit values and shifts these bits into the buffer. Each time a bit is written, the counter increases by one. When the buffer contains 8 bits, it is written to the underlying output stream, and the buffer and counter reset to prepare for the next set of bits.

Handling the end of the stream, the close() method ensures that any remaining bits are padded with zeros to complete a byte, then writes this final byte to the output stream before closing it. This guarantees that all bits are correctly written, without loss or corruption of data.

Below is a sample implementation demonstrating this concept in Java, including a test program that writes specific bits to a file named Exercise19_17.dat as described in the prompt. This implementation ensures proper bit manipulation, buffering, and file handling, aligning with the typical usage patterns of Java I/O streams.
