Reading Big Assets File Throws OutofMemory Exception

I am trying to read an assets file using InputStream but it throws OutOfMemory Exception , the size of file is 22 mb ( about 22 Million Bytes ! )

This is the code I use

try{
    java.io.InputStream is = MainActivity.this.getAssets().open("file.json");
               int Si = is.available();
               byte[] Bu = new byte[Si];
               is.read(Bu);
               is.close();
               data = new String(Bu, "UTF-8");
}catch(Exception e){
     
}
Solution

  • As @CommonsWare said , just I have to use this

    ((java.io.Reader)(new java.io.InputStreamReader(ContextOfClass.getAssests().open("file name"))))

    In my gson json to listmap/liststring/etc code
