[Handle-info] net.handle.apps.simple.HDLDelete source question

[Konstantin Rekk <konstantin.rekk@gbv.de>]

Hello,

trying to get some services to work I have to take a closer look to the
source code. I wonder if my understanding is right that in the code
snippet below the keys file contents is read twice into the key byte
array?

net.handle.apps.simple.HDLDelete:
----------------------------------------------------
byte[] key = null;
    try {
      File f = new File(argv[1]);
      FileInputStream fs = new FileInputStream(f);
      key = new byte[(int)f.length()];
// first ----------->
      int n=0;
      while(n<key.length) key[n++] = (byte)fs.read();
// the same once more ? ----------->
      fs.read(key);
    } catch (Throwable t) {
      System.err.println("Cannot read private key " + argv[1] + ": " +
t);
      System.exit(-1);
    }
----------------------------------------------------
