Writes raw bytes to the response under a caller-chosen content type, from either a byte array or an input stream. Created via ViewsBuilder.binaryView(...) from server-side JS and returned from a controller as the view for a request. The stream form is streamed to the response and the stream is closed afterwards, so it can only be rendered once; the byte array form is written in a single call and so holds the whole payload in memory. Any byte range on the request is ignored - the full content is always written.

Methods

getDescription()

Returns: String

Short, user-facing label for this view, always "Binary data".

render(CommonResource page, OutputStream out, Range range, Map<String,String> params, String contentType)

Returns: void

Writes the view's bytes to the response. A byte array is written in one call; an input stream is copied to the response and then closed, with a warning logged if closing it fails.

getContentType()

Returns: String

The content type supplied at construction, sent as the response's content type.
