Error reading ByteArrayInputStream after Parsing it.

Question

Hello All,
I have an XML string:
String ji = "<book><person>dsdds</person></book>";
ByteArrayInputStream str = new ByteArrayInputStream(ji.getBytes());I can succesfully read it into a ByteArrayOutputStream like this:
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
               byte b;
               while ((b =(byte) str.read()) != -1) {
                    bos.write(b);
               String s = bos.toString();
               System.out.println(s);It works!!
Now I need to parse that XML string:
DocumentBuilderFactory documentBuilderFactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
               DocumentBuilder docBuilder =  documentBuilderFactory.newDocumentBuilder();
               Document doc = docBuilder.parse(str);
               doc.getDocumentElement().normalize();After that the reading of the ByteArrayInputStream using .read() does not work.
Does not even throw an exception.
Please help.
I cannot use File objetc for Parsing here.

Hi Masijade,
Thanks but it still throws no output. I marked it to 0
String ji = "<book><person>dsdds</person></book>";
          ByteArrayInputStream str = new ByteArrayInputStream(ji.getBytes());
          ByteArrayOutputStream os=null;
          OutputStream oos = null;
          try
               DocumentBuilderFactory documentBuilderFactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
               DocumentBuilder docBuilder =  documentBuilderFactory.newDocumentBuilder();
               Document doc = docBuilder.parse(str);
               //doc.getDocumentElement().normalize();
               str.mark(0);
               ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
               byte b;
               while ((b =(byte) str.read()) != -1) {
                    bos.write(b);
               str.reset();
               String s = bos.toString();
               System.out.println(s);Am I doing this right?
