             Summary: IOUtils.toByteArray throws inconsistent exceptions
                 Key: IO-696
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-696
             Project: Commons IO
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: ackelcn


The code of this method is as follows:
{code:java}
public static byte[] toByteArray(final InputStream input, final int size) 
throws IOException {        

      if (size < 0) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("Size must be equal or greater 
than zero: " + size);
        }        if (size == 0) {
            return new byte[0];
        }        final byte[] data = new byte[size];
        int offset = 0;
        int read;        while (offset < size && (read = input.read(data, 
offset, size - offset)) != EOF) {
            offset += read;
        }        
        if (offset != size) {
            throw new IOException("Unexpected read size. current: " + offset + 
", expected: " + size);
        }        return data;
    }
{code}
When size is below zero, it throws IllegalArgumentException, but when size is 
not equal to offset, it throws IOException. It is somewhat confusing. It shall 
throw IOException in both cases, in that both cases check legal sizes.
