If you look at the implementations of any of the BinInputStream derivatives, you'll see that they simply return 0 from readBytes() to signal the end-of-stream condition.
By the way, you should be prepared for readBytes() to be called once more after having returned 0 the first time. At least that's been my experience.

I don't know in advance the length of the input data. I cannot give it all at once to Xerces either. I was thinking of deriving a "MyInputStream" from a BinInputStream and getting the data inside readBytes, but what is the "right" way to signal the end of the data ? By returning 0 from readBytes (which is the length of available data, I gather) ? or by throwing an exception ?
