See http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/io/fileio.html[^] for information on the Java File I/O system. Assuming you can open the file or device then it should be broadly the same as in C++.

You can't do this. The reason is Java can't call Windows API directly.

You can use Java Native Interface (JNI) for calling Windows APIs.
