Attempts to read all remaining() bytes from length byte buffers, in order, starting at buffers[offset]. The number of bytes actually read is returned. 
If a read operation is in progress, subsequent threads will block until the read is completed and will then contend for the ability to read.
| buffers | the array of byte buffers into which the bytes will be copied. | 
|---|---|
| offset | the index of the first buffer to store bytes in. | 
| length | the maximum number of buffers to store bytes in. | 
| AsynchronousCloseException | if the channel is closed by another thread during this read operation. | 
|---|---|
| ClosedByInterruptException | if another thread interrupts the calling thread while the operation is in progress. The interrupt state of the calling thread is set and the channel is closed. | 
| ClosedChannelException | if the channel is closed. | 
| IndexOutOfBoundsException | if offset < 0orlength < 0, or ifoffset + lengthis greater than the size ofbuffers. | 
| IOException | if another I/O error occurs; details are in the message. | 
| NonWritableChannelException | if the channel has not been opened in a mode that permits reading. | 
Reads bytes from this channel into the specified array of buffers.
 This method is equivalent to read(buffers, 0, buffers.length);
| buffers | the array of byte buffers to store the bytes being read. |
