Java Convert 4 bytes to int

i was wondering if the solution for this documented here is still the solution or is there any other way getting an int from 4 bytes?

thank you.

EDIT: im getting the byte[] from sockets .read

EDIT: int recvMsgSize = in.read(Data, 0, BufferSize); if recvMsgSize is -1 i know the connection has been dropped.

how do i detect this when im using DataInputStream instead of InputStream?

thanks.

EDIT: apologies for being a yoyo regarding accepting the right answer. but after mihi's updated final response, it would appear that the method is solid and cuts down extended coding and in my opinion best practice.
