As I indicated in my other post, you can't use an Integer parameter as
an out parameter.  The Integer value remains 0 because Read doesn't
change the value of tmp1 in Clean.  Unless you are planning to add
more logic to Read and Write, I wouldn't even bother writing your own
functions.  Just call read and write correctly.

I would change it to look like this:

  public void Clean()
  {
    int tmp = 0;

    try
    {
      while (tmp != -1)
      {
        tmp = fin.read();
        // process tmp
        fout.write(tmp);
      }//end while
    }
    catch(IOException e)
    {
      // handle other errors here
    }
  }//end Clean()
