How to get binary data of attachment?

Hi all,

There is a sample coding which is from service now document.

var attachment_sys_id = 'bacd7034dbeaa3403aff6a4948964f28';
attachmentStream = new GlideSysAttachmentInputStream(attachment_sys_id);

However, attachmentStream is just something like "[B@89e840" but I want the real binary data.

I have read through documents but I didn' t find the answer.

Can anyone help me out?

For all those still unable to download attachment, I've uploaded a Scripted REST API source in the following thread. Please also read the reply to the code because I've fixed a bug.
