ok, let's take e.g. the HTMLSerializer: - the HTMLSerializer's setOutputStream method immediately calls super.setOutputStream(out) which is - the AbstractTextSerializer's implementation, which in turn will wrap the output stream into a BufferedOutputStream and call super.setOutputStream() with the buffered stream. - Finally AbstractSerializer's setOutputStream method will simply set the field this.output. - The field this.output will then subsequently be used by the HTMLSerializer to create a StreamResult. Now, if you look at revision 1.4 of the HTMLSerializer, you can see that super.setOutputStream was called, but the variable used to create the StreamResult was the method parameter. As a result, any intervention of the superclasses on the stream was in vain.
