Off the top of my head, I would say it's not possible to change the design of an _extensible_ type that has been out there for 20 or so years. All these I/O streams from java.io were designed for simple synchronous use case.
It's not that their design is flawed in some way, it's that they doesn't seem to suit your needs. Have you considered using java.nio.channels.AsynchronousFileChannel in your applications? -Pavel > On 21 Oct 2016, at 17:08, Brunoais <brunoa...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Any feedback on this?
