Just to see if I picked up the Discussion so far. The discussion is about that original sentence from: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~reinhapa/reviews/8067661/webrev.03
"Depending on which class implements the appendable, there may be a limit of data that can written to which in turn could lead to an exception." And your current suggestion would look like: 1) "If the destination is capacity bounded and has insufficient capacity to append all characters read from the source then the exception may be thrown after transferring some characters to the destination" At the version from: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~reinhapa/reviews/8067661/webrev.04 I got the version from Brian Burkhalter suggested earlier: 2) "Note that it is possible an implementing class may limit the number of characters which may be transferred and throw an exception if this limit is exceeded." Now looking at both versions, the version 1 seems a bit more declarative than version 2 and I would go for the first one... -Patrick Am 15.11.2017 um 19:07 schrieb Brian Burkhalter: > On Nov 15, 2017, at 3:22 AM, Alan Bateman <alan.bate...@oracle.com > <mailto:alan.bate...@oracle.com>> wrote: > >> . > > Could “is capacity-bounded and” be removed? > > Brian
