Andreas Veithen commented on IO-158:
------------------------------------
In my opinion, design-wise the best alternative would be to use the
java.nio.charset classes. Some time ago I used this approach to write an
OutputStream implementation that decodes the stream, decomposes it into lines
and sends them to a logger. I've refactored this code to isolate the character
decoding part. This gives a WriterOutputStream, which would be the natural
counterpart to the ReaderInputStream discussed here. The code can be found here
(I agree to donate it to Commons IO):

> Reporter: Andreas Veithen
> Priority: Minor

> The standard Java class InputStreamReader converts a Reader into an
> InputStream. In some cases it is necessary to do the reverse, i.e. to convert
> a Reader into an InputStream. Several frameworks and libraries have their own
> implementation of this functionality (google for "ReaderInputStream"). Among
> these are at least four Apache projects: Ant, iBatis, James and XMLBeans.
> Commons IO would be a good place to share a common implementation.
