Niall Pemberton commented on IO-192:
------------------------------------
Sorry didn't answer your point about identity hashcode - perhaps you're right,
but if thats a no-go then rather than Object - the tag should be Serializable.

> Key: IO-192
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-192
> Project: Commons IO
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Streams/Writers
> Reporter: Jukka Zitting
> Assignee: Jukka Zitting
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.5

> Attachments: IO-192-tagged-stream-changes.patch, IO-192.patch

> I'd like to introduce two new proxy streams, TaggedInputStream and
> TaggedOutputStream, that tag all exceptions thrown by the proxied streams.
> The goal is to make it easier to detect the source of an IOException when
> you're dealing with multiple different streams. For example:
> {code}
> InputStream input = ...;
> OutputStream output = ...;
> TaggedOutputStream proxy = new TaggedOutputStream(output);
> try {
> IOUtils.copy(input, proxy);
> } catch (IOException e) {
> if (proxy.isTagged(e)) {
> // Could not write to the output stream
> // Perhaps we can handle that error somehow (retry, cancel?)
> e.initCause(); // gives the original exception from the proxied stream
> } else {
> // Could not read from the input stream, nothing we can do
> throw e;
> }
> }
> {code}
> I'm working on a patch to implement such a feature.
