---------------------------------------

Hi Kevin - problem confirmed and really glad that you took the time to add the 
test case ... :-) 

> "Write dead end" IOException when using Piped streams w/PumpStreamHandler

> I came across this issue when I was trying to capture stdout with a 
> PipedOutputStream and then pass that to a PipedInputStream.  The following 
> code will produce the error.  The reason for the error is the 
> PipedOutputStream is not being closed correctly, causing the PipedInputStream 
> to break.

> I was able to mitigate the error by modifying the createProcessOutputPump() 
> method in the PumpStreamHandler class to accept the boolean value 
> closeWhenExhausted, like was used for the setProcessInputStream() method.
> {code}
> protected void createProcessOutputPump(final InputStream is, final 
> OutputStream os, final boolean closeWhenExhausted) {
>     outputThread = createPump(is, os, closeWhenExhausted);
> }
> {code}
> This solution isn't implemented in the best way because in the end you have 
> to pass a boolean value all the way down and it's kind of messy, but its a 
> start.
