Niall Pemberton updated IO-406:
-------------------------------
Attachment: IO-406-AppendableOutputStream.patch
Commons IO already has StringBuilderWriter (but not a StringBufferWriter) and
WriterOutputStream implementations that can be combined to create a
StringBuilder OutputStream. The advantage of using the WriterOutputStream
implementation is that a CharsetDecoder can be used for converting the
characters to bytes.
However, if people think this is a good idea then an AppendableOutputStream is
more generic - providing for StringBuilder, StringBuffer and any Writer
implementation. Attaching a patch with that
> Move StringBufferOutputStream class to apache commons io project.
