Gary Gregory created IO-608: ------------------------------- Summary: Add a convenience NullPrintStream Key: IO-608 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-608 Project: Commons IO Issue Type: New Feature Components: Streams/Writers Reporter: Gary Gregory Assignee: Gary Gregory Fix For: 2.7
We have a handy {{NullOutputStream}}. I'd like to add a convenience {{NullPrintStream}}, which would dead simple: {code:java} /** * This PrintStream writes all data to the famous <b>/dev/null</b>. * <p> * This print stream has no destination (file/socket etc.) and all bytes written to it are ignored and lost. * </p> * @since 2.7 */ public class NullPrintStream extends PrintStream { public static final NullPrintStream NULL_PRINT_STREAM = new NullPrintStream(); @SuppressWarnings("resource") public NullPrintStream() { super(new NullOutputStream()); } } {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
