[iText-questions] Does document.close() close underlying stream?

Bear Giles Fri, 04 Mar 2005 06:21:19 -0800

I'm running into an unusual snag. Some things I've read suggest that I need to call document.close() for PDF generation to work reliably, but document.close() appears to close the underlying stream in addition to flushing structures.

This isn't a problem when writing to disk, but I'm writing to a (hidden) ByteArrayOutputStream used by a convenience class that handles email. Close that stream and it disappears - before the contents can be attached to the outgoing message. Seriously uncool.

The other tools I've used, e.g., POI for generating XLS files, don't seem to have the same behavior.

Have I missed something?

Thanks,

Bear
