All Implemented Interfaces:

public class CharArrayWriter
extends Writer

This class implements a character buffer that can be used as an Writer. The buffer automatically grows when data is written to the stream. The data can be retrieved using toCharArray() and toString().

Note: Invoking close() on this class has no effect, and methods of this class can be called after the stream has closed without generating an IOException.

Since:

JDK1.1

Field Summary

Modifier and Type	Field and Description
protected char[]	buf The buffer where data is stored.

Field Detail

buf

protected char[] buf

The buffer where data is stored.

count

protected int count

The number of chars in the buffer.

Constructor Detail

CharArrayWriter

public CharArrayWriter()

Creates a new CharArrayWriter.

CharArrayWriter

public CharArrayWriter(int initialSize)

Creates a new CharArrayWriter with the specified initial size.

Parameters:

initialSize - an int specifying the initial buffer size.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if initialSize is negative

Method Detail

write

public void write(int c)

Writes a character to the buffer.

Overrides:

write in class Writer

Parameters:

c - int specifying a character to be written

write

public void write(char[] c,
                  int off,
                  int len)

Writes characters to the buffer.

Specified by:

write in class Writer

Parameters:

c - the data to be written

off - the start offset in the data

len - the number of chars that are written

write

public void write(String str,
                  int off,
                  int len)

Write a portion of a string to the buffer.

Overrides:

write in class Writer

Parameters:

str - String to be written from

off - Offset from which to start reading characters

len - Number of characters to be written

writeTo

public void writeTo(Writer out)
             throws IOException

Writes the contents of the buffer to another character stream.

Parameters:

out - the output stream to write to

Throws:

IOException - If an I/O error occurs.

append

public CharArrayWriter append(CharSequence csq)

Appends the specified character sequence to this writer.

An invocation of this method of the form out.append(csq) behaves in exactly the same way as the invocation

     out.write(csq.toString()) 

Depending on the specification of toString for the character sequence csq, the entire sequence may not be appended. For instance, invoking the toString method of a character buffer will return a subsequence whose content depends upon the buffer's position and limit.

Specified by:

append in interface Appendable

Overrides:

append in class Writer

Parameters:

csq - The character sequence to append. If csq is null, then the four characters "null" are appended to this writer.

Returns:

This writer

Since:

1.5

append

public CharArrayWriter append(CharSequence csq,
                              int start,
                              int end)

Appends a subsequence of the specified character sequence to this writer.

An invocation of this method of the form out.append(csq, start, end) when csq is not null, behaves in exactly the same way as the invocation

     out.write(csq.subSequence(start, end).toString()) 

Specified by:

append in interface Appendable

Overrides:

append in class Writer

Parameters:

csq - The character sequence from which a subsequence will be appended. If csq is null, then characters will be appended as if csq contained the four characters "null".

start - The index of the first character in the subsequence

end - The index of the character following the last character in the subsequence

Returns:

This writer

Throws:

IndexOutOfBoundsException - If start or end are negative, start is greater than end, or end is greater than csq.length()

Since:

1.5

append

public CharArrayWriter append(char c)

Appends the specified character to this writer.

An invocation of this method of the form out.append(c) behaves in exactly the same way as the invocation

     out.write(c) 

Specified by:

append in interface Appendable

Overrides:

append in class Writer

Parameters:

c - The 16-bit character to append

Returns:

This writer

Since:

1.5

reset

public void reset()

Resets the buffer so that you can use it again without throwing away the already allocated buffer.

toCharArray

public char[] toCharArray()

Returns a copy of the input data.

Returns:

an array of chars copied from the input data.

size

public int size()

Returns the current size of the buffer.

Returns:

an int representing the current size of the buffer.

toString

public String toString()

Converts input data to a string.

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

the string.

flush

public void flush()

Flush the stream.

Specified by:

flush in interface Flushable

Specified by:

flush in class Writer

close

public void close()

Close the stream. This method does not release the buffer, since its contents might still be required. Note: Invoking this method in this class will have no effect.

Specified by:

close in interface Closeable

Specified by:

close in interface AutoCloseable

Specified by:

close in class Writer
