[OpenJDK 2D-Dev] 8187898: PrintStream should override FilterOutputStream#write(byte[]) with a method that has no throws clause

[Roger Riggs]

Hi Brian,

Would it be appropriate to add @Override to the new method (and perhaps 
existing overridden methods).

Previously, calling FilterOutputStream.write(byte[]) would delegate to 
write(byte[], 0, length).
The proposed change duplicates the code and changes the ways that 
overridden classes might see the call.
What's the benefit of duplicating the code and calling out.write(buf)?

Not my call, but in PSPrinterJob.java (970-977) it might be cleaner to 
just delete the unused code and comment.

(The CSR will need to note the source incompatibility due to the removal 
of a declared exception)

Thanks, Roger
