Reprising discussion of [1] from last month. I updated the patch [2] which now hopefully accounts for the various comments. Specifically the specification of the PrintStream.write(byte[]) override was clarified as follows:
A) If auto-flush is enabled data will be flushed.
B) API Note:
* No IOException is actually thrown but the error flag is set instead;
* Refer user to writeBytes(byte[]) and write(byte[],int,int).
C) Implementation Requirements:
* Equivalent to this.write(buf, 0, buf.length), not super.write(buf, 0, buf.length).
The implementation is updated as well per the foregoing statement.
Thanks,
Brian
