The javadoc was just a starting point - the method name is pretty clear imo opinion what it does - but there are other possibilities.

But on the point above you are not correct. If you follow the code path, you will see that setting a length of 0 - which is what that method defers to - will cause a chunked response to be sent - when it is written to the OutputStream. I am not even sure if you set the transfer-encoding manually that it would work - you still need a "send response headers with a length of 0".
