The buffer where data is stored.
-
count
- The number of chars in the buffer.
-
CharArrayWriter()
- Creates a new CharArrayWriter.
-
CharArrayWriter(int)
- Creates a new CharArrayWriter with the specified initial size.
-
close()
- Close the stream.
-
flush()
- Flush the stream.
-
reset()
- Resets the buffer so that you can use it again without
throwing away the already allocated buffer.
-
size()
- Returns the current size of the buffer.
-
toCharArray()
- Returns a copy of the input data.
-
toString()
- Converts input data to a string.
-
write(char[], int, int)
- Writes characters to the buffer.
-
write(int)
- Writes a character to the buffer.
-
write(String, int, int)
