Class DotTerminatedMessageWriter
Writer
org.apache.commons.net.io.DotTerminatedMessageWriter
public final class DotTerminatedMessageWriter
extends Writer
DotTerminatedMessageWriter is a class used to write messages to a
server that are terminated by a single dot followed by a
<CR><LF>
sequence and with double dots appearing at the begining of lines which
do not signal end of message yet start with a dot. Various Internet
protocols such as NNTP and POP3 produce messages of this type.
This class handles the doubling of line-starting periods,
converts single linefeeds to NETASCII newlines, and on closing
will send the final message terminator dot and NETASCII newline
sequence.
@Override | void close() -
Flushes the underlying output, writing all buffered output, but doesn't
actually close the underlying stream.
|
@Override | void flush() -
Flushes the underlying output, writing all buffered output.
|
@Override | void write(String string) -
Writes a String to the output.
|
@Override | void write(String string, int offset, int length) -
Writes part of a String to the output starting from a given offset.

@Override | void write(char[] buffer) -
Writes a character array to the output.
|
@Override | void write(char[] buffer, int offset, int length) -
Writes a number of characters from a character array to the output
starting from a given offset.

@Override | void write(int ch) -
Writes a character to the output.

DotTerminatedMessageWriter
public DotTerminatedMessageWriter(Writer output)
Creates a DotTerminatedMessageWriter that wraps an existing Writer
output destination.
output
- The Writer output destination to write the message.
void close
public @Override void close()
throws IOException
Flushes the underlying output, writing all buffered output, but doesn't
actually close the underlying stream. The underlying stream may still
be used for communicating with the server and therefore is not closed.
void flush
public @Override void flush()
throws IOException
Flushes the underlying output, writing all buffered output.
void write
public @Override void write(String string)
throws IOException
Writes a String to the output.
string
- The String to write.
void write
public @Override void write(String string,
int offset,
int length)
throws IOException
Writes part of a String to the output starting from a given offset.
string
- The String to write.offset
- The offset into the String at which to start copying data.length
- The number of characters to write.
void write
public @Override void write(char[] buffer)
throws IOException
Writes a character array to the output.
buffer
- The character array to write.
void write
public @Override void write(char[] buffer,
int offset,
int length)
throws IOException
Writes a number of characters from a character array to the output
starting from a given offset.
buffer
- The character array to write.offset
- The offset into the array at which to start copying data.length
- The number of characters to write.
void write
public @Override void write(int ch)
throws IOException
Writes a character to the output. Note that a call to this method
may result in multiple writes to the underling Writer in order to
convert naked linefeeds to NETASCII line separators and to double
line-leading periods. This is transparent to the programmer and
is only mentioned for completeness.
ch
- The character to write.
