Comment:
Better usage of try-with-resources; correct typos/wording

  <<Anchor(ImageIOIssues)>>'''I'm using the Java ImageIO to dynamically serve 
images and get strange Exceptions from time to time. Is this a bug in Tomcat?'''
  
- Imagine you have a servlet which dynamically generates images and serves them 
via the Java ImageIO. To write the image to the OutputStream, perhaps you are 
doing something like this:

  {{{
      protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse

          BufferedImage img = createMyImage(); // makes a BufferedImage
          
          response.setContentType("image/png");

try-with-resources

-                 ImageIO.write(img, "PNG", out);
+             ImageIO.write(img, "PNG", out);
-             }
          } catch (IOException ex) {
-             // Client abandoned connection
+             // Client aborted connection
          }
      }
  }}}
  
- Now, although there shouldn't be any Exception logged (because the 
IOException which occurs when the client abandoned the connection is ignored), 
you see strange Exceptions in Tomcat's log which may belong to other 
Servlets/JSP (at least with Sun/Oracle JVM on Windows), saying that the 
response has already commited, althought you didn't write anything to it at 
that time. For example:

  Now you just have to use this Decorater class instead of using Tomcat's 
OutputStream directly:
  {{{
          response.setContentType("image/png");
-         try {
-             try (OutputStream out = new 
MyImageIOOutputStream(response.getOutputStream())) {
+         try (OutputStream out = new 
MyImageIOOutputStream(response.getOutputStream())) {
-                 ImageIO.write(img, "PNG", out);
+             ImageIO.write(img, "PNG", out);
-             }
          } catch (IOException ex) {
-             // Client abandoned connection
+             // Client aborted connection
          }
  }}}
  and the errors should be gone away.
