Matt Benson commented on IO-158: -------------------------------- Is there something in particular that makes the openide implementation superior to one already living in the ASF? The Piped*Stream implementation? I am still scarred from some of the hacking I have had to do to deal with Piped*Stream interaction and threads in Ant code. What about this implementation is so attractive? > ReaderInputStream implementation > -------------------------------- > > Key: IO-158 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-158 > Project: Commons IO > Issue Type: Wish > Reporter: Andreas Veithen > Priority: Minor > > The standard Java class InputStreamReader converts a Reader into an > InputStream. In some cases it is necessary to do the reverse, i.e. to convert > a Reader into an InputStream. Several frameworks and libraries have their own > implementation of this functionality (google for "ReaderInputStream"). Among > these are at least four Apache projects: Ant, iBatis, James and XMLBeans. > Commons IO would be a good place to share a common implementation. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
