Writer writes all data to the famous /dev/null.
This Writer has no destination (file/socket etc.) and all
characters written to it are ignored and lost.

| Modifier and Type | Method and Description |

| public void | close()
Implements abstract java. Implements java. |
| public void | flush()
Implements abstract java. Implements java. |
| public void | write(int
int specifying a character to be written idx)Overrides java. |
| public void | write(char[]
Array of characters to be written chr)Overrides java. |
| public void | write(char[]
Array of characters chr, int Offset from which to start writing characters st, int Number of characters to write end)Implements abstract java. |

A String str, int Offset from which to start writing characters st, int Number of characters to write end)Overrides java. |
| NullWriter | back to summary |
|---|---|
| public NullWriter() Constructs a new NullWriter. | |
| close | back to summary |
|---|---|
| public void close() Implements abstract java. Implements java. Doc from java. Closes the stream, flushing it first. Once the stream has been closed, further write() or flush() invocations will cause an IOException to be thrown. Closing a previously closed stream has no effect.
| |
| flush | back to summary |
|---|---|
| public void flush() Implements abstract java. Implements java. Doc from java. Flushes the stream. If the stream has saved any characters from the various write() methods in a buffer, write them immediately to their intended destination. Then, if that destination is another character or byte stream, flush it. Thus one flush() invocation will flush all the buffers in a chain of Writers and OutputStreams. If the intended destination of this stream is an abstraction provided by the underlying operating system, for example a file, then flushing the stream guarantees only that bytes previously written to the stream are passed to the operating system for writing; it does not guarantee that they are actually written to a physical device such as a disk drive.

| write | back to summary |
|---|---|
| public void write(int idx) Overrides java. Doc from java. Writes a single character. The character to be written is contained in the 16 low-order bits of the given integer value; the 16 high-order bits are ignored. Subclasses that intend to support efficient single-character output should override this method.
