A destination to which bytes can be written, such as a file. Unlike an OutputStream, a ByteSink is not an open, stateful stream that can be written to and closed. Instead, it is an immutable supplier of OutputStream instances.

ByteSink provides two kinds of methods:

  • Methods that return a stream: These methods should return a new, independent instance each time they are called. The caller is responsible for ensuring that the returned stream is closed.
  • Convenience methods: These are implementations of common operations that are typically implemented by opening a stream using one of the methods in the first category, doing something and finally closing the stream or channel that was opened.

Opens a new OutputStream for writing to this sink. This method returns a new, independent stream each time it is called.

The caller is responsible for ensuring that the returned stream is closed.

Throws:

Opens a new buffered OutputStream for writing to this sink. The returned stream is not required to be a BufferedOutputStream in order to allow implementations to simply delegate to openStream() when the stream returned by that method does not benefit from additional buffering (for example, a ByteArrayOutputStream). This method returns a new, independent stream each time it is called.

The caller is responsible for ensuring that the returned stream is closed.

Throws:
  • IOException – if an I/O error occurs while opening the stream
