import org.apache.commons.io.TaggedIOException;

An output stream decorator that tags potential exceptions so that the stream that caused the exception can easily be identified. This is done by using the TaggedIOException class to wrap all thrown IOExceptions. See below for an example of using this class.
TaggedOutputStream stream = new TaggedOutputStream(...);
try {
    // Processing that may throw an IOException either from this stream
    // or from some other IO activity like temporary files, etc.
    writeToStream(stream);
} catch (IOException e) {
    if (stream.isCauseOf(e)) {
        // The exception was caused by this stream.
        // Use e.getCause() to get the original exception.
    } else {
        // The exception was caused by something else.
    }
}

Alternatively, the throwIfCauseOf(Exception) method can be used to let higher levels of code handle the exception caused by this stream while other processing errors are being taken care of at this lower level.

TaggedOutputStream stream = new TaggedOutputStream(...);
try {
    writeToStream(stream);
} catch (IOException e) {
    stream.throwIfCauseOf(e);
    // ... or process the exception that was caused by something else
}

public class TaggedOutputStream extends ProxyOutputStream {
The unique tag associated with exceptions from stream.
/** * The unique tag associated with exceptions from stream. */
private final Serializable tag = UUID.randomUUID();
Creates a tagging decorator for the given output stream.
Params:
  • proxy – output stream to be decorated
/** * Creates a tagging decorator for the given output stream. * * @param proxy output stream to be decorated */
public TaggedOutputStream(final OutputStream proxy) { super(proxy); }
Tests if the given exception was caused by this stream.
Params:
  • exception – an exception
Returns:true if the exception was thrown by this stream, false otherwise
/** * Tests if the given exception was caused by this stream. * * @param exception an exception * @return {@code true} if the exception was thrown by this stream, * {@code false} otherwise */

Re-throws the original exception thrown by this stream. This method first checks whether the given exception is a TaggedIOException wrapper created by this decorator, and then unwraps and throws the original wrapped exception. Returns normally if the exception was not thrown by this stream.
Params:
  • exception – an exception
Throws:
  • IOException – original exception, if any, thrown by this stream
/** * Re-throws the original exception thrown by this stream.

public void throwIfCauseOf(final Exception exception) throws IOException { TaggedIOException.throwCauseIfTaggedWith(exception, tag); }
Tags any IOExceptions thrown, wrapping and re-throwing.
Params:
  • e – The IOException thrown
Throws:
