Interface ILineWriter

public interface ILineWriter

The ILineWriter interface defines the API for line-oriented writing of an OutputStream. An instance of ILineWriter can be created using the FactoryUtility singleton.

 OutputStream stream = ...
 FactoryUtility utility = FactoryUtility.getInstance();
 try {
   ILineWriter writer = null;
   try {
     writer = utility.createLineWriter(stream);
     ...
   } finally {
     if (writer != null) {
       writer.close();
     }
   }
 } catch (IOException exception) {
   ...
 } 
 

Lines are written to the stream using either write(String) or writeLine(String). The method newLine() is used to add a new line to the stream. Flushing the stream is done using the method flush(), although this is implied when the close() method is called.
