A PrintStream
adds functionality to another output stream, namely the ability to print representations of various data values conveniently. Two other features are provided as well. Unlike other output streams, a PrintStream
never throws an IOException
; instead, exceptional situations merely set an internal flag that can be tested via the checkError
method. Optionally, a PrintStream
can be created so as to flush automatically; this means that the flush
method of the underlying output stream is automatically invoked after a byte array is written, one of the println
methods is invoked, or a newline character or byte ('\n'
) is written.
All characters printed by a PrintStream
are converted into bytes using the given encoding or charset, or the platform's default character encoding if not specified. The PrintWriter
class should be used in situations that require writing characters rather than bytes.
This class always replaces malformed and unmappable character sequences with the charset's default replacement string. The java.nio.charset.CharsetEncoder class should be used when more control over the encoding process is required.

Public methods
append
open fun append(csq: CharSequence?): PrintStream
Appends the specified character sequence to this output stream.
An invocation of this method of the form out.append(csq)
behaves in exactly the same way as the invocation
<code>out.print(csq.toString()) </code>
Depending on the specification of toString
for the character sequence csq
, the entire sequence may not be appended. For instance, invoking then toString
method of a character buffer will return a subsequence whose content depends upon the buffer's position and limit.
Parameters | |
---|---|
csq |
CharSequence?: The character sequence to append. If csq is null , then the four characters "null" are appended to this output stream. |
Return | |
---|---|
PrintStream |
This output stream |
Exceptions | |
---|---|
java.io.IOException |
If an I/O error occurs |
append
open fun append(
csq: CharSequence?,
start: Int,
end: Int
): PrintStream
Appends a subsequence of the specified character sequence to this output stream.
An invocation of this method of the form out.append(csq, start, end)
when csq
is not null
, behaves in exactly the same way as the invocation
<code>out.print(csq.subSequence(start, end).toString()) </code>
Parameters | |
---|---|
csq |
CharSequence?: The character sequence from which a subsequence will be appended. If csq is null , then characters will be appended as if csq contained the four characters "null" . |
start |
Int: The index of the first character in the subsequence |
end |
Int: The index of the character following the last character in the subsequence |
Return | |
---|---|

java.io.IOException |
If an I/O error occurs |
append
open fun append(c: Char): PrintStream

when the underlying output stream throws an IOException
other than InterruptedIOException
, and when the setError
method is invoked. If an operation on the underlying output stream throws an InterruptedIOException
, then the PrintStream
converts the exception back into an interrupt by doing:
<code>Thread.currentThread().interrupt(); </code>
Return | |
---|---|
Boolean |
true if and only if this stream has encountered an IOException other than InterruptedIOException , or the setError method has been invoked |
