/**
 * An OutputStreamWriter is a bridge from character streams to byte streams:
 * Characters written to it are encoded into bytes using a specified {@link
 * java.nio.charset.Charset <code>charset</code>}.  The charset that it uses
 * may be specified by name or may be given explicitly, or the platform's
 * default charset may be accepted.
 *
 * <p> Each invocation of a write() method causes the encoding converter to be
 * invoked on the given character(s).  The resulting bytes are accumulated in a
 * buffer before being written to the underlying output stream.  The size of
 * this buffer may be specified, but by default it is large enough for most
 * purposes.  Note that the characters passed to the write() methods are not
 * buffered.
 *
 * <p> For top efficiency, consider wrapping an OutputStreamWriter within a
 * BufferedWriter so as to avoid frequent converter invocations.  For example:
 *
 * <pre>
 * Writer out
 *   = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(System.out));
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p> A <i>surrogate pair</i> is a character represented by a sequence of two
 * <tt>char</tt> values: A <i>high</i> surrogate in the range '&#92;uD800' to
 * '&#92;uDBFF' followed by a <i>low</i> surrogate in the range '&#92;uDC00' to
 * '&#92;uDFFF'.
 *
 * <p> A <i>malformed surrogate element</i> is a high surrogate that is not
 * followed by a low surrogate or a low surrogate that is not preceded by a
 * high surrogate.
 *
 * <p> This class always replaces malformed surrogate elements and unmappable
 * character sequences with the charset's default <i>substitution sequence</i>.
 * The {@linkplain java.nio.charset.CharsetEncoder} class should be used when more
 * control over the encoding process is required.
