>          Components: Streams/Writers

> {{org.apache.commons.io.input.ReaderInputStream}} constructed with a {{CharsetEncoder}} with {{CodingErrorAction.REPORT}} does not throw exceptions when unmappable or malformed input is encountered. And in some cases can even enter infinite loops.
> Example:
> {code}
> CharsetEncoder encoder = StandardCharsets.UTF_8.newEncoder().onMalformedInput(CodingErrorAction.REPORT);
> try (InputStream in = new ReaderInputStream(new StringReader("\uD800aa"), encoder, 2)) {
>     in.read();
> }
> {code}
> The reason for this is that the class does not check [{{CoderResult.isError()}}|https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/nio/charset/CoderResult.html#isError()] and then call [{{CoderResult.throwException()}}|https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/nio/charset/CoderResult.html#throwException()].
> ----
> It would also be good to improve the documentation of the constructors taking a {{Charset}} or charset name to describe that they replace unmappable or malformed input with the default replacement character.
