[jira] Closed: (LANG-372) ToStringBuilder: MULTI_LINE_STYLE does not print anything from appendToString methods.

Henri Yandell closed LANG-372.

    Resolution: Won't Fix

Marking this as WONTFIX. It's a design bug rather than a code bug, and I don't see any obvious ways to surgically fix it.

I've also added Bjorn's unit test as a proof of this so if it does change in the future we can notice (r594387).

>          Issue Type: Bug

> To reproduce, just use the following sample on an object:
> return new ToStringBuilder(this, ToStringStyle.MULTI_LINE_STYLE)
>                 .appendToString(ob1.toString())
>                 .appendToString(ob2.toString())
>                 .append("something", something)
>                 .toString();
> You won't see the ob1.toString or the ob2.toString
> And this works correctly:
> return new ToStringBuilder(this)
>                 .appendToString(ob1.toString())
>                 .appendToString(ob2.toString())
>                 .append("something", something)
>                 .toString();
