[jira] Commented: (IO-158) ReaderInputStream implementation

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IO-158?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12576840#action_12576840 ] 

Niall Pemberton commented on IO-158:
------------------------------------

I found three of them, but not the James one:

Ant:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ant/core/trunk/src/main/org/apache/tools/ant/util/ReaderInputStream.java

iBatis
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ibatis/trunk/java/mapper/mapper2/src/com/ibatis/common/io/ReaderInputStream.java

XMLBeans:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/xmlbeans/trunk/src/common/org/apache/xmlbeans/impl/common/ReaderInputStream.java

>From an initial scan I would pick the ant one - XMLBeans needs other classes and iBatis has some copyright stuff that would be simpler to not have to work out what needs to go in our NOTICE file - also I found a test case for the ant impl:

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ant/core/trunk/src/tests/junit/org/apache/tools/ant/util/ReaderInputStreamTest.java

> The standard Java class InputStreamReader converts a Reader into an InputStream. In some cases it is necessary to do the reverse, i.e. to convert a Reader into an InputStream. Several frameworks and libraries have their own implementation of this functionality (google for "ReaderInputStream"). Among these are at least four Apache projects: Ant, iBatis, James and XMLBeans. Commons IO would be a good place to share a common implementation.
