/**
* This class provides static utility methods for buffered
* copying between sources (InputStream, Reader,
* String and byte[]) and destinations
* (OutputStream, Writer, String and
* byte[]).
*
* Unless otherwise noted, these copy methods do not
* flush or close the streams. Often doing so would require making non-portable
* assumptions about the streams' origin and further use. This means that both
* streams' close() methods must be called after copying. if one
* omits this step, then the stream resources (sockets, file descriptors) are
* released when the associated Stream is garbage-collected. It is not a good
* idea to rely on this mechanism. For a good overview of the distinction
* between "memory management" and "resource management", see
* this
* UnixReview article.
*
* For byte-to-char methods, a copy variant allows the encoding
* to be selected (otherwise the platform default is used). We would like to
* encourage you to always specify the encoding because relying on the platform
* default can lead to unexpected results.
*
* We don't provide special variants for the copy methods that
* let you specify the buffer size because in modern VMs the impact on speed
* seems to be minimal. We're using a default buffer size of 4 KB.
*
* The copy methods use an internal buffer when copying. It is
* therefore advisable not to deliberately wrap the stream arguments
* to the copy methods in Buffered* streams. For
* example, don't do the following:
*
* copy( new BufferedInputStream( in ), new BufferedOutputStream( out ) );
*
* The rationale is as follows:
*
* Imagine that an InputStream's read() is a very expensive operation, which
* would usually suggest wrapping in a BufferedInputStream. The
* BufferedInputStream works by issuing infrequent
* {@link java.io.InputStream#read(byte[] b, int off, int len)} requests on the
* underlying InputStream, to fill an internal buffer, from which further
* read requests can inexpensively get their data (until the buffer
* runs out).
*
* However, the copy methods do the same thing, keeping an
* internal buffer, populated by
* {@link InputStream#read(byte[] b, int off, int len)} requests. Having two
* buffers (or three if the destination stream is also buffered) is pointless,
* and the unnecessary buffer management hurts performance slightly (about 3%,
* according to some simple experiments).
*
* Behold, intrepid explorers; a map of this class:
*
* Method Input Output Dependency
* ------ ----- ------ -------
* 1 copy InputStream OutputStream (primitive)
* 2 copy Reader Writer (primitive)
*
* 3 copy InputStream Writer 2
*
* 4 copy Reader OutputStream 2
*
* 5 copy String OutputStream 2
* 6 copy String Writer (trivial)
*
* 7 copy byte[] Writer 3
* 8 copy byte[] OutputStream (trivial)
*
*
* Note that only the first two methods shuffle bytes; the rest use these
* two, or (if possible) copy using native Java copy methods. As there are
* method variants to specify the encoding, each row may
* correspond to up to 2 methods.
*
* Origin of code: Excalibur.
*
* @deprecated Use IOUtils. Will be removed in 2.0.
* Methods renamed to IOUtils.write() or IOUtils.copy().
* Null handling behavior changed in IOUtils (null data does not
* throw NullPointerException).
