/**
 * It is unfortunate that java.io.Writer is a class rather than an interface.
 * The serializer has a number of classes that extend java.io.Writer
 * and which send their ouput to a yet another wrapped Writer or OutputStream.
 * 
 * The purpose of this interface is to force such classes to over-ride all of
 * the important methods defined on the java.io.Writer class, namely these:
 * 
 * write(int val)
 * write(char[] chars)
 * write(char[] chars, int start, int count)
 * write(String chars)
 * write(String chars, int start, int count)
 * flush()
 * close()
 * 
 * In this manner nothing will accidentally go directly to 
 * the base class rather than to the wrapped Writer or OutputStream. 
 * 
 * The purpose of this class is to have a uniform way of chaining the output of one writer to
 * the next writer in the chain. In addition there are methods to obtain the Writer or 
 * OutputStream that this object sends its output to.
 * 
 * This interface is only for internal use withing the serializer.
