/**
 * This is the base class for additional output results (implementations
 * of {@link javax.xml.transform.Result}) that Stax2
 * {@link org.codehaus.stax2.XMLInputFactory2} implementations should support.
 *
 * Note about usage by the parser factory implementations: the expectation
 * is that at least one of methods {@link #constructWriter} and
 * {@link #constructOutputStream} will succeed, but not necessarily both.
 * This generally depends on type of resource being represented: for example,
 * if the source is a StringBuffer, it is most naturally
 * represent via {@link Writer}. For File-backed results, on the other hand,
 * an {@link OutputStream} is the most natural access method.
 *

 * Other things to note about using result {@link Writer}s and
 * {@link OutputStream}s:
 * 

 *  Caller is responsible for closing any {@link Writer} and
 *    {@link OutputStream} instances requested. That is, caller owns
 *    these accessor objects.
 *   
 *  Result objects are only required to return a non-null object
 *    once: after this, if new non-null instances are returned,
 *    they must not be the same objects as returned earlier.
 *    Implementations can choose to construct new instances to the same
 *    backing data structure or resource; if so, they should document
 *    this behavior.
