/**
* <p>
* The actions and template data in a JSP page is written using the
* JspWriter object that is referenced by the implicit variable out which
* is initialized automatically using methods in the PageContext object.
*<p>
* This abstract class emulates some of the functionality found in the
* java.io.BufferedWriter and java.io.PrintWriter classes,
* however it differs in that it throws java.io.IOException from the print
* methods while PrintWriter does not.
* <p><B>Buffering</B>
* <p>
* The initial JspWriter object is associated with the PrintWriter object
* of the ServletResponse in a way that depends on whether the page is or
* is not buffered. If the page is not buffered, output written to this
* JspWriter object will be written through to the PrintWriter directly,
* which will be created if necessary by invoking the getWriter() method
* on the response object. But if the page is buffered, the PrintWriter
* object will not be created until the buffer is flushed and
* operations like setContentType() are legal. Since this flexibility
* simplifies programming substantially, buffering is the default for JSP
* pages.
* <p>
* Buffering raises the issue of what to do when the buffer is
* exceeded. Two approaches can be taken:
* <ul>
* <li>
* Exceeding the buffer is not a fatal error; when the buffer is
* exceeded, just flush the output.
* <li>
* Exceeding the buffer is a fatal error; when the buffer is exceeded,
* raise an exception.
* </ul>
* <p>
* Both approaches are valid, and thus both are supported in the JSP
* technology. The behavior of a page is controlled by the autoFlush
* attribute, which defaults to true. In general, JSP pages that need to
* be sure that correct and complete data has been sent to their client
* may want to set autoFlush to false, with a typical case being that
* where the client is an application itself. On the other hand, JSP
* pages that send data that is meaningful even when partially
* constructed may want to set autoFlush to true; such as when the
* data is sent for immediate display through a browser. Each application
* will need to consider their specific needs.
* <p>
* An alternative considered was to make the buffer size unbounded; but,
* this had the disadvantage that runaway computations would consume an
* unbounded amount of resources.
* <p>
* The "out" implicit variable of a JSP implementation class is of this type.
* If the page directive selects autoflush="true" then all the I/O operations
* on this class shall automatically flush the contents of the buffer if an
* overflow condition would result if the current operation were performed
* without a flush. If autoflush="false" then all the I/O operations on this
* class shall throw an IOException if performing the current operation would
* result in a buffer overflow condition.
