Question

From this example
I learn that

OutputStream out = = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(file));

Is not buffered! Why?

Answer 1

You’re misreading the documentation.

When the docs state:

This stream is not buffered.

… they’re referring to FileOutputStream itself, not the sample code.

Hence the next line in the docs:

Most callers should wrap this stream with a BufferedOutputStream.
