/**
* <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 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.
