/**
  * This class allows data to be written to a byte array buffer and
  * and then retrieved by an application.   The internal byte array
  * buffer is dynamically resized to hold all the data written.  Please
  * be aware that writing large amounts to data to this stream will
  * cause large amounts of memory to be allocated.
  * <p>
  * The size of the internal buffer defaults to 32 and it is resized
  * by doubling the size of the buffer.  This default size can be
  * overridden by using the
  * <code>gnu.java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream.initialBufferSize</code>
  * property.
  * <p>
  * There is a constructor that specified the initial buffer size and
  * that is the preferred way to set that value because it it portable
  * across all Java class library implementations.
  * <p>
  * Note that this class also has methods that convert the byte array
  * buffer to a <code>String</code> using either the system default or an
  * application specified character encoding.  Thus it can handle
  * multibyte character encodings.
