Returns:

a Reader that reads the output of the specified CharStreamSource.

toString

public static String toString(CharStreamSource charStreamSource)

Returns the output of the specified CharStreamSource as a string.

The current implementation of this method simply returns new StringReader(toString(charStreamSource)), but a future version may implement this method in a more memory efficient manner, for example by utilising a temporary file.

Parameters:

charStreamSource - the character stream source producing the output.

Returns:

the output of the specified CharStreamSource as a string.
