 The java.io.OutputStreamWriter throws CharConversionException
for malformed surrogate pairs in non-8859_1 encodings. See the
evaluation for bug 4167118.


The example:

import java.io.OutputStreamWriter;
import java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException;

class Test {
  public static void main(String[] argv) {
  
 // Tests the handling of a the high word of a character surrogate pair
 char chars[] = {'a','\uD80F','x'};

 String encodings[]={
  "8859_1","8859_2","8859_3","8859_4","8859_5","8859_6","8859_7","8859_8",
  "8859_9","Cp1250","Cp1251","Cp1252","Cp1253","Cp1254","Cp1255","Cp1256",
  "Cp1257","Cp1258","Cp437","Cp737","Cp775","Cp850","Cp852","Cp855","Cp857",
  "Cp860","Cp861","Cp862","Cp863","Cp864","Cp865","Cp866","Cp869","Cp874",
  "MacCentralEurope","MacCroatian","MacCyrillic","MacGreek","MacIceland",
  "MacRoman","MacRomania","MacThai","MacTurkish","MacUkraine" };
 OutputStreamWriter writer = null;
  
  for (int i=0; i<encodings.length; i++) {
   try {
    writer = new OutputStreamWriter(
                              new ByteArrayOutputStream( ),encodings[i]);
   } catch( UnsupportedEncodingException e ) {
    System.out.println(encodings[i]+" "+e);
    }
                              
   try {
    writer.write( chars ); // write chars
    System.out.println(encodings[i]+": No IOException");
   }
   catch( IOException e ) {
    System.out.println(encodings[i]+" "+e);
   }
   finally {
    try{
     writer.close();
    } catch (Exception ex) {}
   }
  }
     System.exit(0);
  }
}
