Method PrintWriter.write(char[], int, int) incorrectly writes the characters.
Following example shows that only 5 characters (instead of 6) appears in the
 ByteArrayOutputStream after this method has been performed.

Here is the example

---- t.java ----

import java.io.*;

class t {
    public static void main(String args[]) {

        char[] streamChars = { (char)0, (char)32, (char)65,
                (char)127,(char)128, (char)255 };

        ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        PrintWriter prnw = new PrintWriter(baos);

        prnw.write(streamChars,0,streamChars.length);
        prnw.flush();
        System.out.println("Resulting length = " + baos.size());
        System.out.println("Expected length = " + streamChars.length);
    }
}
