* This implementation provides a light weight * object for testing with an {@link Reader} * where the contents don't matter. *
* One use case would be for testing the handling of * large {@link Reader} as it can emulate that * scenario without the overhead of actually processing * large numbers of characters - significantly speeding up * test execution times. *
* This implementation returns a space from the method that
* reads a character and leaves the array unchanged in the read
* methods that are passed a character array.
* If alternative data is required the processChar() and
* processChars() methods can be implemented to generate
* data, for example:
*
*
* public class TestReader extends NullReader {
* public TestReader(int size) {
* super(size);
* }
* protected char processChar() {
* return ... // return required value here
* }
* protected void processChars(char[] chars, int offset, int length) {
* for (int i = offset; i < length; i++) {
* chars[i] = ... // set array value here
* }
* }
* }
*
*
