StringWriter write(char[], int, int) in Java

write(char[], int, int): This method is available in the java.io.StringWriter class of Java.

Syntax:

void java.io.StringWriter.write(char[] cbuf, int off, int len)

This method takes three arguments. This method writes a portion of an array of characters.

Parameters: Three parameters are required for this method.

cbuf: Array of characters.

off: Offset from which to start writing characters.

len: Number of characters to write.

Throws:

1. IndexOutOfBoundsException - If off is negative, or len is negative, or off + len is negative or greater than the length of the given array

Approach 1: When no exception

Java

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.StringWriter;

public class StringWriterwrite3 {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

        StringWriter stringWriter = new StringWriter();

        char cbuf[] = { 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e' };
        int off = 0, len = 3;
        stringWriter.write(cbuf, off, len);
        System.out.println("Successfully writes");
    }
}

Output:

Successfully writes

Approach 2: IndexOutOfBoundsException 

Java

package com.StringWriter;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.StringWriter;

public class StringWriterwrite3 {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {

        StringWriter stringWriter = new StringWriter();

        char cbuf[] = { 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e' };
        int off = 0, len = 13;
        stringWriter.write(cbuf, off, len);
        System.out.println("Successfully writes");
    }
}

Output:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException
	at java.base/java.io.StringWriter.write(StringWriter.java:95)
	at com.StringWriter.StringWriterwrite3.main(StringWriterwrite3.java:13)
