They are used as 24 * factories for I/O objects that might throw {@link java.io.IOException} when 25 * being created. The advantage of using a factory is that the helper methods in 26 * this package can take care of closing the resource properly, even if an 27 * exception is thrown. The {@link com.google.common.io.ByteStreams}, 28 * {@link com.google.common.io.CharStreams}, and 29 * {@link com.google.common.io.Files} classes all have static helper methods to 30 * create new factories and to work with them. 31 * 32 * <p>This package is a part of the open-source 33 * <a href="http://guava-libraries.googlecode.com">Guava libraries</a>. 34 * 35 * @author Chris Nokleberg 36 */ 37 @ParametersAreNonnullByDefault 38 package com.google.common.io; 39 40 import javax.annotation.ParametersAreNonnullByDefault; 41
