           throws IOException

Writes a sub-array of bytes.

Overrides:

write in class OutputStream

Parameters:

b - the data to be written

off - the start offset in the data

len - the number of bytes to write

Throws:

IOException - If an I/O error has occurred.

close

public final void close()
                 throws IOException

A LogOutputStream cannot be closed, so this does nothing.
