## Uses of Flushable in java.io

Classes in java.io that implement Flushable
Modifier and Type | Class | Description
--- | --- | ---
`class` | `BufferedOutputStream` | The class implements a buffered output stream.
`class` | `BufferedWriter` | Writes text to a character-output stream, buffering characters so as to provide for the efficient writing of single characters, arrays, and strings.
`class` | `ByteArrayOutputStream` | This class implements an output stream in which the data is written into a byte array.
`class` | `CharArrayWriter` | This class implements a character buffer that can be used as an Writer.
`class` | `Console` | Methods to access the character-based console device, if any, associated with the current Java virtual machine.
`class` | `DataOutputStream` | A data output stream lets an application write primitive Java data types to an output stream in a portable way.
`class` | `FileOutputStream` | A file output stream is an output stream for writing data to a `File` or to a `FileDescriptor`.
`class` | `FileWriter` | Writes text to character files using a default buffer size.
`class` | `FilterOutputStream` | This class is the superclass of all classes that filter output streams.
`class` | `FilterWriter` | Abstract class for writing filtered character streams.
`class` | `ObjectOutputStream` | An ObjectOutputStream writes primitive data types and graphs of Java objects to an OutputStream.
`class` | `OutputStream` | This abstract class is the superclass of all classes representing an output stream of bytes.
`class` | `OutputStreamWriter` | An OutputStreamWriter is a bridge from character streams to byte streams: Characters written to it are encoded into bytes using a specified `charset`.
`class` | `PipedOutputStream` | A piped output stream can be connected to a piped input stream to create a communications pipe.
`class` | `PipedWriter` | Piped character-output streams.
`class` | `PrintStream` | A `PrintStream` adds functionality to another output stream, namely the ability to print representations of various data values conveniently.
`class` | `PrintWriter` | Prints formatted representations of objects to a text-output stream.
`class` | `StringWriter` | A character stream that collects its output in a string buffer, which can then be used to construct a string.
`class` | `Writer` | Abstract class for writing to character streams.
