question: public String encode ( byte aBuffer [ ] ) { ByteArrayOutputStream outStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream ( ) ; ByteArrayInputStream inStream = new ByteArrayInputStream ( aBuffer ) ; String retVal = null ; try { encode ( inStream , outStream ) ; retVal = outStream . toString ( "8859_1" ) ; } catch ( Exception IOException ) { throw new Error ( "CharacterEncoder.encode internal error" ) ; } return ( retVal ) ; }
target:  183 * A 'streamless' version of encode that simply takes a buffer of 184 * bytes and returns a string containing the encoded buffer. 185
