Java in a Nutshell, 5th Edition

Name

Appendable

Synopsis

Objects that implement this interface can have characters or character sequences appended to them. Appendable was added in Java 5.0 as a simple unifying API for StringBuffer and StringBuilder, java.nio.CharBuffer, and character output stream subclasses of java.io.Writer. The java.util.Formatter class can send formatted output to any Appendable object. See also Readable.
