Description Tsirkin Evgeny 2006-02-08 11:30:14 UTC 
while the docs says that :
encoding

protected String encoding

    The encoding to use when opening an InputStream.

    The encoding variable is set to null by default which results in the
utilization of the system's default encoding.

This is actually wrong :
It should be "the encoding to use when opening an *OutputStream*".
