Description

Method "N3JenaWriterCommon.write()" silently ignores IOException from Writer.flush() while writing a model to an OutputStream.

This might lead to debugging nightmares.

Should at the very least throw some runtime exception wrapping the original exception

	@Override
    public synchronized void write(Model model, OutputStream output, String base) 
	{
		try {
			Writer w =  new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(output, "UTF-8")) ;
			write(model, w, base) ;
			try { w.flush() ; } catch (IOException ioEx) {}
		} catch (java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException ex)
		{
			System.err.println("Failed to create UTF-8 writer") ;
		}
	}
