[jdom-interest] XMLOutputter clipping text ... a bug?

[William Krick]

It comes out fine in system out but not in the file.

If I send the output to a different file instead of the same file, it works
correctly.

I would think that as long as I close the FileInputStream before I open the
FileOutputStream, it should be okay using the same file.

I'm at a loss as to what the heck is happening here.

I've never heard of this before.  I'm going to guess it has to do with
your stream.  Dump it to System.out for another view.
