I went through the linked JBS issue to understand why we are adding this. The use case appears to be that the application uses a BufferedReader instance on top of the underlying Reader R1, then does some API calls on the BufferedReader, then uses a separate and new BufferedReader instance on top of the same underlying R1 Reader instance. I think the proposal to add this text is OK, although I wonder if this should also be added or is applicable to `BufferedOutputStream` too. Also, do you think we could reword the proposed text a bit? It wasn't immediately clear to me what issue we were trying to address with that text. Would something like the following be clearer: > More than one instance of a BufferedReader should not be used with the same > instance of the underlying Reader. Doing so can cause the BufferedReader > instances to return an incorrect result since each instance of the > BufferedReader maintains its own state. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/20320#issuecomment-2251988591
