As Alan already proposed, I am just removing it in this very minute. > src/java.base/share/classes/java/io/Reader.java line 174: > >> 172: * @since 24 >> 173: */ >> 174: public static Reader of(CharSequence c) { > > Should we give this factory a more specific name so we don't clash in the > future?

I do not see what is "confusing" in that case, as the caller still gets what he intends: a reader for the passed source. I also wonder how likely that case actually is. Anyways, I may be biased as I proposed `of`. @AlanBateman WDYT? ------------- PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/21371#discussion_r1789120245 PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/21371#discussion_r1789119975
