/** A string buffer implements a mutable sequence of characters.
    <p>
    String buffers are safe for use by multiple threads. The methods
    are synchronized where necessary so that all the operations on any
    particular instance behave as if they occur in some serial order.
    <p>
    String buffers are used by the compiler to implement the binary
    string concatenation operator <code>+</code>. For example, the code:
    <p><blockquote><pre>
        x = "a" + 4 + "c"
    </pre></blockquote><p>
    is compiled to the equivalent of:
    <p><blockquote><pre>
        x = new OStringBuffer().append("a").append(4).append("c")
                              .makeStringAndClear()
    </pre></blockquote><p>
    The principal operations on a <code>OStringBuffer</code> are the
    <code>append</code> and <code>insert</code> methods, which are
    overloaded so as to accept data of any type. Each effectively
    converts a given datum to a string and then appends or inserts the
    characters of that string to the string buffer. The
    <code>append</code> method always adds these characters at the end
    of the buffer; the <code>insert</code> method adds the characters at
    a specified point.
    <p>
    For example, if <code>z</code> refers to a string buffer object
    whose current contents are "<code>start</code>", then
    the method call <code>z.append("le")</code> would cause the string
    buffer to contain "<code>startle</code>", whereas
    <code>z.insert(4, "le")</code> would alter the string buffer to
    contain "<code>starlet</code>".
    <p>
    Every string buffer has a capacity. As long as the length of the
    character sequence contained in the string buffer does not exceed
    the capacity, it is not necessary to allocate a new internal
    buffer array. If the internal buffer overflows, it is
    automatically made larger.
