Flushing OutputStream

800607Aug 8 2008 — edited Aug 19 2008

Greetings & Salutations,
I'm beginning Java programming and have a question. What does the flush() method of OutputStream really provide and is it necessary to call? Can the call be omitted?
I looked at the API notes and did not fully understand the documentation.

Thanks,
Baldeep.
