The writes should be synchronized.

You can simplify that. Have it extend FilterOutputStream; construct it with super(out); get rid of the out member; and change all the out. references to super. references.

@Dave Depends on the use case. EJP I like it better this way, but that would work also.

@DaveNewton Mind explaining your comment about "writes should be synchronized", is it mandatory? Do regularl java io streams use a synchronized keyword?

@KohányiRóbert There is something magical. Using code that lots of other people are using increases the likelihood that any bugs in the code are found and fixed. For example, when out.close() throws an IOException and tee.close() is skipped because exception handling did not ensure the second stream got closed.
