      <La extends L> void exportVariationDiff(VariationDiff<La> variationDiff, OutputStream destination) throws IOException
      Export a variationDiff into destination. This method should have no side effects besides writing to destination. Above all, variationDiff shouldn't be modified. Furthermore, destination shouldn't be closed to allow the embedding of the exported format into a surrounding file. It can be assumed, that destination is sufficiently buffered.
      Parameters:
      variationDiff - to be exported
      destination - where the result should be written
      Throws:
      IOException
