Final answer:
Java commonly uses the console method to read characters until a newline character is encountered.
Step-by-step explanation:
The programming language that commonly uses the console method to read characters until a newline character is encountered is Java.
 
In Java, the console method Scanner.nextLine() reads the input from the console until a newline character is encountered, and returns the result as a string.
 
For example, the following code snippet reads a line of text entered by the user:
 
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Main {
 public static void main(String[] args) {
 Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
 System.out.println("Enter a line of text:");
 String input = scanner.nextLine();
 System.out.println("You entered: " + input);
 scanner.close();
 }
}
