    public interface ChannelBuffer
    extends <ChannelBuffer>
    A random and sequential accessible sequence of zero or more bytes (octets). This interface provides an abstract view for one or more primitive byte arrays (byte[]) and .

    Creation of a buffer

    It is recommended to create a new buffer using the helper methods in ChannelBuffers rather than calling an individual implementation's constructor.

    Random Access Indexing

    Just like an ordinary primitive byte array, . It means the index of the first byte is always 0 and the index of the last byte is always capacity - 1. For example, to iterate all bytes of a buffer, you can do the following, regardless of its internal implementation:

     ChannelBuffer buffer = ...;
     for (int i = 0; i < buffer.capacity(); i ++) {
         byte b = buffer.getByte(i);
         System.out.println((char) b);
     }
     

    Sequential Access Indexing

    ChannelBuffer provides two pointer variables to support sequential read and write operations - readerIndex for a read operation and writerIndex for a write operation respectively. The following diagram shows how a buffer is segmented into three areas by the two pointers:

          +-------------------+------------------+------------------+
          | discardable bytes |  readable bytes  |  writable bytes  |
          |                   |     (CONTENT)    |                  |
          +-------------------+------------------+------------------+
          |                   |                  |                  |
          0      <=      readerIndex   <=   writerIndex    <=    capacity
     

    Readable bytes (the actual content)

    This segment is where the actual data is stored. Any operation whose name starts with read or skip will get or skip the data at the current readerIndex and increase it by the number of read bytes. If the argument of the read operation is also a ChannelBuffer and no destination index is specified, the specified buffer's readerIndex is increased together.

    If there's not enough content left, is raised. The default value of newly allocated, wrapped or copied buffer's readerIndex is 0.

     // Iterates the readable bytes of a buffer.
     ChannelBuffer buffer = ...;
     while (buffer.readable()) {
         System.out.println(buffer.readByte());
     }
     

    Writable bytes

    This segment is a undefined space which needs to be filled. Any operation whose name ends with write will write the data at the current writerIndex and increase it by the number of written bytes. If the argument of the write operation is also a ChannelBuffer, and no source index is specified, the specified buffer's readerIndex is increased together.

    If there's not enough writable bytes left, is raised. The default value of newly allocated buffer's writerIndex is 0. The default value of wrapped or copied buffer's writerIndex is the capacity of the buffer.

     // Fills the writable bytes of a buffer with random integers.
     ChannelBuffer buffer = ...;
     while (buffer.writableBytes() >= 4) {
         buffer.writeInt(random.nextInt());
     }
     

    Discardable bytes

    This segment contains the bytes which were read already by a read operation. Initially, the size of this segment is 0, but its size increases up to the writerIndex as read operations are executed. The read bytes can be discarded by calling discardReadBytes() to reclaim unused area as depicted by the following diagram:

      BEFORE discardReadBytes()
    
          +-------------------+------------------+------------------+
          | discardable bytes |  readable bytes  |  writable bytes  |
          +-------------------+------------------+------------------+
          |                   |                  |                  |
          0      <=      readerIndex   <=   writerIndex    <=    capacity
    
    
      AFTER discardReadBytes()
    
          +------------------+--------------------------------------+
          |  readable bytes  |    writable bytes (got more space)   |
          +------------------+--------------------------------------+
          |                  |                                      |
     readerIndex (0) <= writerIndex (decreased)        <=        capacity
     

    Please note that there is no guarantee about the content of writable bytes after calling discardReadBytes(). The writable bytes will not be moved in most cases and could even be filled with completely different data depending on the underlying buffer implementation.

    Clearing the buffer indexes

    You can set both readerIndex and writerIndex to 0 by calling clear(). It does not clear the buffer content (e.g. filling with 0) but just clears the two pointers. Please also note that the semantic of this operation is different from .

      BEFORE clear()
    
          +-------------------+------------------+------------------+
          | discardable bytes |  readable bytes  |  writable bytes  |
          +-------------------+------------------+------------------+
          |                   |                  |                  |
          0      <=      readerIndex   <=   writerIndex    <=    capacity
    
    
      AFTER clear()
    
          +---------------------------------------------------------+
          |             writable bytes (got more space)             |
          +---------------------------------------------------------+
          |                                                         |
          0 = readerIndex = writerIndex            <=            capacity
     

    Mark and reset

    There are two marker indexes in every buffer. One is for storing readerIndex and the other is for storing writerIndex. You can always reposition one of the two indexes by calling a reset method. It works in a similar fashion to the mark and reset methods in except that there's no readlimit.

    Conversion to existing JDK types

    Byte array

    If a ChannelBuffer is backed by a byte array (i.e. byte[]), you can access it directly via the array() method. To determine if a buffer is backed by a byte array, hasArray() should be used.

    NIO Buffers

    Various toByteBuffer() methods convert a ChannelBuffer into one or more NIO buffers. These methods avoid buffer allocation and memory copy whenever possible, but there's no guarantee that memory copy will not be involved.

    I/O Streams

    Please refer to ChannelBufferInputStream and ChannelBufferOutputStream.

        • a non-dynamic buffer will throw an .
        • a dynamic buffer will expand its capacity so that the number of the writable bytes becomes equal to or greater than the specified value. The expansion involves the reallocation of the internal buffer and consequently memory copy.

      • setIndex

        void setIndex​(int readerIndex,
                      int writerIndex)
        Sets the readerIndex and writerIndex of this buffer in one shot. This method is useful when you have to worry about the invocation order of readerIndex(int) and writerIndex(int) methods. For example, the following code will fail:

         // Create a buffer whose readerIndex, writerIndex and capacity are
         // 0, 0 and 8 respectively.
         ChannelBuffer buf = ChannelBuffers.buffer(8);
        
         // IndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown because the specified
         // readerIndex (2) cannot be greater than the current writerIndex (0).
         buf.readerIndex(2);
         buf.writerIndex(4);
         

        The following code will also fail:

         // Create a buffer whose readerIndex, writerIndex and capacity are
         // 0, 8 and 8 respectively.
         ChannelBuffer buf = ChannelBuffers.wrappedBuffer(new
         byte[8]);
        
         // readerIndex becomes 8.
         buf.readLong();
        
         // IndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown because the specified
         // writerIndex (4) cannot be less than the current readerIndex (8).
         buf.writerIndex(4);
         buf.readerIndex(2);
         

        By contrast, setIndex(int, int) guarantees that it never throws an as long as the specified indexes meet basic constraints, regardless what the current index values of the buffer are:

         // No matter what the current state of the buffer is, the following
         // call always succeeds as long as the capacity of the buffer is not
         // less than 4.
         buf.setIndex(2, 4);

                                int length)
