Buffer reset();
Clears this buffer. The position is set to zero, the limit is set to the capacity, and the mark is discarded.

Invoke this method before using a sequence of channel-read or put operations to fill this buffer. For example:

buf.clear(); // Prepare buffer for reading
in.read(buf); // Read data

This method does not actually erase the data in the buffer, but it is named as if it did because it will most often be used in situations in which that might as well be the case.

Returns:This buffer

Buffer clear();
Flips this buffer. The limit is set to the current position and then the position is set to zero. If the mark is defined then it is discarded.

After a sequence of channel-read or put operations, invoke this method to prepare for a sequence of channel-write or relative get operations. For example:

buf.put(magic); // Prepend header
in.read(buf); // Read data into rest of buffer
buf.flip(); // Flip buffer
out.write(buf); // Write header + data to channel

This method is often used in conjunction with the compact method when transferring data from one place to another.

Buffer flip();
Rewinds this buffer. The position is set to zero and the mark is discarded.

Invoke this method before a sequence of channel-write or get operations, assuming that the limit has already been set appropriately. For example:

out.write(buf); // Write remaining data
buf.rewind(); // Rewind buffer
buf.get(array); // Copy data into array
Returns:This buffer

Returns:true if, and only if, there is at least one element remaining in this buffer
/** * Tells whether there are any elements between the current position and the limit. * * @return <tt>true</tt> if, and only if, there is at least one element remaining in this buffer */

Creates a new Buffer whose content is a shared subsequence of this buffer's content.

The content of the new buffer will start at passed position and end at passed limit. Changes to this buffer's content will be visible in the new buffer, and vice versa; the two buffer's position, limit, and mark values will be independent.

The new buffer's position will be zero, its capacity and its limit will be the number of bytes remaining in this buffer, and its mark will be undefined. The new buffer will be direct if, and only if, this buffer is direct, and it will be read-only if, and only if, this buffer is read-only.

Creates a new Buffer that shares this buffer's content.

The content of the new buffer will be that of this buffer. Changes to this buffer's content will be visible in the new buffer, and vice versa; the two buffer's position, limit, and mark values will be independent.

Buffer duplicate();
Creates a new, read-only Buffer that shares this buffer's content.

The content of the new buffer will be that of this buffer. Changes to this buffer's content will be visible in the new buffer; the new buffer itself, however, will be read-only and will not allow the shared content to be modified. The two buffer's position, limit, and mark values will be independent.

This method transfers the bytes remaining in the given source buffer into this buffer. If there are more bytes remaining in the source buffer than in this buffer, that is, if src.remaining() > remaining(), then no bytes are transferred and a BufferOverflowException is thrown.

This method transfers bytes into this buffer from the given source array. If there are more bytes to be copied from the array than remain in this buffer, that is, if length > remaining(), then no bytes are transferred and a BufferOverflowException is thrown.

Otherwise, this method copies length bytes from the given array into this buffer, starting at the given offset in the array and at the current position of this buffer. The position of this buffer is then incremented by length.

Relative bulk put method  (optional operation).

This method transfers bytes into this buffer from the given 8-bit source String. If the source String.length() is bigger than this buffer's remaining, that is, if length() > remaining(), then no bytes are transferred and a BufferOverflowException is thrown.

Otherwise, this method copies length bytes from the given String into this buffer.

@SuppressWarnings("UnusedDeclaration") Buffer put8BitString(String s);
Compacts this buffer  (optional operation).

The bytes between the buffer's current position and its limit, if any, are copied to the beginning of the buffer. That is, the byte at index p = position() is copied to index zero, the byte at index p + 1 is copied to index one, and so forth until the byte at index limit() - 1 is copied to index n = limit() - 1 - p. The buffer's position is then set to n+1 and its limit is set to its capacity. The mark, if defined, is discarded.

The buffer's position is set to the number of bytes copied, rather than to zero, so that an invocation of this method can be followed immediately by an invocation of another relative put method.

Invoke this method after writing data from a buffer in case the write was incomplete. The following loop, for example, copies bytes from one channel to another via the buffer buf:

buf.clear(); // Prepare buffer for use
for (;;) {
    if (in.read(buf) < 0 && !buf.hasRemaining())
        break; // No more bytes to transfer
    buf.flip();
    out.write(buf);
    buf.compact(); // In case of partial write
}

Converts this Buffer to a ByteBuffer. If this Buffer is not composite - then returned ByteBuffer's content is a shared subsequence of this buffer's content, with CompositeBuffer this is not guaranteed. The position of the returned ByteBuffer is not guaranteed to be 0, the capacity of the returned ByteBuffer is not guaranteed to be equal to the capacity of this Buffer. It is guaranteed that the result of the returned ByteBuffer's Buffer.remaining() call will be equal to this Buffer's remaining() call. The Buffer's and ByteBuffer's position, limit, and mark values are not guaranteed to be independent, so it's recommended to save and restore position, limit values if it is planned to change them or ByteBuffer.slice() the returned ByteBuffer.

Returns:this Buffer as a ByteBuffer.
