A simple byte[] portability.

/** * A simple {@code byte[]} portability. * * @author Chris Dennis */
public class ByteArrayPortability implements Portability<byte[]> { public static final ByteArrayPortability INSTANCE = new ByteArrayPortability(); protected ByteArrayPortability() { //singleton } @Override public ByteBuffer encode(byte[] object) { return ByteBuffer.wrap(object); } @Override public byte[] decode(ByteBuffer buffer) { byte[] data = new byte[buffer.remaining()]; buffer.get(data); return data; }
Byte arrays do not have a content-based equals method so this throws UnsupportedOperationException.

The lack of any implementation only prevents this portability being used as a key portability. Using byte arrays as keys in map would be extremely questionable in any case. If necessary this portability could be sub-classed to do deep array comparison.
