Class IIOByteBuffer
- java.lang.Object
 -  
- javax.imageio.stream.IIOByteBuffer
 
 
public class IIOByteBuffer extends Object
A class representing a mutable reference to an array of bytes and an offset and length within that array. IIOByteBuffer is used by ImageInputStream to supply a sequence of bytes to the caller, possibly with fewer copies than using the conventional read methods that take a user-supplied byte array. 
 The byte array referenced by an IIOByteBuffer will generally be part of an internal data structure belonging to an ImageReader implementation; its contents should be considered read-only and must not be modified.

IIOByteBuffer
public IIOByteBuffer(byte[] data,
                     int offset,
                     int length) Constructs an IIOByteBuffer that references a given byte array, offset, and length.
- Parameters:
 - 
data- a byte array. - 
offset- an int offset within the array. - 
length- an int specifying the length of the data of interest within byte array, in bytes. 
Method Detail
getData
public byte[] getData()
Returns a reference to the byte array. The returned value should be treated as read-only, and only the portion specified by the values of getOffset and getLength should be used.
- Returns:
 - a byte array reference.
 - See Also:
 - 
getOffset(),getLength(),setData(byte[]) 
setData
public void setData(byte[] data)
Updates the array reference that will be returned by subsequent calls to the getData method.
- Parameters:
 - 
data- a byte array reference containing the new data value. - See Also:
 getData()
getOffset
public int getOffset()
Returns the offset within the byte array returned by getData at which the data of interest start.
- Returns:
 - an int offset.
 - See Also:
 - 
getData(),getLength(),setOffset(int) 
setOffset
public void setOffset(int offset)
Updates the value that will be returned by subsequent calls to the getOffset method.
- Parameters:
 - 
offset- an int containing the new offset value. - See Also:
 getOffset()
getLength
public int getLength()
Returns the length of the data of interest within the byte array returned by getData.
- Returns:
 - an int length.
 - See Also:
 - 
getData(),getOffset(),setLength(int) 
setLength
public void setLength(int length)
Updates the value that will be returned by subsequent calls to the getLength method.
- Parameters:
 - 
length- an int containing the new length value. - See Also:
 getLength()
