ByteBuffer hasArray() method in Java with Examples
Last Updated :
17 Jun, 2019
The
hasArray() method of
java.nio.ByteBuffer class is used to ensure whether or not the given buffer is backed by an accessible byte array. It returns true if there is an accessible backing array to this buffer, else it returns false. If this method returns true, then the array() and arrayOffset() methods may safely be invoked, as they work on the backing array.
Syntax:
public final boolean hasArray()
Returns: This method will return
true if, and only if, this buffer is backed by an array and is not read-only. Else it returns
false.
Below are the examples to illustrate the
hasArray() method:
Examples 1: When the buffer is backed by an array
Java
// Java program to demonstrate
// hasArray() method
import java.nio.*;
import java.util.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
// Declaring the capacity of the ByteBuffer
int capacity = 10;
// Creating the ByteBuffer
try {
// creating object of bytebuffer
// and allocating size capacity
ByteBuffer bb = ByteBuffer.allocate(capacity);
// putting the value in bytebuffer
bb.put((byte)10);
bb.put((byte)20);
bb.rewind();
// checking FloatBuffer fb is backed by array or not
boolean isArray = bb.hasArray();
// checking if else condition
if (isArray)
System.out.println("ByteBuffer bb is"
+ " backed by array");
else
System.out.println("ByteBuffer bb is"
+ " not backed by any array");
}
catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
System.out.println("IllegalArgumentException catched");
}
catch (ReadOnlyBufferException e) {
System.out.println("ReadOnlyBufferException catched");
}
}
}
Output:
ByteBuffer bb is backed by array
Examples 2: When the buffer is backed by an array
Java
// Java program to demonstrate
// hasArray() method
import java.nio.*;
import java.util.*;
public class GFG {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
// Declaring the capacity of the ByteBuffer
int capacity = 10;
// Creating the ByteBuffer
try {
// creating object of ByteBuffer
// and allocating size capacity
ByteBuffer bb = ByteBuffer.allocate(capacity);
// putting the value in ByteBuffer
bb.put((byte)8.56F);
bb.put((byte)10);
bb.rewind();
// Creating a read-only copy of ByteBuffer
// using asReadOnlyBuffer() method
ByteBuffer bb1 = bb.asReadOnlyBuffer();
// checking ByteBuffer bb is backed by array or not
boolean isArray = bb1.hasArray();
// checking if else condition
if (isArray)
System.out.println("ByteBuffer bb is"
+ " backed by array");
else
System.out.println("ByteBuffer bb is"
+ " not backed by any array");
}
catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
System.out.println("IllegalArgumentException catched");
}
catch (ReadOnlyBufferException e) {
System.out.println("ReadOnlyBufferException catched");
}
}
}
Output:
ByteBuffer bb is not backed by any array
