ByteBuffer asReadOnlyBuffer() method in Java
A read-only byte buffer can be created using the contents of a buffer with the method asReadOnlyBuffer() in the class java.nio.ByteBuffer. The new buffer cannot have any modifications as it is a read-only buffer. However, the capacity, positions, limits etc. of the new buffer are the same as the previous buffer.
A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −
Example
import java.nio.*; import java.util.*; public class Demo { public static void main(String[] args) { int n = 5; try { ByteBuffer buffer = ByteBuffer.allocate(5); buffer.put((byte) 1); buffer.put((byte) 2); buffer.put((byte) 3); buffer.put((byte) 4); buffer.put((byte) 5); buffer.rewind(); System.out.println("The Original ByteBuffer is: " + Arrays.toString(buffer.array())); ByteBuffer roBuffer = buffer.asReadOnlyBuffer(); System.out.println("The ReadOnlyBuffer ByteBuffer is: "); while (roBuffer.hasRemaining()) System.out.print(roBuffer.get() + " "); } catch (IllegalArgumentException e) { System.out.println("Error!!! IllegalArgumentException"); } catch (ReadOnlyBufferException e) { System.out.println("Error!!! ReadOnlyBufferException"); } } }
Output
The Original ByteBuffer is: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] The ReadOnlyBuffer ByteBuffer is: 1 2 3 4 5
