FloatBuffer hasArray() method in Java


It can be checked if a buffer has the backing of an accessible float array by using the method hasArray() in the class java.nio.FloatBuffer. This method returns true if the buffer has the backing of an accessible float array and false otherwise.

A program that demonstrates this is given as follows −

Example

 Live Demo

import java.nio.*;
import java.util.*;
public class Demo {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      int n = 5;
      try {
         FloatBuffer buffer = FloatBuffer.allocate(5);
         buffer.put(4.5F);
         buffer.put(1.2F);
         buffer.put(3.9F);
         buffer.put(7.5F);
         buffer.put(5.8F);
         buffer.rewind();
         System.out.println("The FloatBuffer is: " + Arrays.toString(buffer.array()));
         boolean flag = buffer.hasArray();
         if (flag)
            System.out.println("The FloatBuffer is backed by an array");
         else
            System.out.println("The FloatBuffer is not backed by any array");
      } catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
         System.out.println("Error!!! IllegalArgumentException");
      } catch (ReadOnlyBufferException e) {
         System.out.println("Error!!! ReadOnlyBufferException");
      }
   }
}

The output of the above program is as follows −

Output

The FloatBuffer is: [4.5, 1.2, 3.9, 7.5, 5.8]
The FloatBuffer is backed by an array
