Method Detail

copy

public static void copy(float[] src,
                        java.nio.Buffer dst,
                        int numFloats,
                        int offset)

Copies numFloats floats from src starting at offset to dst. Dst is assumed to be a direct Buffer. The method will crash if that is not the case. The position and limit of the buffer are ignored, the copy is placed at position 0 in the buffer. After the copying process the position of the buffer is set to 0 and its limit is set to numFloats * 4 if it is a ByteBuffer and numFloats if it is a FloatBuffer. In case the Buffer is neither a ByteBuffer nor a FloatBuffer the limit is not set. This is an expert method, use at your own risk.

Parameters:

src - the source array

dst - the destination buffer, has to be a direct Buffer

numFloats - the number of floats to copy

offset - the offset in src to start copying from

newDoubleBuffer

public static java.nio.DoubleBuffer newDoubleBuffer(int numDoubles)

newByteBuffer

public static java.nio.ByteBuffer newByteBuffer(int numBytes)

newShortBuffer

public static java.nio.ShortBuffer newShortBuffer(int numShorts)

newCharBuffer

public static java.nio.CharBuffer newCharBuffer(int numChars)

disposeUnsafeByteBuffer

public static void disposeUnsafeByteBuffer(java.nio.ByteBuffer buffer)

isUnsafeByteBuffer

public static boolean isUnsafeByteBuffer(java.nio.ByteBuffer buffer)

newUnsafeByteBuffer

public static java.nio.ByteBuffer newUnsafeByteBuffer(int numBytes)

Allocates a new direct ByteBuffer from native heap memory using the native byte order. Needs to be disposed with disposeUnsafeByteBuffer(ByteBuffer).

getUnsafeBufferAddress

public static long getUnsafeBufferAddress(java.nio.Buffer buffer)

Returns the address of the Buffer, it assumes it is an unsafe buffer.

Parameters:

buffer - The Buffer to ask the address for.

Returns:

the address of the Buffer.

newUnsafeByteBuffer

public static java.nio.ByteBuffer newUnsafeByteBuffer(java.nio.ByteBuffer buffer)

Registers the given ByteBuffer as an unsafe ByteBuffer. The ByteBuffer must have been allocated in native code, pointing to a memory region allocated via malloc. Needs to be disposed with disposeUnsafeByteBuffer(ByteBuffer).

Parameters:

buffer - the ByteBuffer to register

Returns:

the ByteBuffer passed to the method

getAllocatedBytesUnsafe

public static int getAllocatedBytesUnsafe()

Returns:

the number of bytes allocated with newUnsafeByteBuffer(int)

clear

public static void clear(java.nio.ByteBuffer buffer,
                         int numBytes)

Writes the specified number of zeros to the buffer. This is generally faster than reallocating a new buffer.
