/**
 * A random and sequential accessible sequence of zero or more bytes (octets).
 * This interface provides an abstract view for one or more primitive byte
 * arrays ({@code byte[]}) and {@linkplain ByteBuffer NIO buffers}.
 *
 * 

Creation of a buffer

* * It is recommended to create a new buffer using the helper methods in * {@link Unpooled} rather than calling an individual implementation's * constructor. * *

Random Access Indexing

* * Just like an ordinary primitive byte array, {@link ByteBuf} uses * zero-based indexing. * It means the index of the first byte is always {@code 0} and the index of the last byte is * always {@link #capacity() capacity - 1}. For example, to iterate all bytes of a buffer, you * can do the following, regardless of its internal implementation: * *
 * {@link ByteBuf} buffer = ...;
 * for (int i = 0; i < buffer.capacity(); i ++) {
 *     byte b = buffer.getByte(i);
 *     System.out.println((char) b);
 * }
 * 
* *

Sequential Access Indexing

* * {@link ByteBuf} provides two pointer variables to support sequential * read and write operations - {@link #readerIndex() readerIndex} for a read * operation and {@link #writerIndex() writerIndex} for a write operation * respectively. The following diagram shows how a buffer is segmented into * three areas by the two pointers: * *
 *      +-------------------+------------------+------------------+
 *      | discardable bytes |  readable bytes  |  writable bytes  |
 *      |                   |     (CONTENT)    |                  |
 *      +-------------------+------------------+------------------+
 *      |                   |                  |                  |
 *      0      <=      readerIndex   <=   writerIndex    <=    capacity
 * 
* *

Readable bytes (the actual content)

* * This segment is where the actual data is stored. Any operation whose name * starts with {@code read} or {@code skip} will get or skip the data at the * current {@link #readerIndex() readerIndex} and increase it by the number of * read bytes. If the argument of the read operation is also a * {@link ByteBuf} and no destination index is specified, the specified * buffer's {@link #writerIndex() writerIndex} is increased together. *

* If there's not enough content left, {@link IndexOutOfBoundsException} is * raised. The default value of newly allocated, wrapped or copied buffer's * {@link #readerIndex() readerIndex} is {@code 0}. * *

 * // Iterates the readable bytes of a buffer.
 * {@link ByteBuf} buffer = ...;
 * while (buffer.isReadable()) {
 *     System.out.println(buffer.readByte());
 * }
 * 
* *

Writable bytes

* * This segment is a undefined space which needs to be filled. Any operation * whose name starts with {@code write} will write the data at the current * {@link #writerIndex() writerIndex} and increase it by the number of written * bytes. If the argument of the write operation is also a {@link ByteBuf}, * and no source index is specified, the specified buffer's * {@link #readerIndex() readerIndex} is increased together. *

* If there's not enough writable bytes left, {@link IndexOutOfBoundsException} * is raised. The default value of newly allocated buffer's * {@link #writerIndex() writerIndex} is {@code 0}. The default value of * wrapped or copied buffer's {@link #writerIndex() writerIndex} is the * {@link #capacity() capacity} of the buffer. * *

 * // Fills the writable bytes of a buffer with random integers.
 * {@link ByteBuf} buffer = ...;
 * while (buffer.maxWritableBytes() >= 4) {
 *     buffer.writeInt(random.nextInt());
 * }
 * 
* *

Discardable bytes

* * This segment contains the bytes which were read already by a read operation. * Initially, the size of this segment is {@code 0}, but its size increases up * to the {@link #writerIndex() writerIndex} as read operations are executed. * The read bytes can be discarded by calling {@link #discardReadBytes()} to * reclaim unused area as depicted by the following diagram: * *
 *  BEFORE discardReadBytes()
 *
 *      +-------------------+------------------+------------------+
 *      | discardable bytes |  readable bytes  |  writable bytes  |
 *      +-------------------+------------------+------------------+
 *      |                   |                  |                  |
 *      0      <=      readerIndex   <=   writerIndex    <=    capacity
 *
 *
 *  AFTER discardReadBytes()
 *
 *      +------------------+--------------------------------------+
 *      |  readable bytes  |    writable bytes (got more space)   |
 *      +------------------+--------------------------------------+
 *      |                  |                                      |
 * readerIndex (0) <= writerIndex (decreased)        <=        capacity
 * 
* * Please note that there is no guarantee about the content of writable bytes * after calling {@link #discardReadBytes()}. The writable bytes will not be * moved in most cases and could even be filled with completely different data * depending on the underlying buffer implementation. * *

Clearing the buffer indexes

* * You can set both {@link #readerIndex() readerIndex} and * {@link #writerIndex() writerIndex} to {@code 0} by calling {@link #clear()}. * It does not clear the buffer content (e.g. filling with {@code 0}) but just * clears the two pointers. Please also note that the semantic of this * operation is different from {@link ByteBuffer#clear()}. * *
 *  BEFORE clear()
 *
 *      +-------------------+------------------+------------------+
 *      | discardable bytes |  readable bytes  |  writable bytes  |
 *      +-------------------+------------------+------------------+
 *      |                   |                  |                  |
 *      0      <=      readerIndex   <=   writerIndex    <=    capacity
 *
 *
 *  AFTER clear()
 *
 *      +---------------------------------------------------------+
 *      |             writable bytes (got more space)             |
 *      +---------------------------------------------------------+
 *      |                                                         |
 *      0 = readerIndex = writerIndex            <=            capacity
 * 
* *

Search operations

* * For simple single-byte searches, use {@link #indexOf(int, int, byte)} and {@link #bytesBefore(int, int, byte)}. * {@link #bytesBefore(byte)} is especially useful when you deal with a {@code NUL}-terminated string. * For complicated searches, use {@link #forEachByte(int, int, ByteProcessor)} with a {@link ByteProcessor} * implementation. * *

Mark and reset

* * There are two marker indexes in every buffer. One is for storing * {@link #readerIndex() readerIndex} and the other is for storing * {@link #writerIndex() writerIndex}. You can always reposition one of the * two indexes by calling a reset method. It works in a similar fashion to * the mark and reset methods in {@link InputStream} except that there's no * {@code readlimit}. * *

Derived buffers

* * You can create a view of an existing buffer by calling one of the following methods: *
    *
  • {@link #duplicate()}
  • *
  • {@link #slice()}
  • *
  • {@link #slice(int, int)}
  • *
  • {@link #readSlice(int)}
  • *
  • {@link #retainedDuplicate()}
  • *
  • {@link #retainedSlice()}
  • *
  • {@link #retainedSlice(int, int)}
  • *
  • {@link #readRetainedSlice(int)}
  • *
* A derived buffer will have an independent {@link #readerIndex() readerIndex}, * {@link #writerIndex() writerIndex} and marker indexes, while it shares * other internal data representation, just like a NIO buffer does. *

* In case a completely fresh copy of an existing buffer is required, please * call {@link #copy()} method instead. * *

Non-retained and retained derived buffers

* * Note that the {@link #duplicate()}, {@link #slice()}, {@link #slice(int, int)} and {@link #readSlice(int)} does NOT * call {@link #retain()} on the returned derived buffer, and thus its reference count will NOT be increased. If you * need to create a derived buffer with increased reference count, consider using {@link #retainedDuplicate()}, * {@link #retainedSlice()}, {@link #retainedSlice(int, int)} and {@link #readRetainedSlice(int)} which may return * a buffer implementation that produces less garbage. * *

Conversion to existing JDK types

* *

Byte array

* * If a {@link ByteBuf} is backed by a byte array (i.e. {@code byte[]}), * you can access it directly via the {@link #array()} method. To determine * if a buffer is backed by a byte array, {@link #hasArray()} should be used. * *

NIO Buffers

* * If a {@link ByteBuf} can be converted into an NIO {@link ByteBuffer} which shares its * content (i.e. view buffer), you can get it via the {@link #nioBuffer()} method. To determine * if a buffer can be converted into an NIO buffer, use {@link #nioBufferCount()}. * *

Strings

* * Various {@link #toString(Charset)} methods convert a {@link ByteBuf} * into a {@link String}. Please note that {@link #toString()} is not a * conversion method. * *
