The array() method of java.nio.IntBuffer Class is used to Return the int array that backs this buffer. Modifications to this buffer’s content will cause the returned array’s content to be modified, and vice versa. Invoke() the hasArray() method are used before invoking this method in order to ensure that this buffer has an accessible backing array
Syntax:
public final int[] array()
Return Value: This method returns the array that backs this buffer.
Exception: This method throws the ReadOnlyBufferException(If this buffer is backed by an array but is read-only)
Below program illustrates the array() method:
Examples 1:
// Java program to demonstrate// array() method import java.nio.*;import java.util.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // Declaring the capacity of the IntBuffer int capacity = 10; // Creating the IntBuffer try { // creating object of Intbuffer // and allocating size capacity IntBuffer ib = IntBuffer.allocate(capacity); // putting the value in Intbuffer ib.put(7); ib.put(2, 6); ib.rewind(); // getting array from ib IntBuffer using array() method int[] ibb = ib.array(); // printing the IntBuffer ib System.out.println("IntBuffer: " + Arrays.toString(ibb)); } catch (IllegalArgumentException e) { System.out.println("IllegalArgumentException catched"); } catch (ReadOnlyBufferException e) { System.out.println("ReadOnlyBufferException catched"); } }} |
Output:
IntBuffer: [7, 0, 6, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]
Examples 2:
// Java program to demonstrate// array() method import java.nio.*;import java.util.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // Declaring the capacity of the ib int capacity1 = 10; // Declaring the capacity of the ib1 int capacity2 = 5; // Creating the IntBuffer try { // // ib // // creating object of Intbuffer ib // and allocating size capacity IntBuffer ib = IntBuffer.allocate(capacity1); // putting the value in ib ib.put(7); ib.put(2, 6); ib.put(3, 7); ib.rewind(); // print the IntBuffer System.out.println("IntBuffer ib: " + Arrays.toString(ib.array())); // // ib1 // // creating object of Intbuffer ib1 // and allocating size capacity IntBuffer ib1 = IntBuffer.allocate(capacity2); // putting the value in ib1 ib1.put(1, 4); ib1.put(2, 6); ib1.rewind(); // print the IntBuffer System.out.println("\nIntBuffer ib1: " + Arrays.toString(ib1.array())); // Creating a read-only copy of IntBuffer // using asReadOnlyBuffer() method IntBuffer readOnlyib = ib.asReadOnlyBuffer(); // print the IntBuffer System.out.print("\nReadOnlyBuffer IntBuffer: "); while (readOnlyib.hasRemaining()) System.out.print(readOnlyib.get() + ", "); // try to change readOnlyib System.out.println("\n\nTrying to get the array" + " from ReadOnlyib for editing"); int[] ibarr = readOnlyib.array(); } catch (IllegalArgumentException e) { System.out.println("IllegalArgumentException catched"); } catch (ReadOnlyBufferException e) { System.out.println("Exception thrown: " + e); } }} |
Output:
IntBuffer ib: [7, 0, 6, 7, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0] IntBuffer ib1: [0, 4, 6, 0, 0] ReadOnlyBuffer IntBuffer: 7, 0, 6, 7, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, Trying to get the array from ReadOnlyib for editing Exception thrown: java.nio.ReadOnlyBufferException
