Class PooledByteBufferAllocator

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.mina.common.PooledByteBufferAllocator

All Implemented Interfaces:

ByteBufferAllocator

public class PooledByteBufferAllocator
extends Object
implements ByteBufferAllocator

A ByteBufferAllocator which pools allocated buffers.

All buffers are allocated with the size of power of 2 (e.g. 16, 32, 64, ...) This means that you cannot simply assume that the actual capacity of the buffer and the capacity you requested are same.

This allocator releases the buffers which have not been in use for a certain period. You can adjust the period by calling setTimeout(int). The default timeout is 1 minute (60 seconds). To release these buffers periodically, a daemon thread is started when a new instance of the allocator is created. You can stop the thread by calling dispose().

Constructor Summary

PooledByteBufferAllocator()
Creates a new instance with the default timeout.

PooledByteBufferAllocator(int timeout)
Creates a new instance with the specified timeout.

Method Summary

ByteBuffer	allocate(int capacity, boolean direct) Returns the buffer which is capable of the specified size.
void	dispose() Stops the thread which releases unused buffers and make this allocator unusable from now on.
int	getTimeout() Returns the timeout value of this allocator in seconds.
long	getTimeoutMillis() Returns the timeout value of this allocator in milliseconds.
void	setTimeout(int timeout) Sets the timeout value of this allocator in seconds.
ByteBuffer	wrap(ByteBuffer nioBuffer) Wraps the specified NIO ByteBuffer into MINA buffer.

Specified by:

dispose in interface ByteBufferAllocator

getTimeout

public int getTimeout()

Returns the timeout value of this allocator in seconds.

getTimeoutMillis

public long getTimeoutMillis()

Returns the timeout value of this allocator in milliseconds.

setTimeout

public void setTimeout(int timeout)

Sets the timeout value of this allocator in seconds.

Parameters:

timeout - 0 or negative value to disable timeout.

allocate

public ByteBuffer allocate(int capacity,
                           boolean direct)

Description copied from interface: ByteBufferAllocator

Returns the buffer which is capable of the specified size.

Specified by:

allocate in interface ByteBufferAllocator

Parameters:

capacity - the capacity of the buffer

direct - true to get a direct buffer, false to get a heap buffer.

wrap

public ByteBuffer wrap(ByteBuffer nioBuffer)

Description copied from interface: ByteBufferAllocator

Wraps the specified NIO ByteBuffer into MINA buffer.

Specified by:

wrap in interface ByteBufferAllocator
