首先我们来回顾一下 java.nio.ByteBuffe r的内部结构设计。
ByteBuffer 内部持有一个 byte[] bt, 再加上 position、limit、capacity、mark 四个属性。
下面主要举例说明一下 ByteBuffer 的存储。
ByteBuffer bf = ByteBuffer.alloct(10);
bf.put( (byte)"h" );
bf.put( (byte)"e" );
bf.put( (byte)"l" );
bf.put( (byte)"l" );
bf.put( (byte)"o" );
将产生下图的结构:
那我们怎么从这个 ByteBuffer 中读取数据呢?如果调用 get 方法将会读出位置为5的数据,无法读取到 hello, 需要将 ByteBuffer 翻转,从写模式切换到读模式。
ByteBuffer 提供了一个方法 flip 方法,翻转缓存区,其如下如下:
bf.limit = bf.postion;
bf.positioin = 0;
关于 ByteBuffer 更多知识,建议下载一本电子书(《java NIO 中文版》)
为了简化缓存区的读、写的操作, Netty ByteBuf 引入了两个位置属性,readIndex,writeIndex,来取代position。这样就不需要在读、写之间切换了。其结构设计如下:
discardable bytes 区域是可以使用 discardReadBytes() 方法,将 readables bytes 丢弃,然后将 readable bytes 移动到 byte 数组的开始处,这也相当于 ByteBuffer的compact()方法(压缩),但这会产生缓存区内部元素的移动,会降低性能。
由于引入了 writerIndex, limit 属性不需要了。
上述简单介绍了ByteBuffer、ByteBuf 数据的内部存储,这对我们正确使用缓存区至关重要。
现阶段主要描述一下主要类的作用。
顺序读写API(read、write) 相关API,会移动对应的读写指针,而随机访问API(get、put)相关API并不会改变读写指针。
