SBE / DirectBuffer stupid question

[Andre Mermegas]

Hi All,

apologies in advance for a stupid API question..

But, how does one go from:

ByteBuffer bb = ByteBuffer.allocateDirect(1024);
UnsafeBuffer encodeBuffer = new UnsafeBuffer(bb);

...encoder.wrap(.....)....etc...

to byte[] ?

I've tried a couple things but no luck.

encodeBuffer.byteArray(); only works for heap based buffers

thanks!

You can't without a copy.

byte[] data = new byte[encodeBuffer.capacity()]

encodeBuffer.getBytes(0, data);

Mike.

You can start with a byte[] and encode directly into that.

byte[] bytes = new byte[LENGTH];

UnsafeBuffer encodeBuffer = new UnsafeBuffer(bytes);
