The
arrayOffset() method of
java.nio.ByteBuffer class is used to return the offset within the given buffer's backing array of the first element of the buffer.
If this buffer is backed by an array then buffer position p corresponds to array index p + arrayOffset().
Invoke the
hasArray method before invoking this method in order to ensure that this buffer has an accessible backing array.
Syntax :
public final int arrayOffset()
Return Value: This method returns the offset within this buffer's array of the first element of the buffer
Exception:: This method throws the
ReadOnlyBufferException, If this buffer is backed by an array but is read-only.
Below are the examples to illustrate the arrayOffset() method:
Example 1:
Output:
ByteBuffer: [20, 30, 40, 50]
arrayOffset: 0
Example 2:
