IntBuffer array() method in Java

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:

            // getting array from ib IntBuffer using array() method
            int[] ibb = ib.array();
  
            // printing the IntBuffer ib
            System.out.println("IntBuffer:  "
                               + Arrays.toString(ibb));

            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]
