Description

Flip the ByteBuffer to fill mode.

Demo Code

     * The position is set to the first unused position in the buffer
     * (the old limit) and the limit is set to the capacity.
     * If the buffer is empty, then this call is effectively {@link #clearToFill(ByteBuffer)}.
     * If there is no unused space to fill, a {@link ByteBuffer#compact()} is done to attempt
     * to create space.//from  w w w. j av a 2s . c  o m
     * <p>
     * This method is used as a replacement to {@link ByteBuffer#compact()}.
     *
     * @param buffer The buffer to flip
     * @return The position of the valid data before the flipped position. This value should be
     * passed to a subsequent call to {@link #flipToFlush(ByteBuffer, int)}
