Hello, I'm currently trying to port a Java JRE6 program into Google Android platform. This program uses NIO buffers to read data from a binary file. It needs to read byte and short from the file.
With standard JRE6, I could "navigate" throught the memory mapped data using thoses kind of code : final FileInputStream fis = .... final FileChannel channel = fis.getChannel(); byteBuffer = channel.map(MapMode.READ_ONLY, 0, channel.size()); // Read some bytes. byteBuffer.get(); byteBuffer.get(array); OK, this seems to work well too on Google Android. But problems start to happen when I need to read short values after reading byte values from the buffer. When, in JRE6 platform, I do : // Read a short value byteBuffer.asShortBuffer().get(); I successfully retrieve the first short value at the corresponding position from byteBuffer. Eg, if byteBuffer is at position 10, then it reads two bytes (pos 11 and 12) and computes then as a short. That's the standard functionnality. But with Google Android, it doesn't seem to work that way. The same code doesn't produce the same output : // Read a short value byteBuffer.asShortBuffer().get(); The "byteBuffer.asShortBuffer()" successfully returns a ShortBuffer, but position seems to be lost in the creation of the ShortBuffer. Eg, if position in byteBuffer was 10, the position of ShortBuffer is actually 0. So when I read a short value from this ShortBuffer, it actually read the two first bytes of the stream (0 and 1) instead of reading bytes at position 11 and 12 as the normal JRE6 does. Thus, each time I want to read a short value, either I must use the ByteBuffer and computes by myself two bytes into one short, either I use the "asShortBuffer" method but then I have to compute myself the right position into the new buffer, thing I didn't have to make with JRE6. Is that a bug or a normal thing with Android ?
