No, Payload has this ctr: public Payload(byte[] data, int offset, int length); So the same byte[] array can currently be used for multiple Payloads. A TokenFilter can get the Payload object from the Token, but it can't access the reference of the underlying byte[] array. It can however use one of the following methods to access the payload data: public byte byteAt(int index); public byte[] toByteArray(); public void copyTo(byte[] target, int targetOffset); So this way currently a TokenFilter can replace an existing payload, but it can't get write access to the byte[] array from the caller. -Michael --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
