BufferRecycler (Jackson-core 2.5.0 API)

## Class BufferRecycler

- java.lang.Object
- - com.fasterxml.jackson.core.util.BufferRecycler

-     public class BufferRecycler
      extends Object

  This is a small utility class, whose main functionality is to allow simple reuse of raw byte/char buffers. It is usually used through `ThreadLocal` member of the owning class pointing to instance of this class through a `SoftReference`. The end result is a low-overhead GC-cleanable recycling: hopefully ideal for use by stream readers.

    Fields
    Modifier and Type | Field and Description
    --- | ---
    `protected byte[][]` | `_byteBuffers`
    `protected char[][]` | `_charBuffers`
    `static int` | `BYTE_BASE64_CODEC_BUFFER` Buffer used for concatenating binary data that is either being encoded as base64 output, or decoded from base64 input.
    `static int` | `BYTE_READ_IO_BUFFER` Buffer used for reading byte-based input.
    `static int` | `BYTE_WRITE_CONCAT_BUFFER` Buffer used for temporarily concatenating output; used for example when requesting output as byte array.
    `static int` | `BYTE_WRITE_ENCODING_BUFFER` Buffer used for temporarily storing encoded content; used for example by UTF-8 encoding writer
