## Class PagedBytes

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.lucene.util.PagedBytes

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    Accountable

      public final class PagedBytes
      extends Object
      implements Accountable

  Represents a logical byte[] as a series of pages. You can write-once into the logical byte[] (append only), using copy, and then retrieve slices (BytesRef) into it using fill.
  NOTE: This API is for internal purposes only and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.

    Constructor and Description
    `PagedBytes(int blockBits)` 1<<blockBits must be bigger than biggest single BytesRef slice that will be pulled

  - ### Method Summary

    `PagedBytes.PagedBytesDataInput` | `getDataInput()` Returns a DataInput to read values from this PagedBytes instance.
    `PagedBytes.PagedBytesDataOutput` | `getDataOutput()` Returns a DataOutput that you may use to write into this PagedBytes instance.
    `long` | `getPointer()`

- - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### PagedBytes

          public PagedBytes(int blockBits)

      1<<blockBits must be bigger than biggest single BytesRef slice that will be pulled

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### copy

          public void copy(IndexInput in,
                           long byteCount)
                    throws IOException

      Read this many bytes from in
      Throws:
        `IOException`

    - #### copy

          public void copy(BytesRef bytes,
                           BytesRef out)

      Copy BytesRef in, setting BytesRef out to the result. Do not use this if you will use freeze(true). This only supports bytes.length <= blockSize

    - #### freeze

          public PagedBytes.Reader freeze(boolean trim)

      Commits final byte[], trimming it if necessary and if trim=true

    - #### getPointer

          public long getPointer()

    - #### ramBytesUsed

          public long ramBytesUsed()

      Description copied from interface: `Accountable`
      Return the memory usage of this object in bytes. Negative values are illegal.
      Specified by:
        `ramBytesUsed` in interface `Accountable`

    - #### copyUsingLengthPrefix

          public long copyUsingLengthPrefix(BytesRef bytes)

      Copy bytes in, writing the length as a 1 or 2 byte vInt prefix.

    - #### getDataInput

          public PagedBytes.PagedBytesDataInput getDataInput()

      Returns a DataInput to read values from this PagedBytes instance.

    - #### getDataOutput

          public PagedBytes.PagedBytesDataOutput getDataOutput()

      Returns a DataOutput that you may use to write into this PagedBytes instance. If you do this, you should not call the other writing methods (eg, copy); results are undefined.
