[jira] [Resolved] (DIRMINA-210) Investigate removal of static methods in ByteBuffer

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRMINA-210?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Emmanuel Lecharny resolved DIRMINA-210.
---------------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix

Static allocator in ByteBuffer or in IoBuffer have been around for 8 years now. Nobody complained about it, and I don't see how exposing the allocator can bring a lot of added value at this point.

For MINA 2, at least, I think it would be insane to change that. For MINA 3, this can be discussed.

> The removal of the static methods in ByteBuffer should be investigated. 
> Since the ByteBufferAllocator exists, that interface could be used directly. For backwards compatibility ( and simple cases ), the static methods could be retained and use a supplied instance. 
> Potentially, the MINA internals could all access buffers via the allocator, leaving only user-code to use the optional static methods (after statically supplying the allocator).
