Hi, I'm interested in contribute some work to openJdk. I found the Sun BUG: 6341887 "Inflater.setInput(), Inflater.inflate() can't handle ByteBuffer".
After digging a little in the mailing archives I found nothing. I've coded the first step towards ByteBuffer support. The webrev below supports ByteBuffer for Inflater's and Deflater's output methods. Depending on your comments I would like to go the last step later on. I've in mind, to implement ByteBuffer support for input methods also, using the same approach like ByteBuffer uses. When using direct ByteBuffer for input, you must also use it for output. Same as ByteBuffer#hasArray(). So developers have to use byte arrays or ByteBuffers, but not mixing them.
