(4) The logic in "non-direct" and "non-array backed" case is incorrect, both deflater and inflater.
     ...
        } else {
            final byte[] tmparray = new byte[rem];
            bbuffer.get(tmparray);
            result = deflate(tmparray, pos, rem, flush);
        }

The bbuffer here is not a "input" buffer but an output buffer to hold the compressed/uncompressed output data. So the implementation should be (1) create a temporary array with the size of rem (2) pass the temporary array into deflate/inflate (3) copy the "result" number of byte from the temporary
array into bbuffer (4) return "result"

Hi Martin,

Thanks for taking on this one. Here are my comments after first scan

(1) Upon return, the position of the ByteBuffer should not always be updated to the "limit". It should depend on the number of bytes really compressed/de-compressed. Like the buffer at ReadableByteChannel.read(buffer).

(2) The implementation of the native buffer version and non-buffer version probably can share most of their
code in a separated method

(3) The input part will be tough. I was struggling with if we should have a totally separated subclass, like DeflaterBuffer/InfalterBuffer (or BufferDefalter/Inflater) to only handle everything in ByteBuffer with methods handles buffer input and output, throw "not supported operation" for those "byte[]" methods. Otherwise you will have to put something in the specification to mandate the behavior of mixed bytebuff
and byte[] scenario. I'm not sure which way is more appropriate though.

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.

Feedback is welcome.
