Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
ReadableByteChannel	getChannel() Returns a channel with the representation's content. If it is supported by a file, a read-only instance of FileChannel is returned. This method is ensured to return a fresh channel for each invocation unless it is a transient representation, in which case null is returned.
void	setChannel(ReadableByteChannel channel) Sets the readable channel.
void	write(WritableByteChannel writableChannel) Writes the representation to a byte channel.
