Netty源码之解码中两种数据积累器（Cumulator）的区别

　　上一篇随笔中已经介绍了解码核心工作流程，里面有个数据积累器的存在（Cumulator），其实解码中有两种Cumulator，那他们的区别是什么呢？

还是先打开ByteToMessageDecoder的channelRead();

点进去查看cumulate()实现

 

又是一个抽象方法，看实现不难发现它有两种实现方式

 

两种实现分别为：MERGE_CUMULATOR（默认的）：采用的是内存复制，先扩容空间，再追加数据

 public static final Cumulator MERGE_CUMULATOR = new Cumulator() {
        @Override
        public ByteBuf cumulate(ByteBufAllocator alloc, ByteBuf cumulation, ByteBuf in) {
            try {
                final ByteBuf buffer;
                if (cumulation.writerIndex() > cumulation.maxCapacity() - in.readableBytes()
                    || cumulation.refCnt() > 1 || cumulation.isReadOnly()) {
                    // Expand cumulation (by replace it) when either there is not more room in the buffer
                    // or if the refCnt is greater then 1 which may happen when the user use slice().retain() or
                    // duplicate().retain() or if its read-only.
                    //
                    // See:
                    // - https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/2327
                    // - https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/1764
                    buffer = expandCumulation(alloc, cumulation, in.readableBytes());
                } else {
                    buffer = cumulation;
                }
                buffer.writeBytes(in);
                return buffer;
            } finally {
                // We must release in in all cases as otherwise it may produce a leak if writeBytes(...) throw
                // for whatever release (for example because of OutOfMemoryError)
                in.release();
            }
        }
    };

 

第二种 ：COMPOSITE_CUMULATOR ：不是复制而是组合，先扩容，如果数据够了的话就直接把数据给组合起来，避免了内存复制

 public static final Cumulator COMPOSITE_CUMULATOR = new Cumulator() {
        @Override
        public ByteBuf cumulate(ByteBufAllocator alloc, ByteBuf cumulation, ByteBuf in) {
            ByteBuf buffer;
            try {
                if (cumulation.refCnt() > 1) {
                    // Expand cumulation (by replace it) when the refCnt is greater then 1 which may happen when the
                    // user use slice().retain() or duplicate().retain().
                    //
                    // See:
                    // - https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/2327
                    // - https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/1764
                    buffer = expandCumulation(alloc, cumulation, in.readableBytes());
                    buffer.writeBytes(in);
                } else {
                    CompositeByteBuf composite;
                    if (cumulation instanceof CompositeByteBuf) {
                        composite = (CompositeByteBuf) cumulation;
                    } else {
                        composite = alloc.compositeBuffer(Integer.MAX_VALUE);
                        composite.addComponent(true, cumulation);
                    }
                    composite.addComponent(true, in);
                    in = null;
                    buffer = composite;
                }
                return buffer;
            } finally {
                if (in != null) {
                    // We must release if the ownership was not transferred as otherwise it may produce a leak if
                    // writeBytes(...) throw for whatever release (for example because of OutOfMemoryError).
                    in.release();
                }
            }
        }
    };

我只想做的更好，仅此而已
