The mark() method of java.nio.IntBuffer Class is used to mark the current position of this IntBuffer as the mark of this buffer.

Syntax:

public final IntBuffer mark()

Parameter: The method do not take any parameter.

Return Value: This method returns this IntBuffer after setting the buffer’s mark at the current position.

Below are the examples to illustrate the mark() method:

Examples 1:




// Java program to demonstrate
// mark() method
  
import java.nio.*;
import java.util.*;
  
public class GFG {
  
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
  
        try {
  
            int[] farr = { 10, 20, 30, 40 };
  
            // creating object of IntBuffer
            // and allocating size capacity
            IntBuffer ib = IntBuffer.wrap(farr);
  
            // try to set the position at index 2
            ib.position(2);
  
            // Set this buffer mark position
            // using mark() method
            ib.mark();
  
            // try to set the position at index 4
            ib.position(4);
  
            // display position
            System.out.println("position before reset: "
                               + ib.position());
  
            // try to call reset() to restore
            // to the position we marked
            ib.reset();
  
            // display position
            System.out.println("position after reset: "
                               + ib.position());
        }
  
        catch (InvalidMarkException e) {
            System.out.println("New position "
                               + "is less than "
                               + "the position "
                               + "marked before ");
            System.out.println("Exception throws: "
                               + e);
        }
    }
}


Output:

position before reset: 4
position after reset: 2

Examples 2: To demonstrate InvalidMarkException




// Java program to demonstrate
// mark() method
  
import java.nio.*;
import java.util.*;
  
public class GFG {
  
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
  
        try {
  
            int[] farr = { 10, 20, 30, 40 };
  
            // creating object of IntBuffer
            // and allocating size capacity
            IntBuffer ib = IntBuffer.wrap(farr);
  
            // try to set the position at index 2
            ib.position(2);
  
            // Set this buffer mark position
            // using mark() method
            ib.mark();
  
            // try to set the position at index 1
            ib.position(1);
  
            // display position
            System.out.println("position before reset: "
                               + ib.position());
  
            // try to call reset() to restore
            // to the position we marked
            ib.reset();
  
            // display position
            System.out.println("position after reset: "
                               + ib.position());
        }
  
        catch (InvalidMarkException e) {
            System.out.println("\nNew position "
                               + "is less than "
                               + "the position "
                               + "marked before ");
            System.out.println("Exception throws: "
                               + e);
        }
    }
}


Output:

position before reset: 1

New position is less than the position marked before 
Exception throws: java.nio.InvalidMarkException
