### Instance Constructors

1. #### new PickleBuffer (data: Array[Byte], from: Int, to: Int)

   data

     The initial buffer

   from

     The first index where defined data are found

   to

     The first index where new data can be written

2. #### def != (arg0: Any): Boolean

   returns

     `true` if !(this == that), false otherwise.

3. #### def ## (): Int

   Equivalent to `x.hashCode` except for boxed numeric types.

   Equivalent to `x.hashCode` except for boxed numeric types. For numerics, it returns a hash value which is consistent with value equality: if two value type instances compare as true, then ## will produce the same hash value for each of them.

   returns

     a hash value consistent with ==

5. #### def == (arg0: Any): Boolean

   Test two objects for equality.

   Test two objects for equality.

   returns

     `true` if the receiver object is equivalent to the argument; `false` otherwise.

6. #### def asInstanceOf [T0] : T0

   Cast the receiver object to be of type `T0`.

   Cast the receiver object to be of type `T0`.

   Note that the success of a cast at runtime is modulo Scala's erasure semantics. Therefore the expression `1.asInstanceOf[String]` will throw a `ClassCastException` at runtime, while the expression `List(1).asInstanceOf[List[String]]` will not. In the latter example, because the type argument is erased as part of compilation it is not possible to check whether the contents of the list are of the requested type.

   returns

     the receiver object.

7. #### var bytes : Array[Byte]

8. #### def clone (): AnyRef

   Create a copy of the receiver object.

   Create a copy of the receiver object.

   The default implementation of the `clone` method is platform dependent.

   returns

     a copy of the receiver object.

9. #### def createIndex : Array[Int]

   Pickle = majorVersion_Nat minorVersion_Nat nbEntries_Nat {Entry} Entry = type_Nat length_Nat [actual entries]

   Pickle = majorVersion_Nat minorVersion_Nat nbEntries_Nat {Entry} Entry = type_Nat length_Nat [actual entries]

   Assumes that the ..Version_Nat are already consumed.

   returns

     an array mapping entry numbers to locations in the byte array where the entries start.

10. #### def ensureCapacity (capacity: Int): Unit

11. #### def eq (arg0: AnyRef): Boolean

    Tests whether the argument (`arg0`) is a reference to the receiver object (`this`).

    Tests whether the argument (`arg0`) is a reference to the receiver object (`this`).

    The `eq` method implements an equivalence relation on non-null instances of `AnyRef`, and has three additional properties:

    - It is consistent: for any non-null instances `x` and `y` of type `AnyRef`, multiple invocations of `x.eq(y)` consistently returns `true` or consistently returns `false`.
    - For any non-null instance `x` of type `AnyRef`, `x.eq(null)` and `null.eq(x)` returns `false`.
    - `null.eq(null)` returns `true`.

    When overriding the `equals` or `hashCode` methods, it is important to ensure that their behavior is consistent with reference equality. Therefore, if two objects are references to each other (`o1 eq o2`), they should be equal to each other (`o1 == o2`) and they should hash to the same value (`o1.hashCode == o2.hashCode`).

    returns

      `true` if the argument is a reference to the receiver object; `false` otherwise.

12. #### def equals (arg0: Any): Boolean

    The equality method for reference types.

    The equality method for reference types. See equals in Any.

13. #### def finalize (): Unit

    Called by the garbage collector on the receiver object when there are no more references to the object.

    Called by the garbage collector on the receiver object when there are no more references to the object.

    The details of when and if the `finalize` method is invoked, as well as the interaction between `finalize` and non-local returns and exceptions, are all platform dependent.

16. #### def isInstanceOf [T0] : Boolean

    Test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object is `T0`.

    Test whether the dynamic type of the receiver object is `T0`.

    Note that the result of the test is modulo Scala's erasure semantics. Therefore the expression `1.isInstanceOf[String]` will return `false`, while the expression `List(1).isInstanceOf[List[String]]` will return `true`. In the latter example, because the type argument is erased as part of compilation it is not possible to check whether the contents of the list are of the specified type.

    returns

      `true` if the receiver object is an instance of erasure of type `T0`; `false` otherwise.
