All or part of a mapped byte buffer may become
* inaccessible at any time, for example if the mapped file is truncated. An
* attempt to access an inaccessible region of a mapped byte buffer will not
* change the buffer's content and will cause an unspecified exception to be
* thrown either at the time of the access or at some later time. It is
* therefore strongly recommended that appropriate precautions be taken to
* avoid the manipulation of a mapped file by this program, or by a
* concurrently running program, except to read or write the file's content.
*
*
Mapped byte buffers otherwise behave no differently than ordinary direct
* byte buffers.
