How to read response's body without copying buffer

Hey guys

I had to do something like response.body().bytes() in an Interceptor, then had to recreate a full Response with the fetched byte to return a clean Request that can be parsed again, instead of just switching the Reader Index back to it’s beginning. That’s a lot of temporary objects to garbage-collect.

Do you have a better solution?

So basically, it would look like this?

final BufferedSource source = response.body().source();
source.request(Integer.MAX_VALUE);
final byte[] bytes = source.buffer().snapshot().toByteArray();

Will this solution also work with multipart requests?

I’m using Jackson’s ObjectMapper readValue that can accepts both a byte[] or a String.

Should I simply call snapshot().utf8() ?

internalArray() is package-protected
