## org.apache.lucene.analysis.util
Class RollingCharBuffer

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.lucene.analysis.util.RollingCharBuffer

    public final class RollingCharBuffer

extends Object

Acts like a forever growing char[] as you read characters into it from the provided reader, but internally it uses a circular buffer to only hold the characters that haven't been freed yet. This is like a PushbackReader, except you don't have to specify up-front the max size of the buffer, but you do have to periodically call `freeBefore(int)`.

Constructor Summary
`RollingCharBuffer()`

Method Summary
`void` | `freeBefore(int pos)` Call this to notify us that no chars before this absolute position are needed anymore.
`int` | `get(int pos)`
`char[]` | `get(int posStart, int length)`
`void` | `reset(Reader reader)` Clear array and switch to new reader.
