Class ASCIIConverter

java.lang.Object
  cdx.ASCIIConverter

public class ASCIIConverter
extends java.lang.Object

The purpose of this class is to permit printing of debug messages with callsigns (byte arrays) and floating point data from a no-heap thread. With standard Java ways of doing this, we get MemoryAccessError due to the internal use of ThreadLocal by Sun RTS for character encoders/decoders (and possibly other things). With encoders/decoders, lazy initialisation leads to uncontrolled allocation w.r.t. to scope. Most likely the problem is that the thread locals get allocated on the heap.
