/**
 * The management interface for a buffer pool, for example a pool of
 * {@link java.nio.ByteBuffer#allocateDirect direct} or {@link
 * java.nio.MappedByteBuffer mapped} buffers.
 *
 * <p> A class implementing this interface is an
 * {@link javax.management.MXBean}. A Java
 * virtual machine has one or more implementations of this interface. The {@link
 * java.lang.management.ManagementFactory#getPlatformMXBeans getPlatformMXBeans}
 * method can be used to obtain the list of {@code BufferPoolMXBean} objects
 * representing the management interfaces for pools of buffers as follows:
 * <pre>
 *     List&lt;BufferPoolMXBean&gt; pools = ManagementFactory.getPlatformMXBeans(BufferPoolMXBean.class);
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p> The management interfaces are also registered with the platform {@link
 * javax.management.MBeanServer MBeanServer}. The {@link
 * javax.management.ObjectName ObjectName} that uniquely identifies the
 * management interface within the {@code MBeanServer} takes the form:
 * <pre>
 *     java.nio:type=BufferPool,name=<i>pool name</i>
 * </pre>
 * where <em>pool name</em> is the {@link #getName name} of the buffer pool.

 * @since   1.7
