30   * Encodes the requested array of bytes into a {@link ByteBuf}.
31   * A typical setup for TCP/IP would be:
32   * <pre>
33   * {@link ChannelPipeline} pipeline = ...;
34   *
35   * // Decoders
36   * pipeline.addLast("frameDecoder",
37   *                  new {@link LengthFieldBasedFrameDecoder}(1048576, 0, 4, 0, 4));
38   * pipeline.addLast("bytesDecoder",
39   *                  new {@link ByteArrayDecoder}());
40   *
41   * // Encoder
42   * pipeline.addLast("frameEncoder", new {@link LengthFieldPrepender}(4));
43   * pipeline.addLast("bytesEncoder", new {@link ByteArrayEncoder}());
44   * </pre>
45   * and then you can use an array of bytes instead of a {@link ByteBuf}
46   * as a message:
47   * <pre>
48   * void channelRead({@link ChannelHandlerContext} ctx, byte[] bytes) {
49   *     ...
50   * }
51   * </pre>
