ChannelBuffer.write*() changes the readable bytes

[hezjing]

Hi
Is it normal that ChannelBuffer.write*() changes the readable bytes?

For example:

ChannelBuffer buffer = dynamicBuffer(512);
// write some bytes here
...
System.out.println("readableBytes: " + buffer.readableBytes());
buffer.writerIndex(2);
System.out.println("readableBytes: " + buffer.readableBytes());

and the program printed:

readableBytes: 27
readableBytes: 2


The readable bytes became 2 after the writerIndex() is called (it was 27).
