Prepare an object to be reused by a different user. Implementors of this method must make sure that any data from previous users is cleared.

Parameters:

value - The object which must be prepared for reuse.

Returns:

true if this object can be reused, false otherwise (for example if the size of the offered buffer is too small). After returning false destroy(T) will be called.
