public interface BinaryDataOutput
Byte level output (i.e., for byte, int, long, float, etc.) should always be byte aligned. For example, a request to write an int should always realign the output at the byte level.
The implementation of this interface should clearly define if multi-byte output data is written in little- or big-endian byte ordering (least significant byte first or most significant byte first, respectively).

Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
---|---|
void |
flush()
Any data that has been buffered must be written, and the stream should
be realigned at the byte level.
|
int |
getByteOrdering()
Returns the endianness (i.e., byte ordering) of the implementing
class.
|
void |
writeByte(int v)
Should write the byte value of v (i.e., 8 least
significant bits) to the output.
|
void |
writeDouble(double v)
Should write the IEEE double value v (i.e., 64 bits)
to the output.
|
void |
writeFloat(float v)
Should write the IEEE float value v (i.e., 32 bits) to
the output.
|
void |
writeInt(int v)
Should write the int value of v (i.e., the 32 bits) to
the output.
|
void |
writeLong(long v)
Should write the long value of v (i.e., the 64 bits)
to the output.
|
void |
writeShort(int v)
Should write the short value of v (i.e., 16 least
significant bits) to the output.

Signed or unsigned data can be written. To write a signed value just pass the byte value as an argument. To write unsigned data pass the int value as an argument (it will be automatically casted, and only the 8 least significant bits will be written).
