Method Detail

toInt

public static int toInt(byte[] bytes)

Custom algorithm used to generate an int from a series of bytes.

NOTE : this is different than interpreting the incoming bytes as an int value!

Parameters:

bytes - The bytes to use in generating the int.

Returns:

The generated int.

fromShort

public static byte[] fromShort(int shortValue)

Interpret a short as its binary form

Parameters:

shortValue - The short to interpret to binary

Returns:

The binary

fromInt

public static byte[] fromInt(int intValue)

Interpret an int as its binary form

Parameters:

intValue - The int to interpret to binary

Returns:

The binary

fromLong

public static byte[] fromLong(long longValue)

Interpret a long as its binary form

Parameters:

longValue - The long to interpret to binary

Returns:

The binary

asLong

public static long asLong(byte[] bytes)

Interpret the binary representation of a long.

Parameters:

bytes - The bytes to interpret.

Returns:

The long

toBinaryString

public static String toBinaryString(byte value)

toBinaryString

public static String toBinaryString(int value)

toBinaryString

public static String toBinaryString(long value)
