Class EndianConverter

java.lang.Object
  net.sf.japi.util.EndianConverter

public class EndianConverter
extends Object

Class to convert data from little endian to big endian and vice versa. Since the conversion is symmetric, there are no special conversion methods, just generic ones, e.g. the same method is used to convert a little endian integer to a big endian integer and vice versa.
