public static ByteOrder![]()
![]()
nativeOrder()
This method is defined so that performance-sensitive Java code can allocate direct buffers with the same byte order as the hardware. Native code libraries are often more efficient when such buffers are used.

public String![]()
![]()
toString()
This method returns the string "BIG_ENDIAN" for BIG_ENDIAN
and "LITTLE_ENDIAN" for LITTLE_ENDIAN
.
