Class LittleEndianOutputStream

Implemented Interfaces:
AbstractDataOutput, AutoCloseable, Closeable, Flushable

public class LittleEndianOutputStream
extends FilterOutputStream
implements AbstractDataOutput

This stream writes data in the Little Endian format (less significant byte first). This is opposite to the usual data presentation in java platform. This class reuses code from DataOutputStream.

Constructor Details

LittleEndianOutputStream

public LittleEndianOutputStream(OutputStream out)
This method initializes an instance of DataOutputStream to write its data to the specified underlying OutputStream
Parameters:
out - The subordinate OutputStream to which this object will write

Method Details

flush

public void flush()
            throws IOException
This method flushes any unwritten bytes to the underlying stream.
Specified by:
flush in interface AbstractDataOutput
flush in interface Flushable
Overrides:
flush in interface FilterOutputStream
Throws:
IOException - If an error occurs.

write

public void write(byte[] buf,
                  int offset,
                  int len)
            throws IOException
This method writes len bytes from the specified byte array buf starting at position offset into the buffer to the underlying output stream.
Specified by:
write in interface AbstractDataOutput
Overrides:
write in interface FilterOutputStream
Parameters:
buf - The byte array to write from.
offset - The index into the byte array to start writing from.
len - The number of bytes to write.
Throws:
IOException - If an error occurs.

write

public void write(int value)
            throws IOException
This method writes the specified byte (passed as an int) to the underlying output stream.
Specified by:
write in interface AbstractDataOutput
Overrides:
write in interface FilterOutputStream
Parameters:
value - The byte to write, passed as an int.
Throws:
IOException - If an error occurs.

writeBoolean

public void writeBoolean(boolean value)
            throws IOException
This method writes a Java boolean value to an output stream. If value is true, a byte with the value of 1 will be written, otherwise a byte with the value of 0 will be written. The value written can be read using the readBoolean method in DataInput.
Specified by:
writeBoolean in interface AbstractDataOutput
Parameters:
value - The boolean value to write to the stream
Throws:
IOException - If an error occurs
See Also:
DataInput.readBoolean

writeByte

public void writeByte(int value)
            throws IOException
This method writes a Java byte value to an output stream. The byte to be written will be in the lowest 8 bits of the int value passed. The value written can be read using the readByte or readUnsignedByte methods in DataInput.
Specified by:
writeByte in interface AbstractDataOutput
Parameters:
value - The byte to write to the stream, passed as the low eight bits of an int.
Throws:
IOException - If an error occurs
See Also:
DataInput.readByte, DataInput.readUnsignedByte

writeChar

public void writeChar(int value)
            throws IOException
Writes char in Little Endian.
Specified by:
writeChar in interface AbstractDataOutput

writeDouble

public void writeDouble(double value)
            throws IOException
This method writes a Java double value to the stream. This value is written by first calling the method Double.doubleToLongBits to retrieve an long representing the floating point number, then writing this long value to the stream exactly the same as the writeLong() method does.
Specified by:
writeDouble in interface AbstractDataOutput
Parameters:
value - The double value to write to the stream
Throws:
IOException - If an error occurs
See Also:
writeLong, DataInput.readDouble, Double.doubleToLongBits(double)

writeFloat

public void writeFloat(float value)
            throws IOException
This method writes a Java float value to the stream. This value is written by first calling the method Float.floatToIntBits to retrieve an int representing the floating point number, then writing this int value to the stream exactly the same as the writeInt() method does.
Specified by:
writeFloat in interface AbstractDataOutput
Parameters:
value - The float value to write to the stream
Throws:
IOException - If an error occurs
See Also:
writeInt, DataInput.readFloat, Float.floatToIntBits(float)

writeInt

public void writeInt(int value)
            throws IOException
Writes int in Little Endian.
Specified by:
writeInt in interface AbstractDataOutput

writeLong

public void writeLong(long value)
            throws IOException
Writes long in Little Endian.
Specified by:
writeLong in interface AbstractDataOutput

writeShort

public void writeShort(int value)
            throws IOException
This method writes a Java short value to an output stream.
Specified by:
writeShort in interface AbstractDataOutput
Parameters:
value - The short value to write to the stream, passed as an int.
Throws:
IOException - If an error occurs
