From class
java.lang.Object
Object
|
clone()
Creates and returns a copy of this object.
|
boolean
|
equals(Object obj)
Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
|
void
|
finalize()
Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection
determines that there are no more references to the object.
|
final
Class<?>
|
getClass()
Returns the runtime class of this Object .
|
int
|
hashCode()
Returns a hash code value for the object.
|
final
void
|
notify()
Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's
monitor.
|
final
void
|
notifyAll()
Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.
|
String
|
toString()
Returns a string representation of the object.
|
final
void
|
wait()
Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the
notify() method or the
notifyAll() method for this object.
|
final
void
|
wait(long timeout, int nanos)
Causes the current thread to wait until another thread invokes the
notify() method or the
notifyAll() method for this object, or
some other thread interrupts the current thread, or a certain
amount of real time has elapsed.
|
final
void
|
wait(long timeout)
Causes the current thread to wait until either another thread invokes the
notify() method or the
notifyAll() method for this object, or a
specified amount of time has elapsed.

Fields
public
static
final
ByteOrder
BIG_ENDIAN
Constant denoting big-endian byte order. In this order, the bytes of a
multibyte value are ordered from most significant to least significant.
public
static
final
ByteOrder
LITTLE_ENDIAN
Constant denoting little-endian byte order. In this order, the bytes of
a multibyte value are ordered from least significant to most
significant.
Public Methods
public
static
ByteOrder
nativeOrder
()
Retrieves the native byte order of the underlying platform.
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.
Returns
- The native byte order of the hardware upon which this Java
virtual machine is running
public
String
toString
()
Constructs a string describing this object.
This method returns the string "BIG_ENDIAN" for BIG_ENDIAN
and "LITTLE_ENDIAN" for LITTLE_ENDIAN
.
