The order() method of java.nio.ShortBuffer is used to retrieve the buffer’s byte order.
The byte order of a short buffer created by allocation or by wrapping an existing short array is the native order of the underlying hardware. The byte order of a short buffer created as a view of a byte buffer is that of the byte buffer at the moment that the view is created.
Syntax:
public abstract ByteOrder order()
Return Value: The method returns the buffer’s byte order.
Below programs illustrate the use of order() method:
Program 1:
// Java program to demonstrate// order() method import java.nio.*;import java.util.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // creating short buffer ShortBuffer bb = ShortBuffer.allocate(7); bb.put((short)44); // using the order method System.out.println(bb.order()); }} |
Output:
LITTLE_ENDIAN
